The original post wasn't funny though. Don't get me wrong I'm a fan of comedians like Frankie Boyle and Jimmy Car but if your going to make a joke out of someone's misfortune atleast make it funny.Originally posted by Fantomas View Post
I find self righteousness in the face of other peoples' tragedies more distasteful than gallows humour, frankly.

Suspect Jacob Levy lived on Fieldgate Street for 4 years which is halfway between Bucks Row and Berner Street. He then moved to #36 Middlesex Street which is central to the Tabrum, Chapman, Eddowes and Kelly Murders. # 36 Middlesex Street was owned by witness Joseph Hyam Levys mother Francis.

Yeah, sorry. I completely forgot that Stride and Eddowes were murdered 'horrorifically'.Originally posted by John Wheat View Post
Fair point Caz. I just think we should be more mindful that people were murdered horrorifically is all.
For what it's worth, I did once wonder if the Ripper knew Stride and Kidney, and ironically removed Eddowes's kidney out of spite - kind of like the speculation about a link between the GSG and Eddowes calling herself "Nothing".
I've grown up a bit since then, but my sense of humour can still be rather immature.
Love,
Caz

I'm an optimist, but there are limits.

I see nothing for you to apologise for. You want to accompany a modern murder squad investigation. It’s not conversation you’d find at one’s Great Aunt’s tea party in 1976, let’s put it that way.Originally posted by caz View Post
