My best friend killed himself with alcohol despite support and encouragement from his friends and family. Alcoholism is a horrible disease but people still crack jokes about it daily. That's life.

I notice you have the evil monkey from Family Guy as your avatar. Family Guy is a program which spares no group from it's often obscene humor, including the old and handicapped. Seems like a double standard to me.

I am not trying to diminish your pain and grief at your loss, but if you do not like what you see perhaps you should turn the other way.
