I mean like even if someone is for example criminal or scumbag they are still human and hoping for someone to die or make jokes of someone’s loss of life isn’t right. Or does someone think it is justified? I think it’s morally wrong.

    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.

      You’re making fun of dead people too. Ever made a joke about the Titanic? Or some war related joke? Or AIDS? COVID?

      Are these lives somehow less important, because they died decades ago? Or because they were anonymous?

      The reality is, that each day thousands of people die. And we don’t care. And that’s okay to a certain degree. Why are these randos above being joked about?

        I think you have a great point. Maybe we aren’t so aware of thing we say these days.
