Yesterday, conservative icon Phyllis Schlafly passed away at the age of 92. Naturally, the internet, like they did when Antonin Scalia and Nancy Reagan passed away, decided to turn the sad news of a human being dying into a cause for celebration.
Disgusting:
Well, dang, Phyllis Schlafly died. Hope she doesn't deny anybody their rights to do anything wherever she's going.

On the one hand it's a shame Phyllis Schlafly died, but on the other it's always heartwarming when Satan calls one of his own home.

Phyllis Schlafly is 2016's apology for taking Prince and Bowie from us.
