It's not interesting because it's not representative. Pair this with some stat that shows it happens the same way most of the time and then it's interesting.

- bb88 8mo agoIt is representative because people died.
- Brian_K_White 8mo agoPeople die everywhere, at all times, doing everything. "people died" does not make an event interesting. "People lived" during the same event. In fact even more people lived. Was that interesting?
- bb88 8mo agoIf you lost someone, you might feel differently. And the people that lived that day, almost most certainly don't want to die like that. That's the problem with those style of arguments. As logical as you want them to be, it doesn't remove the trauma burned into the psyche of the people who lived that day. If you deny someone's humanity in your argument, you've lost.
