People really don't pay a whole lot of attention to things outside of themselves.]]> 2021-11-18 18:18:34 UTC https://padlet.com/basgalledt/currenteventdiscussion5/wish/1900256781 is society aware of warning signs in public situations? 9040211 https://padlet.com/basgalledt/currenteventdiscussion5/wish/1900261370 In a lot, but not all situations, the public is hard-of-seeing when it comes to warning signs. We as people are usually oblivious to bad things... and maybe its just the fact that we would rather ignore them & put them on the back burner, rather then address it then & there.]]> 2021-11-18 18:20:45 UTC https://padlet.com/basgalledt/currenteventdiscussion5/wish/1900261370 Julia G 9002131 https://padlet.com/basgalledt/currenteventdiscussion5/wish/1900262142 I think that people ignore the warning signs until something that is on the warning sign actually occurs. Even then some people still ignore it.]]> 2021-11-18 18:21:07 UTC https://padlet.com/basgalledt/currenteventdiscussion5/wish/1900262142 Lauren McCarthy 9033923 https://padlet.com/basgalledt/currenteventdiscussion5/wish/1900262208 I know people see the warning signs and just sort of walk past them. sort of like when we "accept the terms and conditions" we don't really read them because they are pages long (if you do then good for you). Most things we walk into knowing the warning signs but think "it won't happen to me" but it could. ]]> 2021-11-18 18:21:09 UTC https://padlet.com/basgalledt/currenteventdiscussion5/wish/1900262208 Paige Burns 9003933 https://padlet.com/basgalledt/currenteventdiscussion5/wish/1900262236 I think most people are aware of warning signs just depending on the situation.

I think in a lot of instances people just don't know signs in general either, specifically in social situations.]]> 2021-11-18 18:21:16 UTC https://padlet.com/basgalledt/currenteventdiscussion5/wish/1900262437 Andrew 9003281 https://padlet.com/basgalledt/currenteventdiscussion5/wish/1900262747 i don't think people really pay attention but i also think that people know and see the warning signs but they ignore them because it doesn't affect them in the moment and if it doesn't affect someone in the current moment then they don't care]]> 2021-11-18 18:21:24 UTC https://padlet.com/basgalledt/currenteventdiscussion5/wish/1900262747 Ellie Pollion 9002341 https://padlet.com/basgalledt/currenteventdiscussion5/wish/1900262992 I don't think that people are aware of what warning signs look like. I think that they only know what extreme signs look like, and are only informed of what possible signs were after it's too late. I think that we are taught what some warning signs look like, but not the less obvious ones. ]]> 2021-11-18 18:21:31 UTC https://padlet.com/basgalledt/currenteventdiscussion5/wish/1900262992 Shannon Hausler 9003334 https://padlet.com/basgalledt/currenteventdiscussion5/wish/1900263367 I think that warning signs are always present, but we often overlook or miss their warning.

The largest issue is interpreting and communicating the warning signs to other people. Often times, people do notice warning signs. However, many people can notice an event that serves as a warning sign, but if none of them can interpret what is to come, or none of them can communicate the interpretation to others who can help, nothing will happen to stop it.]]> 2021-11-18 18:23:12 UTC https://padlet.com/basgalledt/currenteventdiscussion5/wish/1900266649 I think people are to distracted by there own greed to see the warning signs and i dont think its going to change 9034483 https://padlet.com/basgalledt/currenteventdiscussion5/wish/1900266726 2021-11-18 18:23:15 UTC https://padlet.com/basgalledt/currenteventdiscussion5/wish/1900266726 Clare Frey https://padlet.com/basgalledt/currenteventdiscussion5/wish/1900267096 Most people are not observant to the warning signs or choose to dismiss the warning signs. People are very self absorbed and aren't aware of their surroundings. This can create unsafe environments that can quickly escalate.
