In reply to the discussion: Making fun of someone who died of cancer, has cancer, or potentially has cancer is NO JOKE!!!!!! [View all]Smilo
(1,945 posts)17. Hate is easy
but doing what you have done - speaking out takes a lot of courage - A LOT.
Cancer is a terrible disease - I have lost a parent and friends to cancer. Take heart loyalkydem - there are many out here who know of what you speak, who send you love and healing thoughts.
Yes hate is easy for those on the right, because they are spineless and have no thoughts or compassion for others.
Sending you hugs and peace.
