9. Fascinating...

5. He was a nasty, hate-filled, bigoted POS.

I will not mourn his death. I will not pretend he didn't spread hate and reciprocate by being silent at this passing. I will not withhold my disgust for him. I will not be told how I should acknowledge his passing.

FUCK HIM! FUCK HIS LEGACY! and FUCK HIM!

7. + infinity

You just said about all that needs to be said on the subject...

8. Sideways. Hard.

There is something unhealthy about some people are talking about a freaking love fest at his funeral. To me, your reaction is the much HEALTHIER and HONEST reaction. [phone]

11. Much as I'd like to drive a stake through his corpse's black little heart just to make sure...

I could never bring myself to disrespect even his god-awful family's moments of grief much like his has done to so many.
