I'd feel sorry for his parents, losing a son must be hard, but, if the guy was a dick, then he was a dick.
The guy died from a severe heart infection of sorts. His last few moments were actually recorded on Twitter. Do I feel sorry for the parents? Oh absolutely. No one deserves to bury their child. But what gets me is that while they saw their son as a caring person, they didn't know about his bully side until he got out of high school and four years later, he vomits on a cop and his daughter at a ball game. What's even sadder is that he became a local legend for something he did so vile to a little girl.
Was the guy an asshole? Absolutely, he tormented me because of the fact I had a winter coat which had the colors and logos of a football team which he hated, the Dallas Cowboys, and I'm not even a fan of football.. let alone sports. I only wore the damn jacket because up in the northeast states, it's known to get abysmally cold. And around the time we were preparing an art festival, I was posting up some Still Life photography I took and he examined my works, not knowing they were mind and without any tact.. and I still remember to this day remember him saying, and this is verbatum: "Man, these pictures suck!"
So you're right, Mudbutt.. I feel sorry for his parents, but I feel even more sorry that they didn't make their son own up to any responsibility for his behavior until he got locked up for three months for the ball game incident. As for the bully well.. I'm not mourning him but I sure as hell ain't dancing on his grave.
