Respect for The Croc Hunter

I was truly upset at the news of Steve Irwin's death. He was a truly great man. What has me ranting is the reaction of people. I'm so sick of people saying "The idiot got what he deserved." Those people just wish they had as much knowledge about animals as he did. True, he did do things that even I thought was crazy, but he had a method to his madness. He was trying to teach the world about animals and conservation. My family and I know more about these animals today because of him. Getting up close and personal with these animals is the only way to teach the world. Do you think you can learn as much on one of those shows where the camera is far away, and there is some guy talking in a low voice in the background as if he is acually there? No! This man was a great teacher, if you can't respect that, at least respect the dead. I'm The Eyeball, and that's what I see.
