The Shame of Yesterday’s News
Although as yet
they have not released her name ..
I find myself again
ashamed of my own species ..
When turning to
the mid-day news, to note the BBC
consider it more
important to report upon the final
summing up and
findings of some high court judge
whose name
I can’t remember
regarding the infantile behaviour
of two contrived
pathetic WAG’s
and relegate the fatal stabbing of
a nine year old girl
from Lithuania into third place ..
And on reflection
I wonder if born in the Ukraine
what an outrage
that would have caused, these days

Yes what was important has radically changed in these uncaring days my friend. 'We have no inkling of what that little girl felt before her last breath.......................x
Thank you for your understanding & associated empathy my friend ... x
They make ya sick, those WAGS.
Truly true .. the only wag worth anything at all is on a puppy dogs tail ::)
I'm sure they never do anything - just live off their hubbies/partners/boyfriends. I know KP never does anything worthwhile. lol.
So sad, and your words ring so true. Thanks for sharing this and honoring a lost life through your words.
Thank you so much for checking in my friend .. a much appreciated visit for sure, and then some .. N
I've not heard or seen news the past couple of days, and this truly sickens my heart. I googled and found Lilia Valutyte, a beautiful name of the beautiful little girl I saw pictured. The murder of an innocent child always leaves me in a place where I can make sense of absolutely nothing, especially when it simply becomes a footnote in today's news. Her life goes unlived, all that she might have been and done lost through a senseless and cowardly act. Good for you my friend, addressing this. We all need to shout!
I really can't thank you enough for visiting these words today Bella and for your support and empathy ...................................................... We do indeed, all need to shout & together ...... N
Shameful! The way children across the Globe get treated these days. Mankind has gone insane. News outlets only report what people will tune in to see.
A small waif of a life gets annihilated, and stupid people get more attention. Glad you showed them for what they are. - Phil A.
you are of course, absolutely right Phil & thank you once again for your ongoing support sir .. Neville
