Missing Shame

Would we get headlines like this if we/they felt shame?
Astronaut Charged with Kidnap Attempt.
State Lawmaker: Send Ninth-Graders to Prison to Teach Them Lesson.
FEMA Seeks to Recoup $309 Million in Katrina Recovery Aid.
Britain Plan to list paedophile web names.
Lost Greek boy "may be sex victim".
Indian Army and Police Tied to Kashmir Killings.

Lack of feeling shame for one's indecent, illegal actions creates headlines like these. Feel free to add the url/web address of other headlines in which a feeling of shame might have stopped a person's actions.

The above deleted post was my own.

I went to eat at my favorite grill & deli and spoke to the waitress about my two posts concerning shame. She and her boyfriend had been discussing the same thing the night before. She stated that one of the character traits people don't seem to have today is a sense of shame for inappropriate actions, deeds and words.

Small world?
