I'm not splitting hairs over dead vs wounded.

The headline says thousands were gunned down (dead and wounded: total casualties), but the article says combined dead and wounded are in the hundreds.

I'm "splitting hairs" over the headline exaggerating an already horrific event by an order of magnitude.
