And you have a million moments (i'm sure) to speak freely and not care about anyone elses feelings or opinions, but your own. I don't think a moment of silence is a nomination of a particular event being more tragic than another. It is the observation of an event being tragic period, and just because you may not view that event as being tragic or less tragic than another more tragic event does not justify showing a lack of respect toward someone who was profoundly affected by that tragedy
