The image from "FoxNews.com" claiming Dunn is alive is a photoshop. Don't post it. | ||

However, that's irrelevant because even if he was you shouldn't hate on him in his death for his mistakes, remember him for his highlights. The amount of negativity in this thread sickens me, a man is dead. If you don't respect him then don't go about posting comments such as "Scum" or "good riddance" or "retarded idiot" especially without the facts. Well, first off, I don't hate on anyone. The evidence so far suggests that he was driving. If I hear otherwise, I will think differently about the situation. Second - nobody's talking about deservedness, at least not me. Third, you seem to suggest one should forget about how he died, which is something I disagree with. It's quite relevant to remember both how people lived and how they died. From what I gather, the Jackass crew 'inspired' many people to do risky stunts - which is also quite questionable a practice. "But they are not responsible for what other people do" might be your retort, but since their target audience is/was impressionable young teenagers, that argument does not hold. One has to consider the consequences of one's actions, which brings us back to the case at hand. Since the most parsimonious explanation for the news item is that a) as he was driving his own car and b) that he was likely under the influence of alcohol, knowing that it is c) illegal and d) dangerous e) even if he was "just" speeding and not drunk, I would find it hard not to conclude that his actions were irresponsible and ultimately fatal. I don't know about you, but I'm not a fan of such behavior. I do feel sorry for his relatives and friends, though. | ||

I don't know about you, but I'm not a fan of such behavior. I'm not either, however I will NOT support people bashing on somebody because they made mistakes in life, my friends and I all watched the Jackass TV show and movies as teenagers and we haven't been inspired to follow them, if people do than it's not the fault of the Jackass crew. However that aside, what I meant with my post was that if you're coming here simply to post about how horrible he is and that he got what was coming to him or that he deserved to die, please remember he does have fans. My post wasn't directed at you alone, there are plenty of posts in the thread that are saying he deserved to die or various other things in negativity, and what do we stand to gain from that? Let the people who enjoyed his personality as his fans mourn him, bashing him serves to gain nothing. | ||

You might have confused me with someone else, seeing how all your allegations are completely unfounded. Of course that might be your bias blinding you to my actual words, so I'll gladly help spell out my thoughts if you still don't understand what I said. Funny to see that you in fact use the cop-out attempt I predicted, though. Go me. On June 21 2011 02:28 inimenesc wrote: ![]() Hmm... ?????

Looking at it closer its just a really shitty photo shop of the original story. http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2011/06/20/jackass-star-ryan-dunn-killed-in-car-crash-report-says/ | ||

Reread my post, none of the things I quoted were from yours nor addressed to you.. I was only addressing you in that there hadn't been any proof that he was driving at that point, that's the only reason you got quoted. Nice job using the condescending spewing words from your mouth with no meaning attempt I predicted though, go me. | ||
