i just had this interestig argument with a freind of mine and thought it might make a good discussion point for here. seeing as most people here are american/anti morachy, did any of you give a fuck when princess diana died? i thought it was just an example of how so many people had complained about her treatment of the press when they bought into it all anywayz and then just felt guilty about being partly responsible for her death so they tried to make up for it by queing for days to lay a wreath or whatever.

Personally i didnt give a fuck.

The only reason I even noticed her death was that the fucking news and funeral coverage plastered every TV station all day long for a fucking week.

I'd have to agree with you guys.

But you have to wonder, if it were the other way around - say Bush dropped dead after attempting to memorize a four line speech, would Britain lend us their sympathy or celebrate like the rest of us?

I would recommend they mourn, since we'd then have President Cheney for a few months until he keels over from a heart attack... I don't remember who steps up next, maybe the speaker of the house or a similar fucktard.

Personally, I was pretty shocked when I heard that Princess Diana had died. I can't say I "mourned" but her death certainly make me think over the whole media business, and also the way the Royal Family of Britain behaves (all the trouble about whether to lower the flag for her etc...).

I didn't give a rats ass either.

But the degree of the countries reaction was quite suprising.. I mean, there was sod all on radio but mourning music for a few days after that, there was practically fuck all else on the news/TV either..

It was just.. insane..
