Avoid the easy explanations. Asking “Why didn’t they just…?” in the midst of tragedy is the way people make themselves feel immune from the disaster they see on their screens. Life is fragile. Our planet can be unkind.

Of course we need solutions. Of course we need to improve fire/flood/hurricane/tornado/earthquake/volcano/blizzard protections. We don’t do that by telling individuals they should have known better when their lives are in rubble.
