It's a very simple two-tiered thought process.
1) children are not supposed to die before those older than they are-it's against the natural order of things.
2) children are innocents and when caught up in some psychopath's warped plan, become today's headline.
We 're angry when kids are abused by pedophiles, we're angry when kids are exploited for some adult's gain. Because they are defenseless, yes, but more because they are innocent and know nothing of the horrors that befall them until it's too late. There is HUGE difference between the death of a child and one of an adult, regardless of the why's and how's and when they're the result of senseless violence, the tragedy takes on an entirely different face.
