Whitney looks lovely, as if she is sleeping, I hope she finds peace, that she was unable to find here. Her talent will be remembered, hopefully above all the negative, she was indeed 'the voice' . May she rest in peace.

Bro stop this crap, though I don't support it but what the heck is the government of those countries doing? Check the gross wealth of all public officers and you'll be shocked to the extent they've ruined the well being of the masses!

This is how I do my comparison;

Compare Gaddafi to African leaders he is waaaay more better grin

The human mind is greedy for power and money.

Gaddafi let go money and withheld the power,unlike his counterparts abeg is there much harm in that?

Now to your question why people spoke ill of Gaddafi was because of what they allowed their ears hear from western media houses, in which was propelled by their government only because he stood his ground

1. that the wealth of Africa must not be plundered by loans and arranged wars!

2. Fought western imperialism by stopping this vain westerners from touching his oil, he rather choose to control his oil.

3. He really wanted the African Unity.

She made millions she worked hard for.She can be buried in whatever amount cz its all her sweat. I really don't mind because what she's left behind is much more than what went 6 feet under. Its just priceless and valueless.

How is it in poor taste? Open Casket burials are usual when there is no physical damage to the dead. You only have Closed Casket burials in situations like ghastly accidents or other violent deaths (as you'd have heard in mob hits). Pictures can always be taken in public places.
