While I agree with what Cahir says about why people may look the other way, I think people can evolve from a baser state. Everything changes, all the time, whether one looks or not. This play is part of that change and evolution to make better people out of all of us.

A whole people were traumatized by these monsters in black . It will take generations before this trauma ebbs out of our souls . Bad as the British were they drew the line at raping Irish children . We owe a great deal to Mannix for his bravery in facing down these Taliban thugs .
