Nelson Mandela

[peterm15]

With the flood of "rip" post on social media and this site about Paul Walker. I thought it only fitting to post about the death of a true historical icon.

It actually really concerns me how spammed my facebook had become about paul walker death within minutes of it happening and yet barely anybody seems to notice Nelson Mandela.

You comparing Paul Walker to Nelson Mandela son?

Rest in peace good sir. You've earned it.

I have no doubt his passing will garner the respect it deserves. Unlike NA celebrities (RIP), the international community and heads of state will make comment.

[peterm15]

That is true. It will get worldwide respect. Judging by some facebook responses it seems as though there is a shocking ammount of people who don't know anything about him other then his name.

No sir...just saying that both of them were good guys one way or the other....

[Rob23]

Thats because there is more ignorance on facebook than anything else.

RIP Nelson Mandela. He was an amazing person.

Anyway, R.I.P Madiba, a true hero of our time.

Then there are those that will be sad because they think Morgan Freeman is dead.

I was shocked when I heard about him on radio while driving. RIP Sir.

This is also true.

Noticing alot of flags at half mast today. But cant figure out if its for Mandela or the officer.

RIP Mr. Mandela. He's been in too much pain these past few months (always in the hospital for something), now he can truly rest.
