He wanted to offend people, so nasty commments (and, the comment above was not nasty) are the tribute he would want.

Funerals, memorials, and tributes are for the survivors, NOT the deceased. Though some believe it's for them to pontificate: See Fred Phelps. Let's not try plumbing the depths, the way they do on the Huffington Post or DU.

Perhaps my wording was bad. I didn’t mean people should say, “I’m glad the old bastard is dead! Wish it had been sooner!” I mean a Christian clutching his breast and saying, “He offended me deeply! It’s a legacy no one would be proud of!” would make Carlin smile, because that’s how he wanted Christians to react.
