Well, since you didn't QUOTE Harrier (something that's really easy to do on this forum and makes communication in posts a LOT clearer), your statement wasn't particularly clear, especially in light of the fact that the dead bomber has been misidentified as an American citizen several times on this thread.

Is that point clear enough for you? (I quoted your post just to make sure.)

I would have quoted him EXCEPT for the teensy, tiny fact that I have him on ignore and the only reason I saw what he said was because someone quoted him.

You'd know this if you'd just pay attention more before jumping to conclusions. Oh well, your loss not mine.

Boston Bomber - Does *Everybody* Deserve A Decent Burial?


The younger Boston bomber certainly deserves a decent burial. The sooner, the better.

Selective memory. Where were you when all the Leftists were out dancing on Margaret Thatcher's grave singing "The wicked witch is dead"? Hatred comes in all forms and frankly, a terrorist hell-bent on killing innocent people is more deserving of such public ire than a loved and respected world leader who freed a country from the chains of socialism.

I was appalled at some people's reactions to her death. Regardless of her decisions as a leader, she was a person with a family and I've heard she was a lovely person (not commenting on her politics because honestly I don't know of her that well). It's disgusting that some people applauded and cheered her death, but we can't refuse to accept the body of a terrorist who moved here as a teen and decided to blow up innocent people at a marathon?

You're right - guilty as charged - I don't keep up with who you have officially put on ignore.

You know what though, I do have a question - why aren't you ignoring people you have on ignore? And hey, where do I apply to be put on your ignore list? (Just hoping that you actually do ignore me if you choose to put me on that list!)

What difference does it make?
Death is a part of life.
