it's a matter of domestic vs international perspective, so i can understand your take
i would also say that if you were more aware of graham's domestic track record as us americans are, your sentiment might change
you're dutch?
if geert wilders dies and an american goes "well, i can't speak ill of the dead" it's a fine instinct, in a vacuum, but in regards to specific nasty people it doesn't hold much weight- many dutch would not agree with that take for that person
