Yeah, most of the Britishers with that quote/sanctimony on will be OVERJOYED and DANCING come the demise of one M Thatcher.
OTM

fact is, when some pieces of shit die, there should be dancing in the streets. fuck all life being sanctimonious, we need people to demonize, it's how we get through work each day...

xps - Agreed - it would have been nice if someone had used a real quote (there are plenty) but I don't think they made it up for this. If I had seen it I would have thought it quite pithy and relevant and probably wouldn't have checked it out too much.
xp - If it's sanctimonious not to "rejoice" in someone elses death then so be it. I won't be dancing/overjoyed when Thatch dies either. I must be a fucking hippy.

I'll keep believing the 'fake quote' and ppl who believe we had to A-bomb the Japanese can believe that.

xpost people get to decide for themselves who the 'pieces of shit' are in my own eyes. My main problem is the last two days for some people, as I mentioned earlier, have been nothing but fingerpointing and "HOW DARE YOU BE HAPPY THAT ANOTHER HUMAN BEING IS DEAD".
It's not like the other side was going "HOW DARE YOU NOT BE HAPPY!!!"

yeah the time to dance over Reagan/Thatcher's death was 1981

― suge knight rider (Neanderthal), Tuesday, 3 May 2011 11:57 (fifteen years ago)
Strikes me, Reagan did admit to being wrong/mistaken about some things.
Not Thatch, except for the sell-off of ITV franchises to highest bidder (which she admitted was a mistake), no worries (well not that many) on that one by comparison, Mrs.

Can't think of many reasons not to be happy about Mugabe's death, especially if it happens in office and not in some comfortable retirement.

I understand killing people sucks, but I don't know if I'm a universal "killing is bad" pacifist now. Sometimes, you gotta bust into a compound in Pakistan and shoot a guy and it's a-ok in my book and a reason to breathe a sigh of something or another.

So think Bin Laden had a backlog of posthumous tapes ready to go, like Yul Brynner's anti-smoking PSA? If not it seems like a big missed opportunity.
