I was actually pointing out that people die in large groups around the world each day. And for the most part Americans only give a flying blue fuck it involves a fellow American. Selfish assholes.
Again, I don't understand on what you are basing these generalizations of Americans. I care, does that mean that I'm not an American? Furthermore, how many Russians (random example) are grieving for the victims here? It's hard to "give a fuck" about something that is happening thousands of miles away. The_Jazz nailed it on the head in his post when speaking of proximity.
