im confused

i wonder if people really do care about others around them . i see so much of it on the news like with the immigration thing why do they bother , sure if it affects you id understand but if it doesnt why should you care. i always remember when a cop or a child dies or is killed everyone makes a big deal why? its not like its they are relatives and there is nothing that can really be done. they always brings gifts or flowers or light candles i dont see why its just a waste of time . i doubt it will dull the pain the persons that should cares pain.

why do people care is it to make them feel better about themselves or do the feel they need to care?

i wonder if there is something wrong with me because i dont care at all, unless it affects me in some way, why should i? am i missing something? or is everyone just pretending? if so why pretend?

there is probably more to say i just cant think of it, and please do not get hung up on the details about the cop or something because it could be anything from a child drowning to a natural disaster. and for the immigration thing it could be any law its just that one i hear about the most now adays

(and im sorry if this is hard to read its hard to organize my thoughts, im aslo if this is the wrong place i just thought it fit)
