You know Brock, you're bound to get criticized for this... but you make a good point. A person subjected to the same thing day in and day out... and in quantities... tend to get desensitized. Example: Here in P.R. we have stray dog issues. As is to be expected, you routinely see dead dogs on the road, victims of the obvious traffic that uses the roads. I've seen people from other places without stray dog issues be completely horrified at their first sight of a dead dog on the street. But years of living with these conditions tend to become immune to that. Same goes for crime-ridden neighbors anywhere in the world with high murder rates. Pretty sure at some point people accept it as part of daily life, and just keep on going about their business.
