Nowadays people are becoming worse, here in our place lots of murderous activities have been done. Last year a lot of crimes has been expose, one for example is the massacre of certain families here in Angeles City where only one person is the suspect. There was also a news about a woman beheaded in a motel room in Angeles and her head was found someplace else. They say the suspect is her lover and i don't understand how can he do that thing he did to a person romantically involve to him.
No matter how bad their situation is, they shared something special don't they?
This month only 2 car dealer was burned alive in different places and to think that they were family men doing a clean job for their future.
I really don't understand how people are becoming more and more evil. I was thinking perhaps they have already loose it and do not fear God anymore. It is just so sad that lots of innocent people were becoming a victim.
How about in your place, is there anything worse at all?

hello dj,
I just posted my comment to one topic almost same like this.
It's about womans brutality and one mylotters relates the topic to same incident of "Black Dhalia" and also reminds me of the "Junko Fukurta" case (you can check links,but be aware of the warnings about pictures)
So again,i would like to comment that,this only proves that men are much dangerous than the wild beast in the forest.

In my country crimes became ordinary things. it happened because of two things. first: poverty, two: lack of law enforcement. If we cannot solve those two major things crimes will always grow

It’s the same in my place. Just to think that India is more of a traditional country where people have always loved to have an easy and friendly existence... nowadays, we just cant trust anybody anymore. Previously I remember it was not a problem for kids to stay at home alone while the parents worked...neighbours always kept an eye, even hired helps were so much trustworthy. Now, nobody is just bothered about anybody else...its just about their own personal interests. People are becoming more and more self-centered and materialistic in their equations with others. Its either money or self-gratification...conscience is taking a backseat.

Exactly.Self-centered.It's like virus, and it's spreading all over the world.But they forget one thing:if the world doesn't exist for them, one day they will stop existing for the world.As for crimes, they are the same, people were cruel then, they are cruel now.But good people were much friendlier before, now they become more and more distant.

It is because many people do not fear God and also that many believe in evolution. Believe it or not, if someone is inundated with the survival of the fittest, many start to believe that some do not deserve to live and procreate. It starts first as choosing what they consider the best mate based on what traits they consider survivor worthy, then it goes deciding whether their wife has the right to bear children, then it goes into abortion, followed by euthanasia, and outward murder of those who do not agree with you is the last resort.
I live in Winnipeg and it is known as the murder capital of Canada. There is news about drunken parties turning into someone hitting someone over the head. I live in the North east but when my friend and I go for a ride, we often have to drive through the poorer part of the city where most of the crime happens. I cannot give you specific examples as I do not listen to the news. It is so depressing.

Hi. djamarion. Crimes are everywhere that we go to. It is all around us, we just have not been victims of it yet. Many people are becoming more wilder and untamed. It is really sad. I am on the Internet everyday and I see all of the different headlines about people being killed over many different reasons. It is just so sad though. Life is scary and I do all that I can to stay away from possible dangers. I also keep God and his angels with me too. I know that with my faith God will not let anyone harm me or my family. I always pray the same thing for everyone else too.

In the Unitied States crimes like bullying is on the raise. So is people scamming people out of money,like on the internet. I also think there are more crimes concerning children. Like from abuse,neglect and abandonment. People do this because they think they won't get caught. I know people do crimes for revenge.
When you get down to it.people can be stupid. They don't think of can happen and does! crime doesn't pay! Never has never will!

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. Wisdom is the knowledge and the ability to discern between what is right and what is wrong. So this all explains why people are getting worse. The criminals are getting bolder and could kill all for their own selfish motive because they don't fear God. They could no longer discern between right and wrong because they believe that whatever pleases them and whatever is to their advantage is right. They believe no God and would therefore do whatever pleased them. Well God has a way with them. When pay day comes, they will suffer and will have to pay the price.

What makes you think that people are becoming worse? Crime isn't exactly something new.

Everyday people are becoming desperate and hollowed. Perhaps there are troubles in their lives that they couldn't handle and without no one to turn to, they snapped like twigs under somebody's foot. All that anger and frustration has to come out and and they vent it out on other people. It's really sad...

Crimes are the Extreme reactions of People in Search of Lust , Greed or Cultural inclinations , especially when the searches are non-fulfilled.
While the First two are common in all societies , the third one is more prevelant in the country side...where people are more inclined to their cultures ...
Crime is not new or has become worse in this era ...only that it has come out in the open in recent times ....
It will stop only when people either stop their search , or content with what they have ...

I believe that the rise in heinous crimes is connected to a) the decline in the values of society and coupled with the increasing culture of materialism.

A lot of things account for the occurrence. First of all,the criminals are degenerate,cannibalistic .In general,in their childhood they loved ease and hated work,in addition,family education,environment impact,social inequality,violence video,etc.are also the sources of committing a crime.Justice has long arms,the criminals will reap what they have sown.Fortunately,we have got good public order here.

well, if you come to vietnam where i live you'll find it horrible living as a Westerner. Besides I'm fairly sure if you'll go to central vietnam, you'll find lots of mugging, and also if you come, watch out for some unexploded traps, never know where they come. So in Vietnam, i've mainly heard about house robbery's where the person would be put asleep by a gas. I've also seen people on motorbikes grab peoples bags. All comes with the daily life downtown.
And don't count on the police, pay them a couple thousand dong (25000 Dong=1 Euro), and they'll turn you a blind eye to any traffic incident

two men were decapitated few months earlier in my city, and people say these were gang-related crimes. Gang? Al Capone Jrs? I don't know much as to why they do it, but I do know that...no not the cost of living, coz you can work that out, but because of wants,not needs, wants which are evil and so evil begets evil...reasons to do doesn't justify anything, it's the wanton destructiveness of "want" which destroys lives.
