| Re: Cowboys DT charged with Intoxicated Manslaughter Looks like a whole lot of judging going on here. Stone him and cast him out to sea? Lol! Wow. I could easily see a couple of buddies going out getting drunk and making the mistake of driving. An accident happens..one dies and we stone the other one. Damn right! That'll teach that sob to kill his friend! He'll be punished and he needs to accept that. He's responsible for the death of another human being due to his choice to disobey the law and drive while intoxicated. I'm sure it wasn't his intent but it was his choice to drive while impaired. Hopefully he serves his time and uses his mistakes and his friends death to help others with substance abuse problems.

Now in my 30's I see the light and rarely do I ever even have a beer unless I am at home and done driving for the day. Risk reward is not worth it by any means.

| Re: Cowboys DT charged with Intoxicated Manslaughter Everyone makes mistakes when they are young. the critical thing is to learn from them and not repeat them. Just because you "get away" with buzzed/drunk driving 99 times, doesnt make it less likely that you could get pulled over - or worse - kill someone or yourself, on the 100th. I have had friends and family members killed by drunk drivers. its simply not worth the risk.

| Re: Cowboys DT charged with Intoxicated Manslaughter Killing someone is a little bigger than "just a mistake". Driving drunk is not a "mistake", it's a damn stupid decision that you could pay for...but others shouldn't have to. I have zero tolerance for drunk drivers. My wife and kids got t-boned by a drunk last year who went through a stop sign without even slowing down...thank God they were unharmed (car was totaled), but it should never have happened in the first place. Even before that day, I had the same view on it. This just put it on concrete.

| Re: Cowboys DT charged with Intoxicated Manslaughter Quote:
Brent was intoxicated and just in an accident. the car FLIPPED AND ROLLED OVER. McWilliams stated that every time she spoke to him and told him to get his friend out of the car, his reply was "he won't get out of the car." Its blatantly obvious Brent was in shock. The idea that McWilliams and PFT are perpetuating the idea that he just didnt care about his friend is absurd. McWilliams says she's coming forward because she doesn't want anyone to think Brents a hero - who the frack has said he's a hero?!?! No one. This woman is trying to capitalize on a tragedy for media attention and it disgusts me to my core.

| Re: Cowboys DT charged with Intoxicated Manslaughter Plus he was drunk...not in the right mind seems like a fair conclusion. The thought process of some people baffles me. Why this woman thinks this is something that the public needs to know is beyond me. What's the point? |

| Re: Cowboys DT charged with Intoxicated Manslaughter Quote:
He's a worthless human being. He chose to get drunk. This murder was a conscious decision, not a mistake or the fault of the alcohol. Unless he has some major learning disability, he knew getting drunk and driving is a dangerous DECISION. He's no victim, he did this to himself and to the man he killed, who pretty much provided the nails to his own coffin by riding with a drunk. They're not heroes or victims, they're people who chose to partake in knowingly dangerous, illegal and just plain stupid actions at their own free will. The families may need support systems, but this murderer needs prison time so he cant be on the streets to kill someone else. Quote:
I hate that excuse. He was in the right mind when he bought the drinks. Whatever happens after that is his own fault.
