Did you see this photo?

This photo snapped of a black guy falling asleep in the subway leaning against a Jewish man's shoulder has gotten a lot of attention. I thought I would share it with you.

    It is sad that a simple act of kindness is news worthy. In a perfect world kindness would be common.

    Dragon it's sad how the onlooker asked if he should wake the passenger. If the man didn't look bothered that a guy was leaning on Him, why get involved? I'm waiting for the undertone too hit the news in a negative way. I wish labels could be left out.

    I loved that, and thanks for sharing; I would have missed it otherwise, I think. The press may eventually spin it in a negative way, and I hope that doesn't happen. We don't need labels, we need kindness and compassion in this world. We could all use a little more of it.

    I thought that was a nice article... sadly enough the comments were horrific though.

    We are a country of idiots, it seems...
