I know this might be a bit of a stretch, but how has technology changed our world in a violent way? Today several bombs went off at the Boston Marathon, and could this have been possible many years ago before certain technologies were made possible. People have stated that the bombs could have been detonated by a cell phone?? Really?? This is just wrong!! How can we let our world come to this? Almost 100 people were injured today at the race, including small children and family members. Looking at a different aspect of the race through technology, Hollywood stars were sending tweets out to the victims of this bombing. I think that this day was horrifying. Is technology going too far? Do we need more control over technology or would this have happened anyways?

I think that this would have happened regardless of where technology is at in our world. The human mind is a will driven machine that will find a way to solve the problems it faces. Although this can cause a horrifying outcome like the one that did happen at the marathon, i still think that even if technology was not as advanced as it is today the bombs still would have gone off due to a disturbing driving force that the bombers unfortunately adopted.
