For you to think we're getting our jollies off this is beyond weird.

You’re obviously a decent guy and it is good that this tragedy has motivated you to start thinking about this in a way that will lead to you start making amends.
However, I really think a lot of this is giving a free pass to people who can actually make a difference and who have coasted on these feelings for a long time.
Like our Prime Minister and all who came before him.
