I think it depends how they die to a certain extent. I mean I know that people every day are dying of old age and disease and getting run over and things. I don't really think about that at all, I think if you did you could never stop. However if I hear on the news that someone was brutally raped and murdered, or when people are killed by suicide bombers or horrendous earthquakes etc, I do stop to think and have compassion for them and those they leave behind.
It's a different kind of feeling though if it's your own family I think.
