Ontopic RIP Thread

James McCarthy, 1966-2015. Classmate of mine from high school.
Murdered by his girlfriends ex husband in Winter Park, Fla. I heard about the case at the time and thought about the name and said "eh there must be thousands of Jim McCarthys".
But I used to party with that one.
Found out yesterday.
Fuck murder.
 
This one hit hard because of the murder aspect. Jim and I were casual buddies but still.

That sucks. Years ago a friend of mine was killed in a fight over who had the right of way to a gas pump. It is a different sense of loss.

Sheesh. That's why I try not to go mad in traffic.

My best bud witnessed the guy in front or him getting shot 3 times.

Murderer gets into his car ,decides he isn't finished and empties the rest of the magazine to the car of the now dead guy.

Bud was all white and couldn't speak when we met.
 
Got me wondering now if that was somebody's brainfart/honest mistake or if somebody's trying to be a real dick.

Seems it would have to get ok'd by some amount of proof readers, fact checkers, editor, before getting published. At least on a big, actual news site.
