Audacity of Truth
Pathetic individuals post homemade stingray videos for ‘laughs’ at YouTube
You’d think people would show a little more sensitivity about this but for the idiotic it’s just another opportunity to score a laugh – at the expense of someone’s death.
I was at YouTube tonight looking for a music vid to post here, and a link to one labelled “Steve Irwin’s last video” popped up at the end of the music vid I watched. You know it’s not real, because no video of Steve’s final moments has been released (I hope it’s not, either). The ‘faux video’ has had nearly 44,000 hits but thankfully the viewer rating on it was low. There’s also one called “Steve vs. Stingray” which has had nearly 10,000 hits but the viewer rating on that one is low as well.
Have they no sense of decency?

Speaking of no sense – of decency or otherwise – Senator Harry Reid quoted newly crowned hero of the Nutrootians Keith “have you no sense of decency? ” Olbermann on the floor of the Senate today.
Isn’t THAT special?

ST below seems to better than the idiotic:
Australian Prime Minister John Howard said Irwin was a typical Australian larrikin who brought joy to millions of people around the world.
“I am quite shocked and distressed at Steve Irwin’s sudden, untimely and freakish death,” he said. “It’s a huge loss to Australia.”
Steve Irwin – known worldwide as the Crocodile Hunter – was famous for his enthusiasm for wildlife and his catchcry “Crikey!“.
It always amazes me how quickly people will use a trajedy for comedy. The shuttle disaster comes to mind with a flood of jokes that came within what seemed like hours. I’m ashamed that I find some of them funny (a good joke is based on negative stuff–but I don’t mean I find them in the sense of having looked for them, only that I’ve stumbled upon them, or they showed up in an unsolicited email). But it’s pretty sick that there are those that can’t resist crossing that line of decency. I mean, jeez, give it a decade or two at least.
harry reid is a moonbat loon and when he speaks NOBODY but air america heads and far left idiots listen but to say something keith, shoulda stuck to sports olberman says is beyond the pale. I hate olberman, he is so sanctomonious (sp) and tries to so serious on his show but it does not work, that serious look on his ugly face is a joke, but hey, we’re talkin about harry reid here guys.
No, ST, they have NO decency whatsoever.
That is disappointing, but not surprising. These same people would likely say, when a conservative attempts to speak on an issue, that the conservative is guilty of an ad hominem attack.
I think, in honor of Steve Irwin, that Metallica’s “The Memory Remains” might be appropriate. (It is on YouTube.)
OR, the Grateful Dead’s “Throwing Stones,” or Pink Floyd’s “Learning to Fly.” (Floyd is also on YouTube)
Okay, I will stop now.
It never takes long for the sophomoric humor of the Saturday Night Live set to begin giggling at the dead or dying. They’re just the intellectual siblings of the mobs that dragged dead American bodies through the streets.
They snicker beind their hands and giggle at misery. Worthless.
I don’t like people mocking others especially in a situation like that, but I did think that he was taking a lot of unneccesary risks especially when one has a family to look after.
These people continue to show us just how little and petty they are. What abunch of lowlifes. – Lorica
