Some people also make fun of everything that does affect them.

People are complicated. I have been to funerals where it is almost like a roast. Some people deal with heavy emotions through humor.

I do understand how if something doesn't affect you it can be very disrespectful to mock it. I am just pointing out that not everyone holds a reverence for even very serious situations.



Big difference between making light of the dark situation you are in, vs. the dark situation others are in and you aren't.
