Would you care to point out what crimes Goody committed? What benefits did she falsely claim? What aspect of your, or anyone else's did she have a detrimental effect?

I make no excuses for her behaviour, or her ignorance, I was not a fan of hers when she was well, or when she was dying, but I bet everyone of us has a friend or acquaintance who exhibits one or more of her traits. Would you wish death on them too?

You can take your ignorance and (probable) double standards and shove them too

Can't we just leave her in peace now?

She never hurt anyone, and a click of a button your remote got rid of her. Parky was commenting on the state of tv and the media, and how it's been dragged down.

It's not her fault she became famous, and with the offer of wealth she's no different to any other talentless z list 'star' grabbing their moment of fame and £££s.

There are some nasty people on here.

Geezer,

I don't recall specifically wishing death on Jade Goody, but you may know better than me on that front.

She may not have commited crime or scrounged benefits, however she hailed from a section of society commonly derided by much of the Scoobynet membership. That's my hypocricy point, in case you missed it.

If you think I seriously expect the UK capable of creating some form of spaceship capable of reaching the Sun, let alone fill one full of undesirables, then you missed the hyperbole in my post

Notwithstanding that, I stand by the fact that I have no reason to be compassionate about her death, nor should I be expected to.

I may be ignorant (aren't we all, to some degree or other) but don't accuse me of having double standards Anyone exhibiting the former Miss Goody's traits would be neitther a friend nor aquantance of mine.

Wonder why so many who say that they are fed up of hearing about her can't resist yet another thread concerning her!

Not from this corner.

The hypocricy on this BBS is as astounding as the hypocricy in the media.

Calls for everyone from car thiefs, petty criminals, work shy benefit scroungers, etc, to useless pond scum to suffer the worst deaths known to mankind.

And yet people are "compassionate" when one of "them" dies of cancer (having ignored warning signs when she was younger)

Lets not forget poor Jack. The grieving widower. Oh, and violent thug.

You can take your "compassion" and, politely, shove it

Jade shot to fame because she was as thick as pig $hit! Now if that's not sending out the wrong message then I don't know what is. The NOTW described her in likeness to Princess Di - weren't they denouncing Jade as a racist bully not long back?

you what??!!?






All the magazines i buy would be empty

As much as i am irritated about some ****** pretend celebs i do love to read about what they get up to. Whether its making fools of themselves when drunk or whatever, its what sells column inches, and most of us read it.

I think Jade had two disastrous BB appearances, one that made her and one that broke her but i cant ever remember her getting pictured p1ssed up snogging strangers etc

What would happen if katie Price went the same way as jade? I wonder how the nation would react, just a thought

Many many people too will remember a sect years ago lead by an egregious man who had similar ideas to what you have just quoted. They of course were in a position to take that to a dreadful conclusion for millions of innocent people.

I sincerely hope that you do not personally think that in the case that you have mentioned, that a whole section of our society should be rounded up and deported for your convenience! Anyone who is of such an elitist nature should hang their head in shame!
