Bystanders Encourage San Francisco Man to Jump to His Death

March 3, 2010 at 6:21 PM Leave a comment

A man jumped to his death in San Francisco yesterday.  Before he did, many in the crowd egged him on.

Read the Twitter play-by-play and read reactions here, as in this one:

The fact that I saw people in the crowd laughing less than 10 seconds after the man’s death may be more disturbing than actually watching him die. May he rest in peace.

Can you imagine?  Are we becoming a nation of barbarians?  What’s next?  Watching gladiators and lions tear each other apart while we munch on hot dogs and popcorn?
