South Park Doesn't Care
Monday, October 30, 2006
The Crocodile Hunter's widow, Terri Irwin, is "devastated" by an episode of South Park that pokes fun at her dead husband being killed.
A friend of Irwin's widow says:"Terri is devastated Steve is being mocked in such a cruel way. Her worry is that Bindi and Bob will see it and break down. Steve had as big a sense of humor as anyone, but this goes too far too soon."
British TV naturalist Mark Amey is also pissed: "My message to people is don't watch the show. It's distasteful s**t. Let's hope none of Steve's fans who keep poisonous animals happen to find the addresses of those behind the show and leave them a nice surprise."
Look. Anybody who is offended by this clip needs to get a freaking sense of humor. This is what South Park does. Do you get mad at a astronaut for walking on the moon? Or the Navy Seals for rescuing hostages in Iraq? Or a animal kicker for kicking animals? Or a vegetarian for being a cancer on society? No, it's what these people do best, so let them do it.
