Compassion is the understanding or empathy for the suffering of others. It is regarded as a fundamental part of human love, and a cornerstone of greater social interconnection and humanism —foundational to the highest principles in philosophy, society, and personhood.

Yes, you're being VERY compassionate........asking about the dead and injured so you can use them to score political points.
