This could be true. Remember the movie bowling for columbine?scanevalexec wrote:...Even if less bad happens in the world we wouldn't know it since the media is always hunting for more. If they can't find something cool to show (explosion, fire, dead people...) they dig out and old story...
But at the same time...I've heard OVER 5 stories in the past 8 months about a motorcycle death from friends and family. As in a friend's friend who came to a scene; a family member who's friend that had a son die...etc etc.
And finally I agree that it's carelessness. Some people simply need to get into a non fatal accident. And even then, it might not affect them.
