Jackass

I'm sure that most of you have already heard of the death of Ryan Dunn of Jackass fame.  He and a friend of his died in a fiery crash after driving drunk.  

Hours after, Roger Ebert tweeted "Friends don't let jackasses drink and drive."  It's caused a lot of backlash.  People are saying that the tweet was insensitive.  

Maybe the tweet was insensitive.  I mean, two people did die and it is really sad.  However, I find it hard to be too sad for them.  They were driving drunk.  You're just asking for trouble.  I mean, he was going 110 miles per hour when they crashed.  

Ebert is right.  Don't be a jackass.  Everyone knows the dangers of drunk driving.  Just don't do it!  It's that simple.  

I am just glad that they managed not to harm anyone else when they crashed.  Too often, it's innocent drivers who pay the price for drunk drivers' mistakes.  

Don't get me wrong.  I am sad that the price for their mistake was their lives.  And, I hope so much that they died instantly and did not have to endure the fiery aftermath of their crash.

I just hope that this very famous drunk driving accident will show people that there really are consequences for stupidly driving while intoxicated.  

New anti-drunk driving slogan: Don't be a jackass.  Insensitive?  Probably.  But which is worse: being insensitive or being stupid?
