**I don't mean people on here, I mean in general/on social media
Personally speaking, people can say anything bad about whoever they want to, especially if the person in question has put themselves under public scrutiny.

However again with Mandela, it's very easy for those people that you're on about to call him a terrorist when they're not being treated like a piece of **** in their own country, and democracy wasn't really available to Mandela at the time.

Was the one whose sign also said "Fuck Imperialism" ? As I think having written swearwords constitutes a "breach of peace", at least in Scotland.

I’m torn between options 2 and 3, there’s a lot of people who are more than entitled to not mourn someone that’s been so catastrophic to their life, and really I don’t think I (or anyone really) have a right to dictate to someone of that background how to react to the death of that person.

(So really I should’ve picked option 2, but I can see points for them both, but not in the first imo, they have a right to feel that way)
