The human element of attacks

Tweleve people were murdered at a Navy Yard in Washington, DC.

And now we are learning about each and every one of them.

I learned today that one victim was a "really great man." About another I learned he had nine grandchildren!

Each victim is having his or her story told in the mainstream news.

A comment by an NBC "reporter" (on the Today Show, so is he more like a "commentator"?) was something like: "These people were killed at work. People don't expect their loved ones, when they go off to work, to die at work after doing nothing wrong."

Indeed.

So how about the 5,000 that die at work due to being injured so seriously that they die from their injuries?

Or the 50,000 that get sick enough at work that it eventually kills them?

Many of these deaths are due to negligence and recklessness of the corporations that employ them.

So what about their stories?

Here is yet another example of the news creating misconceptions about crime and what is dangerous.

This is getting ridiculous

From CNN:

Female DNA found on bomb fragment

Traces found on piece of pressure cooker

• Sources: DNA may be from victim or accomplice
• Suspect's widow tested for match
• Tamerlan Tsarnaev's cause of death determined FULL STORY

• Dzhokhar arrived 'covered in blood'
• The 'black widows' of Dagestan  
• See suspect play with niece  

See suspect play with niece? What does that have to do with anything or add to our understanding of the case?

 

 From Fox News:

• STATE SPONSORED:
  Suspect's Family Allegedly Collected $100G in Welfare

  
  • Anti-Death Penalty Lawyer Joins Suspect's Defense Team
  • Source: Female DNA Found on Boston Bomb
  • VIDEO: Judge Jeanine to 'Mother of Jihadis': We Don't Want You Here

 We don't want you here? What is that about? Why is that news?

The mainstream media are engaged in a "feeding frenzy" about this case, and yet there is nothing about hazardous workplaces, which in the past two weeks have killed more people than terrorism has all year.
