People Dying

I know as we get older, we must learn to exclpext to see more death- our grandparents, eventually our parents, and after much time, our peers, and loved ones. But there's just been too much of it.
I guess we hear about death more because there is more media- whether it be social, news or some version of propaganda.
I am saddened by the loss of old friends to cancer,  aunts and uncles to cancer,  grandparents to cancer. I only ever had 1 grandparent alive in my life time and he died over a decade ago- cancer. Children that I know, teachers, friends' siblings,  coworkers, bosses, more children have been dying too- it's overwhelmingly sad. Car accidents, cancer, undiagnosed diseases, cancer, heart disease, cancer...

And then there are all of these humans that I don't know,  but that I weep for, that have died because of the cancer that has spread throughout America.
Ism's.
Opening fire in a gay club because you don't understand sexuality? Just murdered your own kind...
Blowing up street cars, airports, buildings, busses- exchanging lives for a cause because your educating your own kind on your religion?

I believe that pharmaceutically, we have the technology to cure or stop many cancers.
I know that politically, intellectually, socially and  biologically that we have the cure and need to use the cure, to stop, fix  the cancer that is inside of Americas police.  There is a problem with a few police offers and if we don't give them radiation then they're going to spread and I am deeply worried that they will infect the good officers and ruin any chance of a civil cure.  What on earth are we doing to stop this?
The NRA?
The Nightly Show was right, we did more to protect and prevent the same incident from occurring again when a gorilla was shot than we do our own kind.

We are all the same kind you know- human.

And my heart is breaking for us.
