I think the original point was that Stimpy was making
was that we, as Americans, shouldn't let this defeat us -
that we should continue with our lives. What this has
turned into is a kind of one-upmanship of who has
had it worse off as victims of terrorism. Quanitifying
the various events in Europe and the U.S. is basically
splitting hairs. It's like saying we should offer more
sympathy for the parents who lost two children instead
of the parents who lost one child. A loss of life is a loss
of life...The point is, is that we continue life, mourn the
loved ones, and be a little more on the alert.
