you might consider contacting the paper and asking them to moderate the comments a little better - remind them that the families of the deceased might be reading that cr@p.

Whether it's the newspaper or the *&^% morons who write that &^%$ they don't seem to realize that a human being, a member or their community, someone's beloved family member has died.
It's beyond human decency.
Sorry for the ranting tone but when my cousin's fiance was killed I remember rushing to call my Mom who at 86 gets her news online to warn her "don't read the Press Democrat!"
Here in one of the most bike friendly places on earth they had:
picture of her body draped in her cycling jacket
an article that was needlessly graphic. Dude, do your creative writing at the Junior College where you obviously study.
the nastiest mean spirited idiotic hostile spewing about cyclists
Ok, off soapbox now. But not before I say "I hope they sue the pants off the driver and make him ride the mean streets of Florida".

I wish newspapers would just stop allowing comments at the end of stories.
No matter where you are, it's the same group of idiots critiquing each and every story day after day.
My local newspaper also seems to get their 'talent' from high school journalists.
