Anybody see the drama unfold on BodyBuilding.com?

I'm just...I dunno...disgusted..by the responses of many of the people there and here. That's someone's child they're talking about that could easily be theirs one day.

I don't agree with egging the guy on but anyone who commits suicide is a piece of shit human being and a fucking coward.

Of all the people i have known in my life that have passed away, the majority of them have been suicide.

No fucking sympathy from me, except to the people they leave behind who have to pick up the pieces of their lives and somehow blame themselves for the actions of one ignorant fuck who was too much of a pussy to deal with life.

Mental illness or not, there is always another solution..

It's the human condition. We can all too easily love some people and hate others, at the same time, without batting an eye. It's our nature.

And in his not he said he's dried to kill himself before.

Whenever someone says their gonna kill themselves, if their serious or not, it should be taken in a serious matter.

Ive had a few friends that have taken their own lives and its a terrible, and extremely selfish thing. If they had sought help or been taken serious they would most likely be here today.

... dammmm, LIFE!

Then, see if if you're so cavalier and willing to say shit about it.

Probably not. Because if you are, there's something seriously wrong with you (i.e. you're complete trash) and I hope to God you never have kids.

Interesting.

Hell yea I feel bad for his family...obviously more than the dead guy does. But I will say that I feel worse for families of dead veterans, auto accident victims or any unwilling death.

From what i've read he had a good middle class family and every opportunity to succeed in life. He was a coward and he did what cowards do. He even went out in a pussy way with pills and booze...at least he saved the hazmat guy a clean-up. Like I said..Darwin knows best.

Ignorance is Bliss, Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem.

You know, I'd agree to some capacity that the website administration dropped the ball on this a lil, this kids family is really passing the buck on people that didnt even know exactly where he lived. He was the one that even brought up and took the action of the suicide to begin with, he was the one that set up the live video feed, he was in a family members house as it states that he was in his FATHERS bed, so at what point are they gonna take any responsibility? Where were they in the 12 hrs that passed? As I totally stand by my point of view that a lot of the posters comments were absolutely heartless and disgusting and ignorant, people need to stop taking so much stock in what gets said on the freakin internet. At what point is the line drawn? You can't fire up your pc anymore without worrying about getting blamed with something. This is a huge reason I try to keep a low profile with people on here.

My 2 cents after reading this last article.

Ps. I workout etc But the people that post on bodybuilding.com give me the impression they collectively have a room temperature iq.

I would tend to agree with you. Like I said, they actually run around calling everyone brah.

I wouldn't place any blame on the Justin TV guys... and as much as I'd like to, I can't really blame the BB guys, for the simple fact that there wasn't anything they could do. The guy was dead before somebody got on there with his information... the articles are wrong, the admins didn't do shit, they didn't have his information, one of his friends on the board did. But it was too late by then, so they are seriously wasting their time with a lawsuit.

**Kennedy** · 11-22-2008, 11:29 AM

U mad, brahs?

Sometimes I really wonder how the hell these journalists get their jobs. Isn't the first part of journalism, making sure you accurate info on what you're reporting? You are right and from reading the thread, it was like 2 posters that actually were the ones that pursued calling the authorities. Makes ya wonder if the website paid off the paper to keep quiet.

**B34M3R** · 11-22-2008, 11:45 AM

Maybe... or maybe their attention span wasn't enough to actually read the whole thread.

**nhraformula** · 11-23-2008, 06:42 AM

it was in the paper here yesterday

**BULLET_WS6** · 11-23-2008, 09:16 AM

i went to check my email and its on aol's home page as the first article... or was yesterday at least

people die, they need to, if not we would be over populated, but he also helped stimulate the economy a little bit with his death.

I also don't feel bad for the person committing suicide, that person made the decision. It sucks, but i have seen enough death, and worse than somebody killing themselves. No excuse, no matter the situation, mental disorder or not, people have to power to control themselves, just some never do.

I wasn't expecting to read anything like that about this subject. How did he stimulate the economy, is there a "bailout" joke coming here somewhere, hahaha?
