My problem with what Roger Ebert had to say was that it was disrespectful to the family and friends mourning his loss who had absolutely nothing to do with him driving drunk. I don't feel bad for Ryan Dunn personally because he played with fire and got burned. That, however, is no reason to be disrespectful when his loved ones are struggling with his loss.

I feel bad for him. I often do feel bad for those who die young. People make mistakes their whole lives long. I don't wish short lives on many people.

It is sad when people die young. When you're driving with a blood alcohol of .196 and doing 140 mph, however, that is not a mistake. It is a conscious, stupid decision.

The BAC will not be back for four to six weeks. I don't know where people (and "legitimate" news sites) get this shit.

Haha, nah, I mean they could have released it early, but the coroner said 4-6 weeks this morning. That seems like quite a jump.

Agreed. I have no sympathy.

Usually, this story of a drunk driver travelling at 140mph ends with crashing into a packed family minivan. I'm glad he took out himself.

My only sadness is that he took out his passenger as well.
