The only embarrassment in this thread is the self-rightious crybabies riding in on their high horses as if they knew these people personally. You don't give a damn about them and neither do any of the other posters in this thread. Why fake the funk?? False compassion is an embarassment. The comment wasn't offensive to me at all. I laughed. There....you like that?? I thought it was very humorous. Now deal with it and shut the hell up.

His joke matters as much to "the family" as your solemnity. And by that I mean it doesn't.

Why is this thread still even open? It's going nowhere. No matter who it is, murder and suicide is nothing to laugh at.

Just how the world is. No compassion for other people and it's pretty sad. Reflection of how pathetic and sad they are. In reality if it happened to someone in their family it all of the sudden isnt a joking matter, and they wouldn't laugh at a strangers face without getting their ass beat, so they sit behind a computer and do it. hypocrisy at it's finest.

I dont understand how a grown man could hit a woman let alone choke his wife out... Any dude that hit's a girl is coward, same ones making jokes behind a computer screen...Probablly.

Like I said, I didn't find the mod's post offensive at all. You can call it hypocrisy if you want but it is what it is. And just as you claim it's hypocrisy to get behind a computer screen and type outlandish statements about someone's death, hypocrisy also comes into play when you have a bunch of people sitting behind computer screens acting as though they give a damn about someone whom they have never encountered before. Don't get all pissy and self-rightious simply because some people tend to take a more genuine approach towards the matter. Is it unfortunate, yes. Was the mod's joke in bad taste, maybe. Was it offensive to me, no. Not in the least bit.

I'm on the side that thinks the jokes here are a bit too out of character (although some of them are kind of funny), though it's self righteous comments like these that make the internet annoying to read. Obviously if this concerned a family member this would be much different. In the end no one gives a **** about a random stranger's misfortunes. People only care about a car crash if they knew the people in it. Doesn't mean people shouldn't have a universal care for humanity, but again what annoys the hell out of me are self righteous people.

I agree that people who say insulting and offensive things from behind a computer screen probably abuse women.

Unnecessary roughness.....oh, wrong sport. Wtf is wrong with people? You think its kosher to kill your wife and then commit suicide. 'Only God can judge me now...'

sad news but be real, some of the jokes in here are pretty funny as tasteless as they might be.

The self-righteousness in this thread is making me sick.

Update from the coroner. He has upgraded the cause of death to the wife to a flagrant two.
