Pinochet's Death

        Last night while watching the news I saw that Pinochet had been denied a State funeral, so there will be no pomp and circumstace, etc. However, before signing out just now, I saw this headline.  No real thoughts or comments, just an observation that no matter how evil a person is, there is always someone who will mourn their death. I guess that's a good thing.

SANTIAGO, Chile - Hundreds of supporters of Gen. Augusto Pinochet, many in tears, filed Monday past the brown wooden coffin for the ex-dictator, who was denied a state funeral normally granted to former presidents. While Pinochet's relatives mourned his death Sunday from heart failure at age 91, his many opponents celebrated with champagne and lamented that he escaped justice for the torture and killings that marked his 17 years in power after a bloody 1973 coup.
