Is this wrong?
My wife doesn't get why I said "I can't believe the destruction from the tornadoes. It is just terrible! What a tragedy."
Wife states, "I don't get you. A few hundred people die in a tornado and you think it is a tragedy, but thousands die in the tsunami and you don't even care? You had no compassion for the tsunami victims at all."
My reply, "They were not Americans. It did not happen on our soil."
Now don't get me wrong. It was a terrible thing that happened to many innocent people in the tsunami. Just not AS terrible as a tornado on our soil. Is this wrong?
