Most of us don't really want to know the horrors that exist outside of our 'civilized' borders, and those who do are kidding themselves. Either naive but good-hearted, or adrenaline junkies maybe. The ones who want to know are the ones who think they can change it. But it's a dream of self-importance.
In the end, the horrors are always bigger than the man, always in control; and they will have their casualty. Sometimes the victim, other times the hero.
But there is always a casualty.
