Colorado Shooter (alleged) Has Facebook Fans

Do some people think that you get some kind of pass or do-over, after killing (allegedly) a dozen people, and shooting up more than 50 others, not to mention what was done to the two theaters showing the movie as well as the horrors and trauma done to all the law enforcement, first responders, health care providers, neighbors to the shooter, etc.?

Who could possibly justify photoshopping this guy's face in place of a real hero?  or glorify the fictional villain after this event?  Do we have this many people who are simply hateful contrarians with no regard for life -- these people are pioneering new lows of shallow and vile.

James Holmes Facebook Dedication Page Getting Plenty of Likes

By Michael Flood McNulty, Mon, July 23, 2012
Only hours after the Aurora shooting claimed 12 lives early Friday morning, an individual took to Facebook and created a page in dedication to alleged shooter James Holmes.
Despite lots of anger and criticism directed towards the page's yet-to-be-identified creator or creators via the comments, more than 425 people have already Liked the page as of Monday morning.
Responding to angry comments, the person responded "It's a page for those who like James, give him a second chance."
Although in horrible taste, it doesn't appear like the page breaks any law -- yet. However, Facebook may feel it violates a company policy and take down the page. That hasn't happened yet, however.
To give you an idea of what you'll find there, two images on the page include:
