no they should split the posts from greg and all of the posts responding to him and throw them into a “GREG DOESN’T GET IT” thread.

Locking this thread would be as stoopid as the first quote in my post.

+1  
Pretty much exactly correct. Whacked logic ITT

As far as Chris, he used to post here, username HighLife66 or something like that. He had a couple bikes, a mustang, some bullshits etc but I don’t think he’s been posting within the last year or so.

We actually hung out a few times a couple years ago, bike rides and whatever else, the kid was really fucking chill…

Fucking blows, but at the same time I’m not surprised he died this way because he just didnt really “have it” up there to be responsible with fast cars, and you could tell that from knowing him. Can’t believe he made it okay on bikes actually.

Really hurts to hear the news tho 😢

I figured as much you simpleton. You will for ever have a bone to pick and think you have a fool proof argument to justify it. Thats pitiful.

The bold part is exactly what I am talking about. you are too narrow-minded to fucking realize why your friends thread turned into a 30 page shit show. You keep clinging to what I highlighted in bold because its the only argument you have to use against us, and its not even why there was an argument in the first place.

Let me put this very fucking simply.

**YOUR ACTIONS** WERE THE REASON PEOPLE SHIT ON YOUR THREAD, YOUR FRIENDS DEATH AND YOU! It started off just like it should have, “RIP, Sorry for the loss, etc.” Then someone had the BALLS to call it how they saw it, and **YOU** blew the fuck up. YOU started puffing your chest, YOU started fabricating facts, YOU stuck up for his fatal mistakes YOU BROUGHT THE SHIT SHOW ON!!! Just like BITCH did on the mustang blow up.

Travis’ friend died for his mistakes, and he did what any level headed person would, “Yep, he died doing something stupid, nothing I could have done could have changed it.” Thats why his stayed “respectfull” and didnt turn to shit.

Just like friends here of this kid, arnt fabricating the scene, justifying his actions, etc.

Get your fucking head out of your ass.

No, someone stated what they think happened surrounding the death, which turned out to be true, and GREG couldnt admit it was true and went off on anyone who didnt see it his way.

I know Mark very well. hes is one of the most respectful people on here, and in the car scene IMO. He has helped me out, and I helped him out more than a few times, and is the farthest thing from a douchebag. I picked my words carefully out of respect to him. I tried to say “yeah kid fucked up…” becasue in all honesty I dont “feel bad” for very many people who bring a world of pain on themselves or others through their poor decision making. I feel bad for the victims dragged into the mess, aka friends and family. Hence my remorse for him (mark) and the kids friends and family. Again it all boils down to respect and how people carry themselves. You give respect and you will receive it back in times of need. Some people just dont understand that I guess

At the end of the day, the only people who should really care and have serious input about the situation are the deceased’s family and friends. Hate to say it, but to everyone else, he was just another kid doing something stupid.

Mike, you’re an awesome friend and all around legit person. I appreciate that.

I’ve been trying to avoid this topic because of people arguing and bringing in drama. If you didn’t know Chris, you’re entitled to your own opinions. I’d never try and take that away from someone, even if they were an asshole about it. But I’d appreciate if you don’t have anything nice to say, keep it to yourself, out of respect for his parents. I didn’t know Chad, I didn’t trash talk his situation, I wasn’t the one bashing him. So no disrespect, but can we keep these two topics separate. I can understand his friends coming to his defense, but it doesn’t belong here. Thanks.

Yeah that’s his username. I was reading the chat messages we had on facebook not too long ago, he was telling me about his girl problems or whatever and damn, I said some ironic shit i can tell you that.

We can cry all day and night, and yeah it sucks for me too but let me tell you fuckers that you need to appreciate the people you already know in your life while they are still alive.

That’s why I dont get some of these people , the same mother fuckers who were beefing with a person when they were alive… talking like… “im gona think about you everyday, you were the nicest person I ever knew”

If he was the nicest person you ever knew, then you should of said it… you’re telling him when he’s dead now what the fuck good does that do him now?

That’s just a generalization, I’m not talking about chris only…
