Can't actually believe this, such a brilliant actor, Mrs Doubtfire 2 was supposed to be coming out next year, doubt that'll happen now.

An outstanding person, I only got to meet him once, but he was someone who could make you laugh even with his seriousness. Such a sad end. Genie, you're free!

Totally lost for words. It's strange how the death of someone you've never even met could hit you so hard. RIP Robin.

His daughter wrote a lovely open letter:

My family has always been private about our time spent together. It was our way of keeping one thing that was ours, with a man we shared with an entire world. But now that’s gone, and I feel stripped bare. My last day with him was his birthday, and I will be forever grateful that my brothers and I got to spend that time alone with him, sharing gifts and laughter. He was always warm, even in his darkest moments. While I’ll never, ever understand how he could be loved so deeply and not find it in his heart to stay, there’s minor comfort in knowing our grief and loss, in some small way, is shared with millions. It doesn't help the pain, but at least it’s a burden countless others now know we carry, and so many have offered to help lighten the load. Thank you for that.
To those he touched who are sending kind words, know that one of his favorite things in the world was to make you all laugh. As for those who are sending negativity, know that some small, giggling part of him is sending a flock of pigeons to your house to poop on your car. Right after you've had it washed. After all, he loved to laugh too…
Dad was, is and always will be one of the kindest, most generous, gentlest souls I've ever known, and while there are few things I know for certain right now, one of them is that not just my world, but the entire world is forever a little darker, less colorful and less full of laughter in his absence. We’ll just have to work twice as hard to fill it back up again.

Baffled why people keep giving them attention.

Ignore them and stop pandering to them and they'll go away eventually - there's not enough people in the world that are as thick as shit as they are.

This.

They'll stop doing it as soon as people stop mentioning them online and news organizations stop reporting on them.

Wouldn't achieve anything though, as far as the law goes what they do isn't illegal, however disgusting it is.

An ex-member of the Church did an ama on Reddit recently, and he was saying that even ignoring them wouldn't put them off. They genuinely believe what they're doing is the only right thing to do. They're pretty fucked up.

They're fucked up but people blow what they do way out of proportion. Normal Christians and Muslims do much worse than them everyday.

They're that over the top and stupid that nobody takes them seriously. Yeah they picket funerals which is horrible, but that's as far as they go. Apart from their own children, it's not like their views are spreading to anybody else.

Whereas the homophobia, among other things, that Christians teach their children is a lot more damaging to society.
