Meet Jimmy, a homeless veteran who suffers from post traumatic stress disorder and works a corner begging people for loose change. He sleeps in a cardboard box underneath a viaduct where he suffers from flashbacks, night sweats, and dreams of his dead buddies screaming for their mothers.
Or turn to a plea for physician assisted suicide, an end of life option that is is slowly becoming legalized in a few states across the country for terminally ill patients who wish to end their lives with dignity.
You may also be interested in a chilling description of animal cruelty that occurs every year on the ice fields of Canada and Norway during which hundreds of thousands of baby seals are clubbed to death for their fur that nobody needs.
The collection will stay with you for a long time.
