Yeah I get your point and get it that people don't maybe have sympathy for them, bur making fun of anyone's dead crosses the line, at least for me.
Ah, that's because you're a decent human being with a conscience! I guess it depends on what you consider "making fun" of them. For me, I would want to make sure I'm being respectful to those who are now grieving., but ridiculing the stupidity and hubris of some of those involved seems fair game to me.
Agreed. Shame about the kid, though, apparently he didn't even want to be there but was forced.
I wondered that about him right away. I told my husband it wouldn't surprise me if the kid went because his dad wanted him to.
