Everyone should have the decency to avoid throwing crap in someone's memorial thread. It is called respect for the dead, of both sides.

I believe the reason you're not seeing this "debate" is that the other side has wisely chosen to stay away. I don't think this thread would be a good place to have it.

RIP, Rachel I know that you had people who loved, cared about and now miss you.
