but not for americans, based on replies in this thread, people don't just look to us for leadership and how to do things, they EXPECT us to and when we don't perform at super human levels, we are to blame.
americans all need to act like individual super powers at all times.

lol. It does make me laugh how people don't get that you can think both things (overseas deaths) and US deaths are sad. If you stub your toe and it hurts, you don'r think "oh but wait my neighbour is in a wheelchair with cerebral palsy, so I'll ignore the pain I have right now". One action/event/occurence does not cancel out another - the other thing still happened, and if it's painful physically or emotionally, it's still fucking painful.
What these cunts like johnnyclips fail to understand is, well, pretty much everything rational really (wait for the new 'ad hominem' catchphrase while he calls me a sheep and a lemming), but especially the fact that 2 things can be bad at the same time. It isn't a race or a contest or about what's 'worse', or 'bigger'.
I can just imagine these cunts going up to a rape victim and going "hey! you! STFU already, someone was murdered last night and actually died - your problem isn't a problem at all! you fucking lemming!" because that's about how fucking retarded this whole attempt at making a point is.
