Some goes for OBL.
I can't say I was sad to see them go but I didn't celebrate. -

Re: Margaret Thatcher has died, according to Carla BruniThat be true but comments from people who wish to celebrate her death are really pathetic and make me disgusted with elements of the left.(Original post by sliceofcake)
I understand what you're saying but she'll have to die some day, even if today is not that day.
I really do wonder if people like that have any morals at all. -

I think there is something very wrong with people who celebrate the deaths of others. -

I deplore Gordon Brown, he is an idiotic backstabber and for that reason i have a cold hatred for him which is understandable but anybody who would go to the extent of celebrating his death really is a vile human being. -

I will never be happy a fellow human has died, no matter what evil they may have done, they don't deserve it. -

Re: Margaret Thatcher has died, according to Carla BruniSome pretty disgusting comments in here, especially on the first page. I utterly despise Owen Jones but I would not celebrate if he were to die from a horrid illness.
Grow the **** up, some of you. -

Re: Margaret Thatcher has died, according to Carla BruniWell to start with she destroyed the industrial base of the British economy, ran down the health service and schools to such a degree that it took huge investments from the Blair government to start making any kind of impact, literally wasted the tax revenue from North Sea Oil on tax breaks and breaking the Coal Miners.(Original post by maxcartwright)
why don't you like her?
The list really is rather exhaustive. Other than to tighten union laws there is not one thing that she did that was in any way positive. Even the Falklands War was caused by thoughtless defence cuts at the time...
