    Not inappropriate per se, but it's not clear why he'd announce such a thing. If he's doing this solely to be a good person, then no announcement is necessary. If he's doing it for PR, an announcement makes sense from that perspective to let the whole world know what he's doing. Of course, if I were a family member of Joe and I didn't have money to pay for a proper funeral, I wouldn't care much about Floyd's motives.

    "Be careful not to do your 'acts of righteousness' before men, to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven."

    Mathew 6:1

    This trick is literally thousands of years old.

    And why would he need props for this? If this is just a PR move then let's just be real and call it that. Congratulate Floyd for stirring up attention for himself and move on.

    Inappropriate: No.

    Classless: Yes.

    Discretion and tact earn respect. Self-promotion loses respect.

    So you are saying he paid for the funeral to make himself look like a good guy. This is exactly why he shouldn't have tweeted it because everyone now thinks that he did it to benefit himself.

    Rearendless, I heard you, Lanceuptheass, and Codenamedick love grapes, pool balls, and greased up wine bottles. Care to explain. By the way, I hope you take your very last breath tonight.

    I have the feeling that if it was anybody else in the world who announced they plan to help the Frazier family with expenses, threads would be made praising that person.
