and most of them are mourned privately with dignity and not cynically manipulated to blast 60 nations

let me just say that I am not willing to see 60 countries blasted and networks that took decades for churches and social activists groups to build destroyed because we are compelled for some reason to mourn for those wall street stock brokers its a hard thing, pumpkin, but PEOPLE DIE EVERYDAY GET USED TO IT and most of them are mourned privately with dignity not cynically like this (how helpful to cut the head off the whole justice movement)

(wouldn't normally post on here but for f*** sake)

Yes, people die every day. But no, we should never 'get used to it'! We should protest all killings of civilians and protest the actions of states, especially our own, that lead to killings and death. Let's condemn this horror, support those grieving, and also protest and campaign against any 'reprisals' against civilians in Afghanistan or elsewhere. Never never 'get used to' the horrors of this world!
