That was the biggest tragedy of their kind. Or perhaps that was the biggest indictment against humanity. When kindness and decency became so rare that people no longer knew how to respond to it, or when having witnessed a kind act they felt the need to comment on something that really should be so commonplace that it never should be newsworthy. If anything should ever be so common as to be taken for granted, surely in the name of the gods, it should be kindness and not cruelty.
