No you saw strong comments pointed at rude disrespectful people with one foolish individual being over represented in his displays of ignorance. If this is to be a family environment then some amount of respect is required, regardless of personal thoughts for an individual, that is the barest requirement of good behavior.

There is much behind the scenes with everyone, not the least with public figures. There are appropriate times for detailed analysis, it is not when many in the community are still grieving the loss of someone who despite any short-comings has done many great things for this country.

Yes, but this thread has been started to remember him for what he did, which was a hell of a lot

People obviously have a healthly respect for him and if you are going to disregard that then dont bother posting

That's fine then, just looks a bit overdone worshipping someone who once was.
Don't you think what the Pope John Paul II did was much more influencial for the world to be respected for.
