Heartless visitors mug for selfies at East Village blast site

Self-absorbed jerks are treating the East Village gas-explosion site like a tourist attraction, shooting grinning selfies of themselves even as rescuers search for life in the ruins where two bodies might still be buried.

Amid the backdrop of the devastation wrought by the explosion, fire and collapse of three buildings that injured 25 people, seven smiling women used a selfie stick late Friday to snap a cheery photo of themselves.

“Disgusting beyond words,” wrote a commenter on the local-news blog EV Grieve, which reposted the snap.

One of them used to work for Iowa Democratic Party, Christina Freundlich. I wonder what her DU name is.   

Other selfie-snappers included Christina Freundlich, whose LinkedIn profile lists her as a communications director for the Iowa Democratic Party. She posted a grinning photo of herself at the scene giving the peace sign.

Here are some other vile selfies.

I get the selfie.
I don't get the selfie when other people are around.
Are they afraid a stranger will walk of with their iPhone if they ask them to take a picture?
Are they that bad a judge of human character ?
