wait I thought they weren't atacking the actual stadium but rather somewhere close to it. One of the bombs was directly on one of the stadiums exit. | ||

For the vast majority of us reading the latest speculation of a media industry going crazy is not going to change anything. You could go to sleep now, read about it all in the morning paper and be no worse off. F5ing the death count over and over at a certain point becomes tragedy voyeurism about events you have no control over nor stake in. Is anyone here saving back some sadness so they can be twice as sad if the death count doubles? Personally I'm already at maximum sympathy for the victims. A discussion of the broader impact, context and importance of this event seems reasonable enough to try. That'll be the lasting legacy of tonight to the people not directly affected. You're not going to find many people who, if you actually ask them in your own idealistic terms, think that someone's life doesn't have value or that some people are less than human. What people who disagree with you think is more aligned with the real world. That as promising as life looks for all the people wanting residency in Europe, it's not really practical for parts of Europe to handle so many Syrian refugees the way that they're trying now. That such efforts ultimately hurt both sides. It's an objection on the grounds of the reality circumstances right now, and you want to refute it by appealing to a utopian principle. | ||
