Someone objected to the shape of the headstone.

Mother has special headstone made for deceased 4-year-old, only to see it removed because one person was bothered by it. What.
It’s modern life circa 2017, I guess. Everything everyone does, always, everywhere, is fair game for everyone else’s mockery, scoffing, complaints, critiques . . . whatever. We can all speak to thousands of people instantly, or millions if we’re famous enough, so why miss a chance to #? Allow that type of thinking to become familiar enough, and pretty soon you get it in your head that you need to keep your fault-finding periscope up all the time, to the point where you’d even # to someone about a child’s headstone in a cemetery.
No. Check that. You’d feel the instinct to #. You wouldn’t actually do it, because that would put you in league people so nasty, so thoughtless, so totally lacking in compassion or decency of any kind, you’d quickly recognize the need to exercise your better judgment and refrain from such horrid behavior.
What is this in reference to?

Read the article at the link...
Tombstone was hardly offensive and was actually tasteful for a small child.....
Since this happened in England, I’m not surprised....
I think the Brits have lost their collective minds, they are so afraid to offend anyone....they are becoming French....
Marker was in the form of a star and I guess it bothered someone; plus it had the word “Soldier” on it so again it must have added to the horror that ONE person suffered. Happened in the UK.
Curiously, the BLOG-BOT stopped setting "Excerpt" on its postings, even though THEY ARE STILL JUST CLICK-BAIT EXCERPTS.
Geez, how dumb does it think we are?
Here’s a non-CFP source:

Ummm, NO. Why let BLOG-BOT steal FR's resources (that you and I pay for) so that it can make money it keeps -- BLOG-BOT Sean_Anthony is not an FR donor.
Let BLOG-BOT post the article in its entirety. If it's any good, it will encourage people to go to the site.
Someone needs to expose the name of whoever made the complaint and then let them defend themselves in the light of day.
I meant I read the article at the link.....
Please feel free to not read whatever you want.....
Or be offended by whatever you want..... :^)
A liberal.
So the problem really is it’s not traditionally shaped. Very HOA. But it’s also 2 years ago, presumably a solved situation by now.
Oh, oops. :-)
I'm not "offended" by the blogpimp; I'm annoyed and disgusted. There's a difference... I think. :-)
Absurd and heartless.
You know, if I were one of these authors that Sean is stealing content from and then posting an abbreviated version here at FR - I’d sue Jim Rob for his allowing this to happen.
I don’t think this is legal, much less right.
Smack dab in the middle of the continuum.Nice and unremarkable.
