Re: Charlie Gard: Death threats sent to Great Ormond Street staff

I have as little to do with social media as i ca, like most i have a facebook account the wife uses for some game or other but even I'm aware of how unpleasant much of the social media is and society just isn't prepared for it. In many ways we are still an analog society in terms of laws and attitudes and the internet while i personally think is the best thing that's happened to the vast vast majority has become an easy way for those in society who used to be unacceptable to project their hatred, ignorance and violence to a wider audience and once it's picked up by a few like a snowball it rolls and we get to where we are.

While there are politicians and people i loathe and utterly despise i don't wish them physical harm nor would i threaten it because i was brought up to think for myself and have a decent idea of right and wrong. Many of the most active hate spreaders on non religious issues such as this are under 35 and their general attitude is more hostile and reactionary then those who are older. We have a big problem within our society that no one wants to acknowledge let alone discuss or try to rectify and it's getting worse and will lead to physical violence.
