Primal
79 people are dead and over 200 are injured in a stampede this morning at the 1st anniversary celebration of Wowowee outside Ultra in Pasig City.
It is almost incomprehensible how a celebration can turn to tragedy so quickly. But it IS easy to understand how people can heedlessly push their way through a crowd and run over anything in their way if they feel their lives are threatened.
Primal fear quickly strips away whatever veneer of social graces and civility we may have acquired since birth, proving once again that we are all just self-preserving animals at heart.
It's only when logical thought prevails that we regain the ability to focus on the sick, the weak, the injured, the young, and the elderly.
It's all so sad.
