you've never been in a profession or had a personal experience where you have dealt with mass trauma, destruction, or casualties. If you had you'd know that is one of the ways those of us who have dealt with such things maintain our sanity.

Sorry if it upset you, it's a perfectly natural and necessary method for those involved in such things to keep going otherwise you can get just get overwhelmed. It's also completely appropriate for that person to post those feelings on a site like this one.
