@RobLowe #respect to you for that, not as amazing as all says but balls of steel.

Lowe had some warm words this afternoon for the late Lady Thatcher:
The world has lost a prime example of the power of character and the female mind. Good bye Mrs Thatcher. #IronLady
— Rob Lowe (@RobLowe) April 8, 2013
What a lovely — and true — sentiment.
Some of Lowe’s followers took issue with his tweet:
@RobLowe This sums up her country's attitude to that "female mind". Lot of people still feeling repercussions today pic.twitter.com/KK2hQqwXJW

@RobLowe you are speaking out of ignorance. That same lady endorsed apartheid and condemned Mandela as a terrorist.

@RobLowe you wouldn't say that if she had been POTUS…. Good riddance!!

@RobLowe I love you man, but you and the rest of America have to shut up about this. You have no idea what you are talking about. #Thatcher

@roblowe Now your most recent 'unfollower'. Shame you didn't live under her 'Iron fist', you wouldn't have commented if you had.

@RobLowe Oh give over, she was a small minded prick. Hopefully Death will improve her. #thatcher

But the Iron Lady’s legacy speaks for itself, and those who understand her lasting contribution to the cause of liberty could not agree more with Lowe:

@RobLowe I'm from the Falkland Islands, we in particular owe her an awful lot.
