Case in point the two National Guards that got shot and one died. If I shot two people it would not register nationally. I am a traveling nurse and don’t know why people treat them differentaly ? I mean they are signing up and taking a risk doing so. I got empathy for families and stuff but childeren get killed everyday, or a nurse gets AIDS from a needle poke. Why should their lives matter more than yours?

    Simple there’s a whole lot less military personnel then there are citizens.

    Same logic of why do we hear more about plant crashes than car crashes. There’s a ton more car crashes. So the car crashes don’t register.

    There’s less military so when something happens to them it becomes newsworthy
