Granted, we all know who he is, so that's why we all would like to know, but when you see people crying on TV about him when they didn't know him any more personally than they did the old lady in the obituary, then it's just rediculous.

Don't tell me to shut up. You're on a chat forumn. You should expect people to have different views. You're certainly asking for it when you start a thread like this.
I think it's pretty ignorant to say that Heath Ledger was not inspirational to anyone. Maybe not to you.
Trust me, I'm not trying to defend him because I'm a fan. I didn't even see Brokeback Mountain.
So, when someone starts a thread entitled "My Mom Died Yesterday", would you tell them to shut up because no one knew there mom? And yes, I know that is stretching it...
