“When Reagan passed I was working at a labor union with rabid liberals. They were celebrating and refused to lowered the flag. I got so upset I had to call in sick.”
That is horrible. I worry about how we may be when Carter dies. I am sure liberals won’t like it and call in sick at least some of them. It really shouldn’t be this way on either side. It is strange to me to celebrate someone dying. I could never do it. I typicallly put Prayer for the family and friends no matter who......I don’t even get expressive when it is someone like Reagan because I really want to be neutral for all deaths.
I called in sick because of the way my coworkers were acting. I agree with you, just because another human being doesn’t hold the same values and beliefs that you do, you shouldn’t celebrate their death. Of course there are a few exceptions for particularly evil people.
