On reasoning like this we should stop wearing shirts because 200 plus
needleworkers died in the shirtwaist fire. Many dozens of them died
by jumping out the windows as hundreds of people watched in the street
below, yet somehow scaremonger Nudds expects us to care more about
some statistically confected "probably" dead people.
