This is such a tragedy for the friends and relatives. And the saddest thing of all is that we still won't learn from this. Accidents like this keep on happening and NOTHING ever changes for the better.
There'll be a knee jerk reaction, everyone will pontificate, more regulations will be imposed but the core reasons will never be made public for others to learn from. We're doomed to keep repeating the same mistakes.
Four years ago we lost other government officials in similar circumstances - and four years later we have lost yet more innocents. When we will ever learn???
