And, yes, it is your fault because most of you do read into what others post. You do look for hidden meanings, for things implied or inferred or insinuated.
But, to clarify further since you didn't understand the very simple, straight forward question, why is this particular tragedy so worthy of our attention and the tragedy of the various unreported deaths isn't? (Please note that I said "we" and not "you;" I'm including myself in this).
Why do you and others get so bent out of shape when I view these kinds of things the way Jesus viewed them (as show in the passage in Luke I referred to in other posts)?

not really, even JESUS would have shown some compassion in his question...
you asked a very point blank question in the midst of folks remarking on the sadness of the situation...and you are surprised that us dumb folk took you wrong...
no my friend, JESUS wouldnt have reacted that way. He would have added a little more to his question...
you are alone in this one
