Oh FGS. It’s not joking ABOUT the death, how absurd. It’s making quips about the current political climate or jabbing at another post simply arguing what the greatest love it (perhaps being too touchy about it for this thread).

As far as death - don’t go there.

I watched - yes, WATCHED - my sister die horribly from rare cancer almost exactly 5 years ago. The pain of remmembering how her eyes were, how she writhed, all too much. Don’t tell me I haven’t seen enough. That’s enough for me.

I am very sorry for what your sister went through and I will remember her in my prayers.

Just remember that the thread was about the death of a good mother and her poor, shivering motherless baby. The idea of facetious posts was offensive to me.

I am a combat veteran of Vietnam and I saw a lot of good people die. That kind of thing leaves you with a sadness that stays.
