"People should have respect for the dead."

And why is that, pray tell? People should become hypocrites because someone isn't sucking air anymore? I also felt no added respect at the passing of Reagan, Saddam Hussein, or Peter Jennings. My feelings about each didn't change - my level of respect stayed the same.

Why do you have a problem with honest expressions of feelings? Aren't we "reverent" enough for you? Fuck reverence. Another life, no more or less important than any other, is over. Q.E.D.

As I said, the place I thought it WAS appropriate was on MTP. The rest was excessive public chest thumping.

Get over yourself.
