That's perfectly fair to say, if you want to. Though I could make the argument that he's been a direct part of our lives for longer. For example, say the Twin Towers. Tons of people instantly called their family members, and if they were all safe breathed a HUGE sigh of relief. Does it make the people who DID die any less important? No, but they didn't directly affect you.
I'm not saying he's part of my family, but it's the same general idea.

What's not appropriate is to act disrespectful and wish so and such favorite rap artist had busted his ass already. But those posts are gone from the thread now, so I suppose someone agreed with me about them being inappropriate.
