4. Right on point!
I am glad to see this perspective getting some press. Jon Stewart touched on it with his guest Ali Allawi. He was almost embarrassed to ask how Iraqis can live, day to day, with that kind of carnage.

7. Gallows humor. A comparison with how others have to live. Taboo. Big picture. (nt)

8. Maybe not, but true.
It's all your matter of perspective.

9. I knew one of the victims.
Someone I knew had died so that Rall could get his punch line in. Fuck him.

10. I have known people who have been murdered.
Their deaths do not negate the pain felt in other deaths. I hear that you are hurting, but I'm sure Rall did not mean to demean the VT victims. His intent was obviously to draw attention to another, global, perspective on suicide muderers.

12. Very sorry for your loss.
Rall in no way mocks it. It's not a punch line, it's a point about the losses going on daily in Iraq.
