its not that the internet is wrong, its just filled with half-informed people spouting off about whats wrong with everything. If you listen to people on the internet, you hear about the worst things you can imagine.

Meanwhile, in America, the gun-crime rate is down, education is improving rapidly (Massachusetts students just dominated globally), we've got rovers on mars, and our health awareness is improving, even if that means I have to listen to idiots tell me about their ****ing Crossfit workouts on a regular basis.

I don't mean to diminish this tragedy, because thats what it is, but it doesn't mean America has gone to hell in a hand-basket overnight.
