If only the dead could argue their case...

I think it is important to take a critical look at past tragedies and mistakes, and work hard to avoid them in the future. Unfortunately I fear that many people would repeat them if given the opportunity and it served their idealogical and/or selfish interests, unless it was more convenient to do the right thing.

Those who care more about past tragedies than current tragedies don't care at all. They're just looking for some excuse to feel self-righteous.

Thanks for the quotable quote, but I didn't say nor imply that.
