So 15 High school kids is a massacre by popular definition. Fine. Would it
be a 'massacre' if it was a gang war, and there had been 15 killed on each
side? What if there was 15 killed on one side and only 14 on the other?
15:13? 15:10? At what ratio is it a massacre? When there are significant
numbers of dead on each side (and I think 600 is a significant number of
corpses) is it still a massacre? Or just a whole region of sadly deluded
religious victims?
