That being said, this should follow up after some time in a manner that isnt trying to make people feel worse than they already might.
A related contentious issue I've seen crop up on social media is whether we can talk about preventative measures in the wake of a tragedy. To which I would say: yes we can, and we should.
From average citizens, thoughts and prayers are all they can give. For politicians, I would sincerely like to see some ideas of how to avoid these tragedies.
I remember Will Wheaton and some other hacks saying this with the last tragedy. Bro, what is your wealthy butt doing to help being yelling on Twitter?
I was pretty mad.
Sometimes, the prayer thing can be a bit much, and some people probably CAN do something but may not want to. In that sense, saying prayers to avoid taking action is just not helpful at all. Go ahead and pray, but faith without work is dead. I've heard that quote a few times around the net, and I agree with it.
But on the other hand...
While I personally don't think prayer is legit, I am very much aware that others feel differently. I understand that my views aren't the only one's on this planet, and I'm mature enough to let people grieve how they say see fit. Would you really want someone to bitch at you for how you grieve, directly after a tragedy? No, of course not. So don't do that shit to them, that's also not helpful. It's almost as bad, IMHO. No matter who believes what, no one gets to dictate how we're supposed to grieve. Step of your pedestal, because tragedy affects us all in different ways. Religious or not.
