Apparently Clementine Ford is all upset because friends of Damien Little have called him a top bloke. Granted, he committed a murder/suicide which by definition precludes him from being a top bloke, but Ms Ford's reason for getting on her high horse on this issue it's an example of domestic violence by a privileged white man. Melissa Little appears to reject this conclusion and only has words of love and regret for Damien. Damien was clearly in a bad place where he could find nothing worth living for.
This is the real sin of the suicide; ingratitude. Ingratitude for sunsets, flowers, children, wives, friends, life, everything.
Which all has me in agreement with Ms Ford. Damien Little was not a top bloke at this point in his life. He killed himself. He killed his children. But who is Ms Ford to talk? She has gone on the record several times to publicize the fact that she has killed two of her own children because they were an inconvenience to her. She rationalized this by pointing out that they were only the size of a tooth at the time and really just a bunch of cells; as are we all, Ms Ford. As are we all.
Clearly Damien Little had fallen into despair at the time of his and his children's death. Is that what happened to Ms Ford as well? If so, you'd expect a little more sympathy.
