Probably not much. She wasn't gassed though anyway.

I actually do think most people are good deep down. The problems start when you have the real ass holes of the world show up and they have a will to power. Mob mentality is what is going to ruin the human race. People are followers.

Humanity as a whole suck.

Human individuals are mostly quite decent.

I'm sure I stole that from somewhere, but I think it to be true.

Alright, so she died of typhus while in the camp. My mistake. I'm not sure if that makes a difference though.

It is the the fact that we have the most intelligent brains on earth yet we act as one of the most stupid that annoys me.

There is no doubt that we can be compassionate, kind and capable of beautiful things but we are self serving idiotic bullies regarding our role in the world and rarely give to the world but always, always take.

..and take away every other day of the year.

I am not some environmental soapbox dweller preaching to all and don't want to be either but I also see our blinkered ignorance in our role on the planet and it annoys me.

Anyone who doesn't recycle is immediately on my hit list. It is just pure laziness.

I am digressing a little here but if anyone thinks that we are an altruistic species then they need their heads examined.
