Blaming People
I came across this article in a site, and thought how applicable the content is to us anywhere in the world
- If your teen-age son kills himself, you blame the rock 'n roll music or musician he liked.
- If you smoke three packs a day for 40 years and die of lung cancer, your family blames the tobacco company.
- If your daughter gets pregnant by the football captain you blame the school for poor sex education.
- If your neighbor crashes into a tree while driving home drunk, you blame the bartender.
- If your cousin gets AIDS because the needle he used to shoot up with heroin was dirty, you blame the government for not providing clean ones.
- If your grandchildren are brats without manners, you blame the television.
- If your friend is shot by a deranged madman, you blame the gun manufacturer.
- If a crazed person breaks into the cockpit and tries to kill the pilots at 35,000 feet, and the passengers kill him instead, the mother of the deceased blames the airline.
- If a local politician or government official has been proved of corruption but... Well, bygones.
- If a franchised adult magazine decides to.... Ah, nevermind.

blaming is my society's culture (i'm an indonesian). A shallow superficial perspective from a discontent feeling.
and the people who always blame the others, i think they have "sado-masochist" problem.
Yuri, I myself, am an Indonesian. But I dont see anything between blaming others and sado masochist thingy?
