March 8, 201610 yr I've opened this thread about 10 times. Can't come up with words to describe my thoughts. Sad, dissappointed, shocked, not suprised, prayers, stupid, etc..... Hate to see a kid self destruct. Especially one that had so much going for him.
March 8, 201610 yr I am sad for the situation, but you can't feel sorry for someone that doesn't want to help themselves. All we can continue to do is pray and or hope his life improves for the better. We are to the point now of just hoping he becomes a contributing member to society.
March 8, 201610 yr His parents should try to get him in a rehab fast before it is to late. Prayers to his family. This is where I am uk#1fan. It's way beyond time to continue the shoulda coulda woulda and pass judgement. Instead we need to pray for his recovery and healing.
March 8, 201610 yr This is where I am uk#1fan. It's way beyond time to continue the shoulda coulda woulda and pass judgement. Instead we need to pray for his recovery and healing. My question is he was dismissed from Murray State why is he still down there?
March 8, 201610 yr My question is he was dismissed from Murray State why is he still down there? It says that he was attending classes, so the assumption would be that he was continuing his education. Better question might be how many actual credits he has accumulated over the years moving from one institution to another.
March 8, 201610 yr Comments about this happening to "someone with so much potential", or "so much going for him" confuse me. He had a big, athletic body - that's all he had "going for him". What you have "going for you" depends more on what you do with what you have rather than what you have in isolation. The long-term measure of a person has nothing to do with a big athletic body. If he truly has a problem I have compassion for he and his family. I hope he is willing to work on his issues, if not for himself, for his parents and brothers/sisters. They are suffering along with him, and maybe more so.

March 8, 201610 yr Help is where you find it, and it is there for the taking. Forrest Gumps' mom said stupid is as stupid does. I am all about giving people second chances because lord knows I did my share of stupid crap when I was young even if I didn't get in trouble. But at some point you either grow up or don't. Second DUI will get him some quality time in the crossbars motel, where will he go from there?
March 8, 201610 yr The signs of this were visible well before he ever hit high school (the path he has been on.)

March 9, 201610 yr 2nd DUI will be a slap on the wrist the drug charges is what will put him jail. The gun won't help either.
