			Hell, even Larry Flynt is dancing today. Wouldn't the world be a better place if he had fought FOR people instead of against them?

			HOW DARE YOU, ALL OF YOU? A man is DEAD! Do you have no pity, do you not see how you offend? Do you think you're fucking FUNNY? I don't think it's funny, not a goddam bit, so quit offering your goddam not funny opinions.  Sheesh... (Oh, sorry, I thought it read "father dead at 73. My bad.)

			Shame for his family and loved ones.  Also for the rational thinkers of the world.   He was always good for showing the reality of the other side in its purest form, he had no shame. He stated the reality of the faithful's stance with lots of publicity and who was on his side in politics, showed us who the enemy was. I loved having him out there. He brought more to rational thought than to superstition, I promise. |

			I agree, he was the best bad example we could hope for to expose the radical wackos for what they are.

			I feel sorry for his family and those who loved him.  I don't agree with his philosophy on life, but as Shawnee pointed out, he's dead so let him rest in peace. Someone will come along and take his place for those of you so ready to dance on his grave.

			It's terrible to be so pleased at the death of someone... ...but honestly, it's even more terrible that people like him are alive at all.

			If there weren't people like him around there'd be nothing to be moderate about. It's a matter of balance.

			He wasn't part of balance, but way far off the end of the scale.

			There's plenty of people way far at the other end of the scale too.  We have one of them right here as a member of the cellar.
