It also doesn't take an expert to see that he works himself into character. There shouldn't even be a debate about this, it's clear as black and white. I'm going to have to go out on a limb here and say that anyone who is trying to argue this is normal, is working for some one... either that or mentally damaged in some way.
It's SICKENING that people who say LAUGHING is part of shock and how everyone reacts differently. This means half of the world is INHUMANE. You are INHUMAN IF YOU LAUGH AFTER YOUR DAUGHTER DIED, WHETHER OR NOT YOU ARE IN FRONT OF A DAMN CAMERA OK???

No you're wrong. Some times laughing and joking are normal emotional responses for people who are dealing with intense emotional trauma... the people trying to argue that these types of abnormal responses can be normal in some cases are in fact correct.

Exactly, so many people are INHUMANE that is MUST be considered NORMAL. Catch my drift?

It has nothing to do with being inhumane. Some people can only deal with intense shock through acting like it didn't happen or expressing the opposite emotions that one would expect to see. It is perfectly normal in some cases.
But I'm not sure if you read the rest of my post. What really gives it away is the sudden shift... some one disturbed enough to express that type of abnormal behavior cannot shift their emotional state at will to suit a given situation, they are totally unreachable in that state... let alone in any state to be asked to talk at a press conference. Who ever asked him to talk were well aware that his mental state would quickly shift into the more appropriate state exactly as it was needed to shift. Unfortunately for him he made that shift a few seconds too late and was caught on film making the shift.
Well, in my opinion, it is inhumane.
Sudden switch between grief and smiling isn't unwarranted, having to read from a script isn't weird either.
