Reply #169: While I personally feel nothing much either way about the death of Mr. Jackson or Ms. Fawcett

I respect the fact that others are deeply moved, and need to mourn. It is the height of insensitivity and disrespect to insult people who are in mourning, and it speaks ill of the mocker's own emotional maturity and intellectual seriousness. For some on this board and in the rest of the world, Michael Jackson or Farrah Fawcett, or both defined culture during key parts of their life, a piece of their past has passed on, I am willing to give them time to grieve and adjust, it's a shame others will not.
