Too bad those who refuse to see can acknowledge this.

Range Mom:
There was a comment on one of the FB posts the article shared that talked about how we assume mankind has evolved into some greater state of being simply because of technological advancement, but time and time again we see how the "civilized" nature of human behavior fades away as desperation sets in. For some, its a short tether that holds them and for others much longer. But in the worst situations, few will rise above that fear to retain it, and many will abandon their humanity

Mali:
There are those who think happy thoughts without a clue that we are but one massive event from returning to the point where humans turn upon each other for a morsel of food or drop of water. This is despite the fact that every major hurricane to hit the US has proven that evil is out there and so many will regress so easily.

We have not evolved as far some believe.  Under stress/pressure most seem to sink to the lowest common denominator unfortunately.
