Death at the Swimming Pool: (Depressing) Redux

Not only, as Edith told us last week, can you spend two days dead in a public swimming pool before anyone notices, but you can also look forward to being posthumously critiqued by Boston Herald commenters for a) drowning, b) frequenting a pool ruined by welfare recipients, c) having come to the United States from a different country in the first place, and d) expecting other people to notice you’ve drowned instead of hiring an ombudsperson to monitor your well-being at all times.

With, obviously, a small margin of the commenting population taking at least a moment to assume (probably correctly) that the young whippersnappers on lifeguard duty were texting at the time.
