how some of you can actually sit there and compare body counts on which is the
worst disaster!!!!! a disaster is a disaster at the end of the day whether 100 deaths or a 1000,and if you are a family member that lost anybody in
any tradgedy to have to walk around and see it advertised or to hear people compair their lost ones with others must be crushing!!!
Spot on.
You posted pretty much exactly the same thoughts as I was going to make.
This is in bad taste on two counts:
1. While the 11th September attacks and the 2004 Tsunami will always make headlines, there is no excuse for this advert to flippantly and needlessly
remind family members of both tragedies.
2. The suggestion that the number of dead in an disaster can measure how ''bad'' that event was is completely illogical and insensitive.
It's on a par with ''Holocaust deniers'' disputing the number of dead. As if 6 million or 600,000 murdered makes it any different.
