Although it disturbs me that the thoughtless masses are emotionally swayed a lot more by stories of individual examples than they do from statistical counts of the same nature (especially when it comes to political opinions about wars); stories of individual examples such as this one, can be a useful case-study in order to prevent similar tragedies from occurring.
