I can still be shocked

[Catherine]

Sometimes I think I have heard it all and nothing can shock me. I guess I am wrong.

A woman pushed her own dog in the water and watched it drown.

What is the matter with people. Have they no empathy at all?

I overheard two people talking on the bus. They were right behind me and talking loudly. The young guy was describing eating frog legs at a restaurant. Then he said "The best part is the frog is still alive on the plate watching you eat his legs"
I turned and looked and he looked like a normal person. 

How can people who appear to be normal have such a total lack of  any compassion, empathy or any shred of human decency?
