I'm no fan of his politics either, and there is certainly a time to discuss/debate his legacy, good or bad. Now isn't that time. IMO his family should be at least allowed to mourn and put him in the ground before the insults start to fly.
This isn't a blog. A blog is something you write and maintain on your own. This is a discussion board with many diverse members and views, and at least out of respect to fellow members who have a positive view of Kennedy (who are also fellow Skins fans) maybe we could eliminate the negative comments in an RIP thread. No problem with voicing opinions, but maybe wait a few days and start another thread. FWIW.
