I work differently than you... a 13 year old is quite expendable so far as I am concerned, and is hardly likely to be a personality worth getting choked up over.

Plenty of us go out that way. More concerning to me than the brutal torment he endured before he died... is how deeply did it psychologically damaged the brutalizers.
Quote:I wouldn't wish that kind of suffering on anyone. It's easy to be dismissive when it's not you isn't it.
He's dead. That doesn't mean I particularly appreciate torture... and infact am entirely on board with Zaeed at 1:20... and was before he said it.

I dismiss the dead as what they are. He was no friend of mine, he was not known to me, he was not near me, he was not anything to me. And he never will be more than an event. Not a person... not something to get worked up over... just a battered corpse brutalized for protesting a dictatorship within its power.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
