What can you just not stand to see?

Since the news media dropped the Vietnam war into our laps, we have been exposed to graphic depictions of many, many disturbing things. What can you not stand to look at? What makes you furious when you see it. Is there some image that has a strong impact on you. (I apologize if this is similar to any recent posts, but I just watched an SVU episode that got me going. 1.I can't watch: surgery 2. Furious: child abuse/sexual molestation 3. Can't shake: the image of the people jumping out of the WTC.

People making out in public!

Awkward situations. It makes me feel uneasy, even if I'm not the subject of the situation, to see someone helplessly search for words to combat an insult or to see someone be the butt of a joke who does not know it, etc etc. Also - like everyone else, I cannot stand to see abuse of any kind. I can't stand to see people conform... And most of all, I cannot stand seeing the same, horrible plot line in a Lifetime movie. ;P

(I mean animal)

-discrimination of any kind -child or animla abuse

people who are impatient with the elderly

i cant STAND to see a pregnant woman smoking---and i see it ALL the time. seriously? are you TRYING to kill your child faster? do you just LOVE the thought of an uncurable disease THAT much? so yeah- pregnant woman smoking is #1. #2-mistreated animals. i just rescued a great dane who is 4 yrs old & weighed 75 lbs....he was supposed to weigh 125. starved to death, and his owners also BURNED his back completely with a blow torch---on purpose. MFers should be in jail for that crap. #3-an unruly child with parents who don't care. whats worse than being in a restaurant or store where a child is throwing a COMPLETE ridiculous TEMPER tantrum and the parent just acts like the sky is full of rainbows and nothing is wrong. i mean seriously...control your little demons please :)

When one person uses power, money, or influence to get their way, solely for greed, pride, or enjoyment, especially when they do this at the expense of someone below them. This makes me angrier than just about anything else.

Rampant injustice in all its facets: the pain, suffering, atrocities, corruption, global degradation of natural resources for profit, paralysis of will to change...

oh yes and most of all i agree with others here, mistreating children and animals.......animals are living, feeling, loving beings and deserve to be treated as such in every way!

stupidity, laziness, assumption of rights just for being born, and the choice of ignorance.

1. Can't watch: people doing things to their eyes - like in horror movies where someone's eyes are gouged out or poked 2. Furious: animal or child abuse 3. Can't shake: Meet Your Meat documentary (I became a vegetarian the second after i watched it)

Manipulation or exploitation of animals/people who are vulnerable. People making ignorant choices. Fakeness. More specifically, I can't stand to see dogs riding in the back of pickups, motorcycles weaving through heavy traffic and gratuitous violence packaged as "entertainment".

Cruelty Condescension Narcissism Ingratitude Hatred Incompassion Bigotry

Abuse of any kind. And people disregarding or being cruel to the elderly. It literally turns my stomach and brings tears to my eyes when I hear about or see either of those occurring.

OVEREATING (over-induldging); which i am guilty of myself, at times. But i don't weight 200 pounds (at 5'5" tall). Sometimes we behave as though we haven't eaten in days; abusing our bodies to the max. It's most difficult to watch an extremely obese individual over-induldge. I wish there was someone they could talk to, or something (safe) they could take, in order to slow down/minimize the amounts of food they eat. Ultimately, besides not being able to find a good selection of clothing to wear, or have trouble taking up only 1 seat, or having people gawk at them, even worse; it can cause serious illnesses. Is the American culture and our fast food dilema encouraging this? I believe they are.

Animal abuse. And I'm not even the biggest advocate of animals, haha. I've got a few animals at home and they're like kids. I was watching a Family Guy episode the other night (which I usually think is hilarious), but the whole thing was riddled with animal killing. I didn't realize it until then, but it's hard to watch—even in cartoon form :)

cruelty to animals....it tears me up!

Old men in shorts

people who don't appreciate or do their best for their children

I can't stand to see people (especially my loved ones) letting themselves be battered to and fro whichever way the wind may blow. Happiness should be internal and enduring, not dependent on each day's happenings.

@PopeSkippyXVI ...waiting for this, too, to pass...
