Noel Gallagher of Oasis Pushed by a Heckler – a Victimology Lesson

In Victimology class we talk about how the actions of one person impacts many. This video is a perfect example. It would be tempting and common to look at this video and get caught in the drama. It would be easy to judge it and analyze it. I challenge you to do this: notice, that in a crowd of thousands, only one punk guy caused the whole problem. One guy put a halt to a concert and created negative vibes for thousands of people. Sometimes we forget to look at the big picture because we are zeroed in on the drama. We fail to realize how much we have in common, how powerful unity could be. Please take a moment to consider it. Just for laughs :)
