Why has society become so degraded?

A Perth Father was walking with his baby son, strapped to his chest in a Baby carrier. He was approached by a man who asked him,
"Is that a real Baby"? He said,"Yes, this is my son, Cruz." and he pulled back the blanket for the man to see.
The man then forcefully punched the Baby. He Child was not seriously injured.
He was arrested for "Endangering the Life, Health and Safety of an Infant." He has pleaded not guilty.👿
