I'm saddened by Tony's death just about as much as I'd be saddened by Gene Simmons death. Do I know anything about these people from personal, first hand experience? No. But I am aware of how they have presented themselves to the world, and I'm entitled to base my judgement on them as such. It says nothing about society at all - that's just human nature. |
