This makes me _really_ uncomfortable - it's too close to leaving
wounded on the battlefield - still more uncomfortable when I see small
children on those rooftops. I can't imagine that it's any more
comfortable for the rescue personnel on scene.

I'm sure it's not. But, there are small children on those other
rooftops, too...

I know. I don't care much for that either...

That's being human (and humane)...
