Death and grief are a part of life. Everybody (if they live long enough) will "lose" people they love. How that grief and bereavement are expressed is the point here. When my mother was killed in a one-car accident, I did not protest against Oldsmobile or the building she ran into. When people die horrible deaths because of illness, accident or "old age," we do not blame the disease, the "incidental" circumstances, or the fact that their bodies just finally wore out.

We grieve. We do not "blame" the circumstances of death on any particular person or group of persons....unless they, as in the case of Trump & company, are criminals.

This woman's grief and bereavement are directed in the wrong direction.
