Actually what you are saying here is not a digression but is the heart of the entire topic.

There are many elderly or indigent folks who have no resources to get to and thus we wind up have stories such as this one.

We may be outraged, or saddened by these events, but where should we place the blame?

This won't be the last time we hear of this type of story.
