    Fucking Christ on a crutch! If you two jerks have to play stupid me-too games could you please show enough class or decency or basic humanity to NOT do so on a thread about a person's premature death?

    Thank you.

    So the number of kids you have determines if someone should feel bad that you died? How do you know he was clearly involved in things he should not have been involved in the first place? Why do you assume that? It is just equally as likely that he simply stumbled upon something going down and paid the ultimate price for simply being witness to it. Oh, he made more money than you or I made. I guess that means his death is simply a footnote and we should feel no empathy for his sudden and tragic end, nor the fact that his kids are without a father, and his mother without a son.

    I didn't see Barfo's post. His wasting bullets comments while not the best choice was also not a "oh well, this guy made a lot of money and then died young, oh well, sucks for him I bet it is his own fault" like your post. I'm so sorry that this guy made more money than you Papag, maybe one day you'll get super rich by writing a book "The How To of Internet Disguises: One guy being two guys and thinking no one figured it out!", but then you'll die tragically young because you stumbled upon the wrong things. Then we will sit here and say, "Oh that BGapag, he made more money than the rest of us and then got himself killed somehow even though we don't know the facts we'll blame him for getting murdered, I feel no empathy at all for his death."

    I do like the humor in you asking if anyone else has ever made a quality post though :D. I have afterall never made a thread threatning to contact the police over a picture with an air pellet gun.

    And how about some feeling for Melvin Turpin's "suicide" 11 days ago. Everyone around him says he was perfectly happy, but the coroner says a bullet through his head must mean suicide, so this ridiculous local TV newscast results.

    Damn cops.... how did they not check the area where the call was made? I've called 911 over what I suspected was gunshots nearby, and I'm fairly certain nobody came by to check it out. I realize they can't be everywhere at once, but why the hell wouldn't you check out a 911 call that ended in gunshots? Just wow....

    Wright made $55 million during his NBA career.

    http://www.basketball-reference.com/players/w/wrighlo02.html

    He couldn't figure out how to set up trust funds?

    $55 million and never advanced out of the first round of th playoffs. Think about it.
