Reply to comment by HEIMDVLLR in 2 Teens’ Deaths Underscore Dangers of ‘Subway Surfing’ by thenewyorktimes

The people joking about the deaths of children are vile. Absolutely soulless. “Hehe, it’s not like they were going to grow up to be doctors!” As if someone’s life is less valuable because of their class/hypothetical career.
