Like i said alot of you guys are either have no life and have never had any risky fun or a hypicrit either i feel sorry for you. You only live once he will probable never do that again but believe long after he paid his fine the memory of doing a buck and a pocket full of change on the highway will last a lifetime and he will just grin for no reason at 70 in the nursing home real talk when it pops in his head. While your thinking about how you "made use" of the computer when moms wont homes suckers
Yeah ... something to be real proud of. Man, I gotta say, this is the kind of attitude that gets people DEAD.
I work in an E.R. at a local hospital, and over 80% of trauma cases we get are caused by people driving too fast and under the influence. I am not supposed to discuss this here, but I will speak in generalities, because this attitude upsets me more than I can express.
Three days ago I had my hand in the chest of a 7-year-old girl who had been in the back seat of a car with her seatbelt on, when a 17-year-old going over 90 ran a stop-sign and t-boned the car her mother was driving, with her brother in the passenger seat.
While I was trying desperately to manually massage her heart while another surgeon tried to repair the damage to her aorta and lungs, another surgeon was trying to put her skull back together, even though the damage to her brain was already beyond the point of preventing a vegetative state, should she live.
Her face was not recognizable, both of her legs were beyond saving, and after 20 minutes of squeezing her little heart in my hand, we mercifully let her go. Her mother was DOA, and her 11-year-old brother will be months in rehab, and when he comes out of his medically-sustained coma, he will be told that he no longer has a Mom or a little sister.
I was "lucky" enough to be in the position to have to talk to the father and husband of these people, and tell him that half his family was now non-existent. I also got to tell him that the kid driving the car that hit them, was treated and released into police custody with minor contusions and a sprained ankle. (That kid will most likely be charged as an adult, and his life is now basically over as well).
I would love for anyone like Tyreke or folks who think speeding and reckless driving is "no big deal", to have the fortune to witness this kind of horror, or hold a dying child's heart in their hand, or try to sew a little girls skull back together, or tell a father and husband that half his family is now gone, or see the damage done to a family whose son is now going to prison for most of what's left of his life.
Would you still think it was "no big deal"? Would you still say it's OK cuz the guy's just having a little fun in his fancy freaking car?!? Man ... if you only knew! This happens ALL the time ... we are trained to separate ourselves from it and try to be as disassociated as possible, because it will make you nuts if you don't, and it will affect your ability to do your job as effectively as possible.
But this stuff STAYS with you, man, and it saturates your being ... and when you hear someone toss it off like it's just a joke or a day at the beach, it makes you sick to your stomach, because you know all it would've taken is that fool on a joy-ride to just go the speed limit and drive with the responsibility and maturity that's been handed him/her wwhen they took their driver's test.
Don't TELL me it's OK ... don't tell me it's "no big deal" to speed or drive recklessly or have fun in a new Mercedes at 130 MPH on a crowded highway ... that's just plain some of the most absurd statements I've ever heard in my life, and some of the most naive. I pray to God you never have to find out the hard way ... because those are the hardest words in the world to eat, and you'll never forget the taste.
