​​OPINION
IT DOESN'T MATTER
There was a study on college campuses back in 2004 that had an alarming statistic. One I doubt anyone will remember, but I never forgot. Empathy was down 40%.

I blamed it on the writer’s strike of the 90’s that resulted in “reality” TV and the entertainment industry owning the news. Two decades later it's manifested into what is now part of history and confirms my alarm.

That it doesn’t matter, until it happens to you.

What does matter, now that “reality" TV has become real? 
There needs to be real consequences for real actions.
