43. So you only want people who agree with you posting on your thread?
Otherwise, we're concern-trolls?

It's a public forum. I disagree with you. That's as much a part of the big tent as the times (most of them, thankfully!) that I do agree with you.

Just seems to me to be poor taste to pick on a man's funeral on the day of his burial. The color guard thing, I can see as over-the-top, I can. But I've been to funerals with jugglers and rock bands and such, as well. Might not be my taste, but it's a day for the man's family, and we don't have to watch.

I hate when "concern-troll" is thrown around too loosely. It's powerful, and I think you weaken it by invoking it on the day of a man's funeral.
