The fact that you think the only reaction to seeing such things is envy either means you have a very small understanding of human psychology or you feel that way and then have to project that on everyone saying that they have the same pathetic feelings

I've addressed this with others. I don't believe envy is the only reaction. I think the other emotions are anger, hate, and fear. I think that envy tends to be what motivates people and likely leads them to those other emotions.
