I am sorry that I seemed judgemental. I had just lost my Father in Law within an hour of your post, and I was a little verclempt at his passing. Although you are rightfully so not impressed by my “saddening”, I hope that you can fight through the bitterness that you display. I for one, buried my Father in Law today, received his flag, and have a different perspective at the moment. However, I certainly meant no disrespect on your feelings. We all have to sort out the cards that we are dealt.
No harm no fowl. I just get so frustrated at the quickness people give forgiveness to idiocy. It is and has been getting worse for years. Excusing stupidity on the grounds of youth, or race, or income has become almost a religion for some. Most of the time a idiot shows themselves by getting an order wrong or being unable to follow simple instructions. In this case this young mans stupidity came at the cost of his life. As society demands less and gives more to the ignorant it's only going to get worse.
My condolences on your loss.
