the worst blah blah blah in the history of ever

Ok, I'll grant you, 1 person dead or 33, it's a tragedy.

Unprecedented. Worst ever. A horror.

Hmm, has that ever happened to anyone else, ever?
Let's see

Gunmen killed the Shiite dean of Baghdad University's school of administration and economics on Thursday - the 155th Iraqi academic murdered in sectarian violence and revenge attacks since the 2003 U.S. invasion.
