Sure, people die of starvation and bullets etc. in war torn countries, but you expect that to happen. That is why it's shocking, and honestly I can't understand why anybody wouldn't grasp that?
I understand that dead people in Iraq and around the world is a tragedy, but at this point in time it's expected, this wasn't.

Why people tend to go off about abortions and other tragedies is beyond me? It's exactly why the left is so ineffectual. Go to an anti Iraq war rally, and there will be some twat there with a "Free Mumia Abu-Jamal!" sign trying to get attention. :roll:
heh, you're statement might resonate with americans...

but to the rest of the world, who deal with american foreign policy every day, and have done so for years, how are we supposed to empathise with you ? and should we ? and why would you expect us to ? 33 dead americans ? boo hoo ?...185 dead iraqis today, probably more. You know how I feel about the palestine, no need for me to wax on about that....

where's the weeping americans and round the clock media circus every time a child is shot in gaza by the american sponsored IDF ? oh ya...thats not shocking enough, thats expected ?......pffffffff


I'm not debating the tragic loss of life.

Yeah I'm sure 18,000 people are totally expecting to starve to death today, and that 100,000 innocent people were expecting to die Iraq.

It's just because these were people of privellage (as most of us here in this forum are) compared to the rest of the world, I can barely make the rent - but I'm not likely to go out 3rd world style at any moment - that's part of what makes it shocking, the other part is that these were people many US/European folks can more identify with.

Here's 18,000 .'s to help you visualize how many people will die TODAY because this great human society can't get it's shit together to pay attention or care or be shocked into action:

It was in Australia.
But if George Bush farts, it usually makes front page news down here & John Howard (our PM) is usually there to make some lame excuse for his bad manners.

yes it was. Here in Denmark the tone was rather quick to switch to an "oh no, not again! And Bush STILL won't introduce gun-control? WTF?!".

I can understand the shooting being all over the news in the US much easier than I can understand it being all over the news around the world.

If that's your passion, you can keep your disregard for human life to yourself. Just don't let it play out in a massacre .

heh, its just a coincidence that I seen that movie the other night
its a good flick by the way, if anyone's interested ...obviously its a horror
( it was shown on TV [filmfour]- before you suggest I ordered it off the internet to satisfy my 'passion' :wink: )

I found your comments on abortion amusing, only for the fact you seem convinced people are apathetic about it. Not me, abortion is a good idea. but anyways, i couldnt be arsed debating it.... I'd just love to see your face if you watched that movie - hoho!
