Two minute silence

[ciphergoth]

At 12:00 BST today, London and many around the world observed a two minute silence for the 48 people who died in the terrorist attacks on London on 7 July.

During those two minutes, approximately 42 children worldwide died due to poverty.

We are not going to let terrorists cause us to lose perspective.

Making a post that is supposedly intended to 'make people think' and then refusing to engage in the articulation of said thinking (the subsequent discussion) is the equivalent of knocking on doors and running away.

More to make me think about my life in the reflections of my own opinions, how one holds up against the other and do I manage to live to my own ideals.

I disagree. I think it's the equivalent of putting up a highly visible poster (and to me, that's a different thing from knocking on a door and running away).
