It is now sad that Jermaine Grier Womens Liberationist has come out and publicly slammed Steve Irwin whilst he is now deceased. She has bee placed on talk back radio's down here for running a website that contains remarks about his death that are pathetic.
Please if anyone can get this website or even take it off the net the challenge is there.
Thank You.
Nobody has a right to defame legends after they die.
Isn't it funny how an american started this thread...

Uhh...News must be about a day behind in Chicago.
the world needed a person like him to teach an idoit like me what not to do to animals.
glad he died doing what he loved and not in a car crash or anything like that, i think he would look at it that way too, may he rest in peace!!!!

he proved to the world that not even him is immortal
I wonder if he would've lived had he not pulled the barb out (you know, maybe give time for some surgeons to conduct critical cardiovascular work). They say he died not from the poison but from the fatal gouge of the stinger.
Must be the compulsions of his Wild Life Warrior nature which finally got him killed...couldn't stand the alienation by the creature's appendage, and in such, gave way to his demise. Poor chap. Too warrior for his own good.

I totally agree with you dude. I nearly cried when I heard the news. I always watched every one of his programs he did, even the one for kids.chef1969 wrote:

As Steve Irwin said:
"I have no fear of losing my life - if I have to save a koala or a crocodile or a kangaroo or a snake, mate, I will save it."
He was an Extremely brave man.

I grew up watching him on tv. Great loss:( What a legend!

I will never forget "crickey"
Is there any more details on what happened? was he wearing a wetsuit or just those brown shorts and shirt?

He was prolly wearing his kahkis. The water is too warm for a suit
I bet he wouldnt hold any bad feeling on that stingray either
As much as I regret Steves' untimely death, I can't help but find it ironic that so many people are completely freaked out by one man's death, yet so easily shrug off the thousands of other senseless deaths which happen daily. Steve was a great man, but how is his death any more important than the pedestrian who was killed 3 blocks from my house this morning? I'm sure she was a great person too.
I dunno, maybe I'm just getting to be too cynical for my own good...

There is a difference. Steve Irwin was known world-wide, as that crazy aussie that jumps into a pool with some crocodiles, and walk to live.ShotYourSix wrote:

Many people whatched his tv shows.
So ok. I can answer that. But, don't think I'm a jerk because I answer your question.
First of all, what was the pedestrians name? Don't look in the paper, just tell me. Then tell me how many wildlife foundations that pedestrian is responsible for either starting, funding, or otherwise supporting? How many people has your pedestrian impacted? How many laws has he help enact, or legislature that helps protect habitat, not only in his back yard, but around the world?
His wife is from my neck of the woods, (Oregon) and I got to meet the man a time a two. (They were involved in a research program in Klamath Falls). I can honestly tell you that I have never met another person with as much drive and passion for the things he loves.
Your pedestrian is special. But some people are just more special.

I have no idea what her name is. My neighbor is a cop and he told me about it earlier this evening (which is what got me to thinking about how a random senseless death compares to a random senseless celebrity death). Interesting that her name is your first question though. As if it somehow matters.
I have no idea how many wildlife foundations she started, funded or supported. While starting, funding or supporting a wildlife foundation is very commendable, I'm not convinced it should be a basis for the valuation of ones life. While most good people do good works, they don't always make headlines.
How many people has she impacted? Jon told me that she had twin daughters and one boy (I would imagine that she impacted those lives). I'm certain her death impacted them as well. Perhaps in ways you and I will never comprehend.
How many laws and legislature did she enact? I suspect none at all. A shame really, her death could have meant so much more if only......
You said: "Your pedestrian is special. But some people are just more special."
Perhaps you could explain that to her family.
I'm not trying to minimize the death of a great icon, he was a great man and he will be missed. I just regret that fact that we (and I'm including myself here) can so easily brush aside a common death and yet be so impacted by the death of a public figure. Sadly though, I'll probably have forgotten this womans death and her family in a month or so, and you will likely have forgotten about them by morning. Neither of us will ever forget the death of Steve Irwin. Somehow, that disturbs me...
In retrospect, I should have started a new topic for this discussion, I never intended to minimize the death of Steve. My appologies to anyone who was offended by my comments...

I totally agree (and to your follow-up post(s)). Also, I don't think it's at all disrespectful, in fact I think it shows a greater repsect for human life in general.ShotYourSix wrote:

Also, a better comparison than the pedestrian is all those people that are killed in Iraq every day. How many of those do we hear about? How many of them a mourned by more than an handfull of people who didn't know them?
No life is any more or less valuable than any other.
RIP
a good man who cared for the planet and all the living creatures in it.

What a shame. God bless you Steve, you will truly be missed. Both myself and my children loved watching his shows and were greatful for the way he taught us about animals. My prayers and thoughts go to His wife and 2 little kids. R.I.P. Steve
