Well said, RgrF. And that is just ours and doesn't include the value of lives affected by injuries and those deaths, including families, friends, etc. of the dead and of the wounded.
You can't treat other people like their lives are worth less than ours. Funny thing about life, the way you treat others is so often the way you end up being treated.
Those who live by the sword are destined to die by the sword, and those who do not study history repeat it. Violence begets violence. There is no end to it, all it does is escalate, until everyone is dead.
