OT NBA star Isaiah Thomas' sister killed in Federal Way I-5 accident

very sad news, its always tough to see young life gone, condolences to Isaih and his family

I for one believe destiny is written for all of us, so this was hers
so I really dont see the point arguing about seat belt

 

Yeah right why fasten my seatbelt at all if all is written ? If I have to die I will die anyways !
Starting today I'll also stop watching for cars when I cross the road and turning off the gas when I leave home, since nothing matters.

 

you misunderstood my comment completely

you can do whatever you want to keep yourself safe, its in human nature, but when your time comes, you cant avoid it, and ofc we can argue about this, but theres no rules really when it comes to death

 

25 years ago I picked my girlfriend up from her house out in the middle of Wyoming. I lived a few miles up the road across the railroad tracks.

It was pitch black and the train crossing lights came on. I looked both ways and saw nothing. I told her there was something wrong and was about to drive around. Then I just figured that I should look again.

I let off the gas and just as I was turning to look again....WHOOSH there goes an Amtrak train at top speed. Somewhere around 80 I think they go.

It would have been instant death. And stupid just like not wearing a seatbelt.

 

I found a 2011 Avalon that I mentioned (not a new car) for 14 grand.

I could have bought her one and I would certainly notice it but I didn't make 6 million and something this year.

I'm not saying he should be Antoine Walker and blow every penny before he is 40 and I don't know how close they were and how much family he has.

I have close family and I can guarantee you if I made that type of money I'd buy them decent stuff. Doesn't have to be Jaguars.

 

you remember that double semi crash in oregon that crushed the chevy truck and the guy walked away with a couple band aids? freaking miraculous.

No I didn't see that. Holy sheeeeee it. Love watching youtube for stuff like that. Like that russian truck driver who came out the front window and landed on his feet unhurt. Yikes

 

Sad. I know that area like the back of my hand. Used to live In live in the rbc apartments and deliver pizzas around there.
Wonder if she fell asleep. I fell asleep at the wheel once on the job delivering newspapers when I was 20 years old working a second graveyard job. Totaled my truck, but I was fine.
As tragic as it is, it's also unfortunate that he will probably miss the first couple of games. If not the series. Boston is one team I think could take the cavs. But they need to get there first.

 

It's easy to dismiss this theory as "stupid", but then again: why now? this accident happened at a very specific point in time...

(I'm not saying the universe is doing everything it can to give a championship to Lebron or something like that. That's super idiotic).

 

Very possibly happened because it was late, she was tired, and not wearing seat belt. No mysticism needed. Terrible.

 

Who told the family she fell asleep?

 

So I had it backwards, apparently she fell asleep on the way home from work. It adds up because of her work schedule and the direction she was headed. No one actually saw her fall asleep, but this is the assumption, again, based on her work schedule. It is just an assumption, I'll admit, but I have no reason to believe otherwise.

 

Or bicycle helmets.... holy shit, I see so many people riding downtown without a helmet on.
