When my dad died some "helpful" citizen wrote into the local paper
pointing out that the obituary the paper wrote forgot to mention the
cost to the taxpayer for the Navy to replace the jet. That stupid
letter to the editor bothered my mother for years. I'm not sure if
some people just don't care or are just clueless.

Both.

Add, too, just plain hateful/spiteful.

I'm (not) surprised that the newspaper published such idiocy, but then,
they're newspapers...

(Oh, and VN can shove whatever childish rationalization he's trying to pull
out of his anal passage)
