mike did have some good points, but other points such as Steve deserving death are too harsh and could have been reworded. mike should admit to some errors in his original thought instead of defending them.
Good points...
Most of the world's perception on certain animals. That certain "tame" (notice the quotes), un-domesticated animals may enjoy a good scratch behind the ear. Steve Irwin greatly aided in this.
Steve did a great number of other positive things for conservation. He was also an ENTERTAINER. Even if you disagere with the world's perception on animals which was further misrepresented by Steve Irwin, you can't hate on the positive things he did in Australia and for Zoos around the world.
He got what was coming, but he did not deserve it. The word 'deserve' is open to MUCH interpretation and was one of the few errors in your original blog post.
With regards to the obsession human's have with touching everything, you couldn't be more right. The entire area of wild animal entertainment is totally fucked and in the wrong direction.
