Violence

32 die in multiple attacks.

170 die in multiple attacks.

One of these happens almost every single day. The other happens once every few years, if that often. Yet it is the infrequent which shocks. Why? There is no difference. In both innocent people are killed. Both are despicable. We should do something to prevent both in the future, yet I fear we're only going to take steps to try and prevent the event in which 32 died.
