Didn't know it was another call.

Still, it seems to always happen with these tragedies.

I don't think getting rid of one bad celebrity could help.

How many people would have lived had Hitler been assassinated?
How many people would have lived had Stalin been assassinated?
How many people would have lived had Mao been assassinated?
How many people would have lived had Saddam been assassinated?
My point is that one bad celebrity is the initiator of these types of behavior. I know there may be some morons that might do something like this, but Howard loves the publicity he gets with it.

I don't defend it one bit; I just thought your reasoning was a bit... off.

OK, nvm. Disregard my last post. You're making sense now.

If you don't like him, don't listen to him. Problem solved.

Dario-
I think your point is right, that it would help (somewhat), but I think to fix the problem, we would have to get rid of all radio talk show hosts like him, and anyone that would make these kind of calls, and where does it end?

I think we should all try to stick together, in times of tragedy, instead of attacking each other.

On the contrary, Dario was watching CBS News when the Howard Stern fan made the call.

I dont' think Howard Stern should be held responsible for that moron's action. When 9/11 happened, Howard got all serious, stoped all jokes and got to real newscasting of the things happening.
