Dead people are not "shit". What I find so incredible disturbing about you and

And I know you "did not mean it that way" probably. It still shows the attitude.

is an US citizen is wrong, absolutely no doubt about it.
But then you have to look at the dimension, like I tried to explain. Did you get
my point at all ?

Oh ? So because you live in "God's own country" you are some kind of supermen
who are beyond judgement and questioning ? I think not.
