Disgraceful and sickening

[fatmanlevi04]

I can not believe I read that only days after the Australian guy who was killed by the stingray, there are videos circling the net and computer games being created (yesterdays Star). This guy may have been eccentric but maybe that was his way of getting noticed to raise the cash to look after and help what would have turned out to be many dead or extinct animals, god bless his family.

[dot.hawkes]

This guy? You mean Steve Irwin? He was world famous and worked as you say for conservation of all wild life, why do you not know his name if you are so bothered?

[wonder years]

do you know when anything like this happens you always get sickos trying to make money out off other peoples misery they never think of the harm it does to the peoples families hopfuly they will not be aware of any of this and can greave in peace

[fatmanlevi04]

Because not every one is an animal lover and aould know his name ok? So I put the description instead so every1 not just youreslf your highness would know.

[dot.hawkes]

gave yourself stars for a cheeky reponse like that? very classy.

[fatmanlevi04]

You know there always has to ONe doesn't there that can't answer or give rather a credible answer just sarcasm, move on!

[wonder years]

yep you get some sickos, trying to make money out of this is adisgrace with no thought to steves family,

[louise jones]

Where is the video on the net? I havent found one.

Being the showman Steve was, he would probably be looking down on it all and saying ''this is great!''.

I reckon he would be more fuming at the idea of stingrays being maimed & killed through revenge attacks...and so would his family.

[fatmanlevi04]

I havn't looked but my husband said that the lads in Nissan were talking about Rotten.com and a few other weird ones, and as I said whether its true or not it did hit the headlines yesterday (if you can call the Star Headlines??)

[fatmanlevi04]

Thats more like the sort of answer I was hoping for thanks Pippa, I agree 100%

[Pippa68]

Well Rotten.com is a sick site and I would recommend keeping away...it is a site for disgraceful & sickening images, so if you don't like it don't look!

[dot.hawkes]

You offended me by not using his name, he was amazing how could you not just name him in your question at least once? have you just put a question together for the sake of it without actually being that bothered about who you are referring to?

[Lore]

I'm with Dotty on this one, what's so hard about typing Steve Irwin?
anyway, In answer to your question... It's just like any other celeb death, first come the jokes, then the links to video clips etc followed by a series of text messages which will question what so n so has in common with blah blah blah.

some people aren't offended by such jokes and some people are. It's just one of those things.

[fatmanlevi04]

and then there were 2 point taken rewind!!

[fatmanlevi04]

Boink will you come and kill this one......

[dot.hawkes]

Yeah Lore, it is like someone back in August 1997 saying, oh that bird was killed in that car crash. gets me well riled you know.

[fatmanlevi04]

Well Dot we havn't all got our bus passes sorry, and take a Kalm might just do the trick. Go and play with another thread, or you could get those knitting needles back out

[dot.hawkes]

You are mixing me up with another aber i am thinking, i am nowhere near buspass age, all you need to do is a wee bit more research and thought when putting a thread together, do you not have google? you could have googled dead aussie conservation guy.

[drestie]

fatman why are you attacking now?
lore and dotty are right.
and pippa, good point. some people are so insane.

[crilly2k]

Fatmanlevi whats the point in raising cash for extinct animals its too late for fcuk sake LOL

Dot....i'm suprised you missed that ;-)
