deriding the unbelievably hateful comments I’ve seen regarding Heath Ledger on this site

I don't find comments on here any more hateful than many other threads where people, politicians, actors, businessmen, and other posters are vilified.

The guy was an actor who nobody on here knew personally so it's not like anyone is slighting a loved one. He was a drug addict, he promoted a high-profile homosexual movie that got an Oscar from all the liberal elites in Hollywood...far from a good example for youth and he was most likely not the most stellar of men.

Some people on a conservative forum don't respect him in life or death. I don't find that surprising.

If those people have just DIED, then yes, there should be respect for them and prayers for their families. Sheesh, it's not rocket science! Whatever happened to being pro-LIFE and having respect for HUMAN LIFE of all shapes, sizes, and colors?

He didn't deseerve to die, and he doesn't deserve ridicule in death. He was a human being. And for the record, I think he was a good actor and a good man. Whether or not I knew him personally, or what his political views were.

Anyone who would mock and ridicule a young man who died at age 28 and left a young daughter behind because of what his "views" were is a petty and superficial human being.

Not anymore. But it is still apalling and vile.

BM lost the Oscar to Crash. What does 'elite' in this context? Anyone in AMPAS is an Elite? The idea of an industry award show is Elite?
