It may be that
The reason that you still laugh at it, even though you realise how ‘wrong ‘ it is on a conscious level, is because the memory of witnessing the tragic and brutal death of a child is a traumatic one and way outside your normal experience or expectation, we associate all the heightened emotions we had at the time with memory, so when we remember it or reminded of it the same feelings return in the present automatically. Like when we hear a song from childhood and
brings back pleasant associations and which makes us smile or feel sad.
You are still a cunt for laughing in the first place...
