There's so much pain and misery in these that it's impossible for me to pick just one to share with you. Check them out for yourselves @ TIME Picks the Top 100 Photos of 2014

Why would you focus on the pain and misery? There are also images of triumph and joy.

You will scoff at this observation.....but you sure do seem to have a deeply negative outlook on life. What happened to you?

All worthy of thought and consideration but this one - one unarmed man, backing away from three cops in riot gear.

So much wrong with this.

Edited to add - So many of the photos are of protests. We Americans forget that our Constitution guarantees us that right and that its the job of law enforcement to protect protesters.

A man backs away as law enforcement officials close in on him and eventually detain him during protests over the death of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Mo., Aug. 11, 2014.

Yes, there ARE some positive photos. But with so many of them, it was just difficult to decide which one to clip and paste.

Which would you have done?
