    can somehow lead to pulmonary edema.
    That sums it up rather well. The writer of the 1st article is a ****forbrains.

If the other fellow had admitted to being a kiddy fiddler, or had been convicted of being one, by all means bring that up in the obituary. Had he chosen to deny the allegations that he was gay, then it would be wrong to accuse him of being gay in his obit. As it was, he chose to come out and reap the consequences and benefits.
      Dude, you dense ****, the slander wasn't mentioning he was gay. God, what the ****.

      This is the exact same situation that happened last week where you were up in arms against the author. The difference is the guy who died last week and who was slandered in the column was a Christian teacher, and the guy who died this week is a gay man.

      And look at your reaction to both. Couldn't be more opposite.

      This is why you are a bigot.

        Ok, so let's get this straight.

        You think an article asserting homosexuality can have negative health consequences is the same as accusing someone of being a kiddy fiddler, and that the only reason he killed himself is because he knew in his heart he was guilty?

        Wow, and I'm the bigot here. You might want to censor all medical books!

          YES.

          The coroner already medically determined his cause of death as NATURAL.

          If anything, this is WORSE because while the teacher was accused of soliciting sexual touching with a minor, he was never proven innocent. This guy was proven to have died from natural causes and the article still tries to fearmonger about the cause of his death being related to homosexuality.

          The article was way out of line, and so are you.

          Yes, you are a massive tool as well as a massive bigot.

            The article asserted no such thing. It pretty much said that he was gay, had a wild life style, and suggested that this led to his death.

            What everyone is complaining about is that this contradicts the coroner's report, which stated that the cause of death was natural.

            Also, you're clearly trolling for an Asher rant.

                Ok, so you consider it worse that someone suggests to you that being homosexual has negative health consequences. You'd rather someone call you a kiddie fiddler. Gotcha.

                  Ben, the dude died of natural causes. It wasn't his life style. As far as has been determined, it wasn't swift AIDS. It wasn't smoking pot. It wasn't having a beer. He died. It was his time.

                          I'm wondering, just an aside, if person's lifestyle has the effect of making a genetic condition worse, or trigger it, is that still what's considered natural causes? A heart condition, drinks too much, dead person.

                          Or, a soldier gets a bullet in his lungs, later gets your basic flu, and the reduced capacity of his lungs kills him. (Are deceases natural causes, anyway? If so, would dying from AIDS gotten from promiscuous lifestyle be natural cause, too?)

                          Oh, never heard of the guy.

                            I suppose his SO and their new friend deepthroated the guy and one of them accidentally came down the wrong pipe. That'll explain the liquid in his lungs.

                              That really is all the article is missing? "Fluid in the lungs? IT'S SPUNK!!! (He's gay)"
