General   (General discussion, talk about anything.)

Anyone filming people in distress without helping should be arrested and their phones be smashed to smithereens. They seem to be totally dependant on looking at them constantly, even when people go out for a meal, instead of chatting, they're all just gawping into their phones. Sorry, I could go on, but I won't.

I agree with MrsC's comment. These people seem to have been de-sensitised, probably or partially due to them watching violent video games, and they becoming the "norm". I've said the same thing for years and too many young people walk around with headphones on and staring into their phones, totally oblivious to their surroundings.

There have been many times where such folk step into the road right in front of me, and haven't even been aware that I had to brake hard to miss them.

Like MrsC, I got rid of my mobile years ago as well.
