Having an opinion on whether someone's material is good or not is fine, wishing he was dead? Come on dude, I know you're trying to look cool and edgy but you can't advocate this kind of retarded comment.

George carlin was a hero of truth, he was perhaps the most honest comedian America has ever had. He saw the hypocrisy for what is was and his comedy was educational, it was inspiring, it was on an entirely different level. Nobody lived with so few restraints as he did.
He was taken from us too soon, if i could still hear his voice on a comedy special today, maybe all the bullshit in this troubled little world would seem a little less painful.
