Calm down, Frank.
He didn't murder anyone. He accidentally killed his friend in a drunken car accident. The passenger chose to get in the car with him. It was stupid and irresponsible (on both their parts), yes, but calling him a murderer?
What you're saying is far worse than what Ebert said.
The difference is pretty fucking obvious, dude. Regardless of how irresponsible or idiotic you may think his actions were, it was an accident. He didn't intend to kill anyone.
He didn't intend to kill anyone? Unless the man had an IQ of 60, he had to know that driving 130 mph while drunk was going to end in a fatality. Would anyone here drive 130 mph while drunk? Anyone at all?
The only reason you are calling him an asshole and Frank is calling him a murderer is because "he made people LOL in those Jackass movies".
I know I buried the hatchet with you earlier, but don't ever presume to know why I posted
anything. I could care less what the guy's celebrity status was. In fact, until his accident, I'd never even heard of the guy. Where do you even get that the reason I said what I said is because "he made people LOL in those Jackass movies"? It's juvenile comments like that which make it hard to take a lot of your posts seriously and as anything more than trolling. Here's the definition of the word accident:
An accident is a specific, unpredictable, unusual and unintended external action which occurs in a particular time and place, with no apparent and deliberate cause but with marked effects.
Unpredictable? No. That would imply that there's no way he could have known that driving a car 130 mph while drunk would most likely end in disaster.
Unusual? No. Drunk driving fatalities average around 18,000 per year. 18,000 people who would be alive today if the idiots who decided to drink and drive hadn't gotten behind the wheel.
Unintended? Maybe. No one knows what was going through his mind before he did what he did. What I do know is that as adults, we all have this thing called common sense. Common sense is what prevents me from getting behind the wheel in the first place. Common sense is what tells me, "Hey. You're fucked up at the moment. If you drive right now, you are at a very high risk of wrecking your car!" Common sense would never allow me to do 130 mph, even if I was foolish enough to drive drunk.
Your defense of drunk drivers is disturbing, to say the least. The entire basis of Bluelight is harm prevention. Now I'm not going to get into a debate over this with you. There's no point. In no way, shape or form are you going to even remotely see your point of view on this nor I you. Everyone that has ever gotten behind the wheel drunk knows how dangerous it is. Knows that their actions have a high risk of resulting in a wreck. Not an accident, a wreck. Yet, they selfishly chose to do so anyway, not giving a damn about the consequences. Their lack of concern for the safety of everyone else on the road is equal to my lack of concern for theirs.
