Steve Irwin on Southpark... DISGUSTING!

[GreyhoundGirl]

I can't believe that this is being brushed off as "just normal". A man has DIED, his family is in MOURING and there is a television show publicly humiliating him. You all may think of Steve as "just a television star" but that is not all this man is. He is a FATHER, a HUSBAND, a SON, a FAMILY MEMBER. He is not just a man on T.V. he is a living breathing person with a family that cares about him and that is currently mourning loosening him. Do you all forget Bindi, Bob and Terri so easily?? Do those children’s faces and the face of his heartbroken wife escape your minds so quickly? Can you imagine if your father died and someone made of funny of him for his death and the thing the he devoted his life to? Can you imagine how upset you would be? If any of you have ever lost someone close to you, you know how much this would devastate you. And no, just because he was a television star does not mean he deserves this, this kind of action does NOT come with being a Television star. There used to be such a thing as morals, kindness and caring about other people. Or is our world so corrupt that we have all forgotten this?

To me, if this really is the “normal” or if everyone considers publicly making fun a man who died while his family is still grieving ok then we need to stop, take a step back and rethink where the world is going. I feel that we already live in a world that widely does not care about the other people. I'm so glad that our public television is promoting this way of thinking.

Amen to that !

I, personally, don't see why people watch that show. Some of the kids in my school say it's really funny, and I watched on show and it wasn't funny. And the animation is way out of wack. It doesn't have much of a story, either. What I can't understand is why people would watch a show where, really, nothing happens.

Some of you are saying "it's southpark". SO, because this show does this all the time, that makes it less wrong? I'd think it bad enough them doing it once, but you are trying to defend them by saying "they do it all the time."

Again, that is just my opinion.

We're not defending them. We're just saying what the truth is. Most people know what Southpark is like, so the only thing we can say to complainers is that it's Southpark. We're not going into detail about why it's such a wonderful show or anything.

Agreed. I am not saying that it's a fantastic show or anything. It just is what it is. It's a show based on the creators opinions and just because yours is different doesn't mean it's going to do anything for theirs.
