Seriously dude? I agree, I now have no sympathy for him at all. But a little girl is still growing up without a father.
But yeah, my respect for Mitch is practically nonexistent now. You can seek thrills and tout YOLO-esque philosophy all you want, when you're a parent you have a goddamned responsibility. He acted like a child.
What's sad is that a little girl lost her dad and a wife lost her lifetime partner. The fact that that father cared that little about his family is a tragedy in itself.
Oh she was nice enough to not say the word dead, but describe everything else in pretty good detail.
I was thinking the same thing Chuck. When she said I have to spell it out, I immediately thought but it's perfectly ok to run off his drinking problems in an expletive ridden rant in front of your daughter.
Y'all niggas act like you are the model drunks of the United States. We've all done retarded shit drinking, doesn't mean the guy deserves to fucking die.

It's easy as hell to jump in a car and drive around when you're drunk, and I've done it on more than one occasion unfortunately. By no means am I trying to defend drinking and driving, but sometimes people just don't think about shit and pay the price before they get a chance to learn from it.
Luckily I've been able to learn from my mistakes, and seeing cases like this definitely help me from wanting to ever do it again. I just wish Mitch had been able to turn it around before this happened.
I got a DUI when I was 19. I was a fuxking retard driving around after drinking all day. No it wasn't right, I took my punishment and learned my lesson. I drank till I was 26. Never drove drunk again. I'm lucky.

I think that it's absolutely inhuman to not feel bad. The guy had to support a family, he died, his kid and wife now have to grow up without having him there for both of him. That's sad, forget anything else.
Sure, there's the details, but none of them are as important as his family losing him. Maybe he wasn't being the smartest, but it doesn't change that.

Same way I feel about Paul Grey too.
