I appreciate the angst that DU goes through when a scumbag like Breitbart dies. [View all]

It's happened a hundred times here on DU--- A dirt bag like Breitbart takes a dirt nap and the fine folks at DU begin their first sentence with---"I take no joy in a person dying" --or--- "not to grave dance" ---or---"sorry to his wife and kids".... etc...

See here is the difference with folks on the left.... At least we try.

We try for a couple of minutes or sentences to show a bit of humanity---but after that we say fuck it... enjoy the worm dirt.

Oh I'm certain that there is great joy here at DU that this cancerous puss ball will no longer stain this world of his hate filled bullshit--- but it is nice to see our angst when expressing it.
