Soooo.... I was going to leave it alone.
I have no problem with being criticized or disagreed with. As you said, it's a part of freedom of speech.
Would it make you sensitive types feel better if I said,
"...in my mind he went out in a fiery VX crash."
or
"...in my mind he went out driving his VX off a cliff."
or
"in my mind he went out in a gun battle wild wild west style."
The fact of the matter is that you as well as many others on here are very sensitive to the subject, and I can respect that. I was merely trying to make light of the subject by my first comment. For that I apologize to all I might have offended.
