#19: It’s called “Morgue Humor”.

If you haven’t been seriously injured/wounded, or dead (I was for a short time, cardiac arrest), you won’t understand it. A way of getting away from the horror of these crimes.

I always wondered about that. The weird thing is... a real nasty Democrat (who has made America worse) will die and someone will post "Good Riddance". A bunch of people will jump on that poster and say that "we're better than that".

I've never understood why sometimes the average citizens will get mocked/goofed on, but the politician gets a pass.
