"The death of one man is a tragedy. The death of millions is a statistic."
Sorry, but that's the reality we live in. There are mass murders committed all the time by companies and governments, and while we may stand against some of them (even to the extent where we endorse vigilante justice), we approve of, either directly or by our silence, many other mass murders. I firmly believe there isn't anyone on this world who wasn't complicit in some corporate or governmental mass murders, and as such, I don't think there will ever be agreement which CEOs and politicians to shoot and which to spare.
