But I guarantee you this sort of thing has happened within the last week or two in somewhere like DR Congo or Sudan. Because they're not westerners and the media benefits little or nothing from covering those stories, we don't find out about it. Would you care if that came to light? I mean, Kony 2012 was a really shit attempt at charity work by a shady organisation but the story behind it, kidnapping and massacring hundreds of kids, is the same and equally as disastrous. I know for a fact there isn't a single person here that felt the same way about that as they do this. Why grieve for those you can't help? Surely offering some monetary assistance into a fund to help the grieving families directly involved pay for funeral costs would be more welcomed? If you generally care about this, do that.
