As a resident homosexual, I agree. Everyone thinks I’m a weak little coward, when in fact, I’m the opposite.
r/HumansAreMetal has 1.5 million members, and it's easy to understand why.
When we hear about bad things happening, especially when many lose their lives at the hands of a few, we need to remind ourselves that people can be good.
"We all have an innate capacity for goodness—and this is the hope for the human race as well as the hope for each individual person in the journey of life," clinical psychologist and psychoanalyst Jennifer Kunst, Ph.D., writes.
"Side by side with our destructive capacity is our constructive capacity—our capacity to do good and to be good, our impulses to love, to care, to help, to heal."

According to Kunst, the way to make the most of your life is to harness this orientation toward goodness so that it has more and more influence over your personality.
"In the context of psychotherapy, we might even say that it is the aim of the psychoanalysis to strengthen each patient's good, constructive capacities so that they can be used productively to manage the destructive elements."
However, Kunst believes that at the same time, it is essential to acknowledge and own the destructive capacities because "it is only when there is a bridge between love and hate that humility, authentic guilt, and forgiveness can make way for healing and restoration."

My Sister and her family moved to a Rural area with only 2 schools from Pre-K to 12th grade where she worked at both schools until retirement. However before they moved she worked at a high school in OKC which is a huge school district. It's sad that the first thing she did when she started working at the 2 schools in the little town that they now live in, was to map every single cabinet, closet, windows, doors and ceiling tiles that could be used as a way out or hiding place. It became so ingrained when she worked for OKCPS and the active shooter drills, that she needed to know how to protect my nieces and every other student in the school once they had moved and got out of the city. My Sister was shocked that the two schools in this town, where she was working at didn't have ASD's, they only had drills for fire and severe weather. That didn't stop her from training my niece's and the other students what to do in case something does happen, which I know feeling the necessity to do that is incredibly sad.

There are several short documentaries on Miriam Rodriguez on YouTube that are really good to watch. I also would recommend watching some of the documentaries about the insane amount of Cartels that are in Mexico. At this point not even resort towns are safe and there are travel advisories for city and popular vacation spots all over Mexico. One of the many reasons that a lot of Southern states are desperate for stricter border security is because not EVERYONE that comes across that border has good intentions. Oklahoma is the crossroads for I-40 east/west and I-35 north/south and the amount of arrests that have been made for human, sex and d**g trafficking in our state is insane. Sadly that's only a small fraction of what is actually being caught coming through from across the border, so they need to come up with SOMETHING to help stop or slow it down.

Chris Jones 1 year ago
It’s actually pretty natural for people to freeze or go into shock when seeing someone having an emergency or being attacked. This is usually a response to fear - the fear that you are too weak to help, that you might be misunderstanding the context and seeing a threat where there is none, or even that intervening will put your own life in danger. It's no different from the reaction categories that people fall into if on the receiving end of something dangerous: fight, flight, freeze or appease. Most can't help their initial reaction and may not know what they would do until tested. There is also the bystander effect - the more people there are, the less likely someone is to do something.

It was before cell phones (early 80s) but the mentality was the same.

My grandfather, mom's side, was part of the Normandy landings at Omaha Beach. I never had any inkling of what he went through until seeing Saving Private Ryan. He rarely spoke of the war. I will continue to love him and honor his memory and the memories of his friends and comrades in arms who died fighting tyranny and oppression. Losers and suckers are the words of a Traitor.

I don't know what his badges and medals mean to a war veteran like him, but it's sad that the people in charge didn't have more left than a few pins in a wooden frame and it doesn't heal trauma or keep the nightmares away......these heroic people deserve a high pension and one should name streets, bridges, squares or buildings after them...🤷🏽 🎖️ 🤔

The awards are in an "I love me" box. Most military retirees and many who didn't retire maintain one. It's a visual history of their service and is not given them by the government. They are presented by his fellows or made up by the individual. My wife (retired) has one given by her last command and I (10 years service) have one as well. Nit picking aside, I agree on the pension and the naming rights.

The dam is called the Belo Monte Dam. The actual story here is interesting. She was able to fight back the building of the dam, and was partly responsible for getting the World Bank to roll back the funding from the project. The engineer in this picture eventually became an executive in the electric company, and in 2008 began pushing for the construction of this dam again. My cousin was a lawyer in the original case for the Kayapo people, but by 2008 he had become very sick with cancer, and passed away in 2009, so I am familiar with this case through him. Tuira was also working to stop the second attempt, but the dam was eventually built and opened for operations in 2016. In 2023, the current president Luis Inacio da Silva, created a new cabinet Ministry of Indigenous Peoples (MPI) and it's leader Sônia Guajajara, is an indigenous woman who is using her cabinet position, and the full force of the government to help indigenous peoples fight against these companies in court.

One night on his way home from an interview he saw an apartment fire, but didn't see anybody outside. He knew who lived there, as they were neighbors, so he jumped into the building and pulled a woman out of her bed to safety. When people called him a hero he said something like "that's way over the top, firefighters do this everyday. I was just a neighbor helping a friend". He is now one of the Senators from New Jersey. He also did a bunch of other really awesome stuff while mayor, is much loved in this part of the country. I volunteer a lot, and met him through that work.

Everybody using the excuse of "one single person cannot change anything" needs to read this. A single person can create an entire forest, save cultural treasures, can come up with ideas to change the world in a positive way, protect people, raise awareness .... and often one single simple action, like voting, can change a lot.

I live in Philadelphia now. In the neighboring state there was a Mayor named Corey Booker from Newark in New Jersey. One night on his way home from an interview he saw an apartment fire, but didn't see anybody outside. He knew who lived there, as they were neighbors, so he jumped into the building and pulled a woman out of her bed to safety. When people called him a hero he said something like "that's way over the top, firefighters do this everyday. I was just a neighbor helping a friend". He is now one of the Senators from New Jersey. He also did a bunch of other really awesome stuff while mayor, is much loved in this part of the country. I volunteer a lot, and met him through that work. He is such a good person, very soft spoken and loves listening to people. Anyways, if you can't tell I am a fan.

I live in Canada and never met him but saw him giving interviews on CNN and MSNBC. I like him a lot.

As stated before, sometimes we humans automatically feel the need to jump into dangerous situations to help and the feeling or title of hero comes much later. These moments shown demonstrate that we humans are not always bad.

Also worth a mention are the crew of Fed Ex flight 705, who successfully beat off a hijacker who planned to crash the plane in revenge for his imminent firing. While two of the crew fought and restrained the hijacker, the pilot put the plane through many acrobatic moves it was not designed for. He pulled off a barrel roll, a nose dive and even flew the plane upside down in order to aid his coworkers by throwing the hijacker off balance.
