When someone passes, for myself, there is nothing more rude and obnoxious than turn a eulogy into a public service announcement. Promoting propaganda on eating habits to fit one’s agenda especially when someone just died? Then with the implication they somehow brought it on themselves? Simply appalling...and in very poor taste.

@Trinity11I seem to recall the same thing happened fairly recently with another death but the thread was started in wellness and ended up getting either closed or totally deleted.

@Lipstickdiva , it is a frequent occurrence and many posters are noticing. It amazes me that it is permitted by the mods..

Unless it's about another poster, I don't believe in censoring or deleting any comments. They might not be to my liking or what I consider in good taste, but, public figures are fair game and people have their opinions. 

These people (public figures) are not reading this forum.

I get what you are saying but to me, common decency prevails.  I don't care if someone is reading the board or not.

My biggest issue is that someone would start a RIP thread as if they are sorry about the death when in reality, all they really want to do is blame the person for his/her own death based on diet or lifestyle choices.

It seems very disingenious to me.  If that's your opinion, start a thread about it.  Don't pretend to care about the death or sympathize.

I know what you're saying, but, we still have power over ourselves to respond, not respond, read, not read. 

I have censorship powers over myself.  I don't need a babysitter. ( @Lipstickdiva , this comment is sincere, not sarcastic or directly negatively at you. I'm talking about other powers that be.)
