A lot of what this kid said is the truth. But that all gets swept under the rug because it's seen as being in bad taste? When do people get to talk about all the jacked up stuff that this man did? How long does he have to be dead before it's talked about? Or is it protocol that after someone dies, you don't say anything negative about them? Does death erase wrong doings? Maybe I'm in a bad mood today, but WHO CARES??
SO WHAT?

As much as I disliked the man, I think that was a bit much. I too, am TIRED of all the pomp and circumstance and the rewriting of history. As I said before, this man did some HORRIBLE things that my community (and others) are still paying for. Yesterday, I was so fed up with all of the coverage that I yelled out,"JUST BURY HIM ALREADY, D@&#(%!". Still, I thought celebrating that the man was finally dead was in poor taste. Tell the truth! Nothing wrong with telling the truth, but some things were a little insensitive. But, I think that speaks more to my personal tolerance level.
