Why should we mourn?

The end of the seventy-year reign by Queen Elizabeth II triggered a global response as was to be expected. There are those who are in mourning, those who are celebrating and those who do not care.

For those who mourn, like a large section of the British who have been raised under the monarchy, maybe we can understand their grief. But there is also a large section of the British population that chooses not to mourn as they acknowledge the atrocities on which the monarchy was built.
