I'm just saying I'm seeing worse. She wasn't hurt and she was being disrespectful by taking selfies in front of the crowd. As things get worse you're going to see even worse things than this.

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that's what you were implying. So then, you see someone being lit on fire because they had a dissenting political viewpoint and were taking pictures with their phone, and your first response is "I've seen worse?"

That's incredibly callous, at best, and perhaps even dangerous. If the first response to someone being assaulted for holding a differing political viewpoint, regardless of whether they're Republic, Democrat, Independent, Libertarian, Green, or whatever else, isn't something along the lines of "This is awful and needs to stop," then it might be time to reconsider just how you view humanity.

I come from a people that are pretty much wiped off the face of the earth. The survivors were pretty much ground under heel and forgotten. I consider myself to have a fairly positive outlook on humanity considering.
