Here's a few other real people........

Your point? I was including everyone and their families. The fact is,
people are crucifying someone and don't even know what happened. The
guy's in the hospital, have a little respect.

If someone drove at 120 mph through a city and killed your family in the
process, would you also have a little respect because he was in the
hospital afterwards?

That said, I agree that we don't know the whole story yet.

Respect is *earned*, not just given because a person holds a certain
position or just happens to be injured... The fact that someone just
so happens to be an ATP, cop, pilot, or even the President does not
automatically make him deserving of respect...

As was pointed out by someone else in this group a few months ago (I
believe in the "He died doing something he loved" thread), modern society
seems to discourage speaking ill of the dead or severely injured.

Yeah, I suspect political correctness will be the death of
civilization...

That isn't political correctness, which I hate, it is common human decency.

Yes, I would.

Besides, that comparison is stupid, because we don't know he did
anything wrong.

No, he deserves respect for being a human being.
