RIP Ryan Dunn

These were two completely avoidable deaths. Dunn lived a life where he was paid and encouraged by his friends to make bad decisions. I saw a video clip today of Bam and someone else saying he would die in a car wreck because he was a terrible driver. None of them did anything to try to stop this from happening.

I don't consider this a case of piling on. There are loads of "tributes" to a guy who made a decision we tell kids day in and day out they need to avoid. He is being glorified for doing something over and over again that we all "say" we are against. I feel really bad for the family of the passenger and the families involved.
