I agree. I think unfortunately the cruelty that our society imposes upon one another ( even on our children) has been too taboo to speak about ( much less create laws regarding) until the advent of the internet and our ability to instantly share our feelings.

I do think we will see more encompassing laws as "the people" are able to respond so quickly and directly to our lawmakers.

Depraved indifference is the one thing that keeps coming to mind.

Not to continue stirring a pot, I do hope that as a society, we begin to more quickly enlist a means for prevention rather than live in the "woulda/coulda/shoulda" mentality of our past.
