Seriously, you may have hated her, hated what she did to your country for those 11 and a half years, but do you really need to disrespect a person's death? Do you?
If you answered yes, then i really wouldn't want to talk to you.

Death isn't anything special. It happens to everyone. It doesn't grant someone mythical status. It doesn't confer some air of invulnerability. Death doesn't make one immune from criticism.

"All men have an emotion to kill; when they strongly dislike some one they involuntarily wish he was dead. I have never killed any one, but I have read some obituary notices with great satisfaction." - Clarence Darrow

Well, you're stating the obvious. However, does the obvious excuse or justify those of us, and i use the term 'us' as in people in general, who take it upon themselves to show delight, jubilation, cheerful expressions, mocking and all sorts of generally-happy attitudes and taking great pleasure by showing those actions at the death of her?
I would imagine and certainly hope that some of us have morals, dignity and respect, which of course not everyone has.

Show some tact, show some respect, show some dignity, don't become the same as the louts from the NSA in Britain, or indeed the numerous party-revellers who on Monday 'celebrated' her death, a human being's death by making asses of themselves. Oh, and injuring 6 policemen in the process.
Fools!

He was born under a double rainbow, a new star appeared in the sky and the season changed from winter to spring. He was already mythical. Gosh, don't you know ANYTHING!?
