  • why was it necessary to say it was a gay sexual encounter? seems like they're unnecessarily highlighting the very thing that led to this... being outed in such a public way would be incredibly traumatic... his family is already grieving - assuming they didn't know about his sexuality, there's no need to further complicate things

    stick to the important details instead of the gossip :?

    sad story
    So true. What difference does it make who he was with? It is as if to rationalize his taking his own life, because he was gay?

    My hope is the 2 that taped him will someday feel his pain and
    his disillusionment and disappointment in the human race.
    it's pretty easy to love
    spread it

    that's all i have,
    carry on
    Amen

    Agree w/ 81 and Boo Boo

    See i wouldn't have killed myself, that's not the right move to make here, i would have killed the two kids.
    i would have understood that, it would have been a moral imperative, or atleast kill them before killing myself.
    my point being there are always options, even if there horrific.

    a moral imperative??

  • my friend went to high school with him...said he was a really great guy.

    i have a few friends at rutgers right now...they say the campus is really down right now.
    Beavis: All my friends are brown and red? What does that mean?
    Butthead: It means that his friends are like turds and that they like suck.
    Beavis: Heh heh. Oh yeah. Yeah! Get those spoons out of my face before I shove them up your butt!
    Butthead: Huh huh.

    i'm sure alota people take their lives just cause their gay and that's what i think happened here. it wasn't so much he was flimed but because his was outed for being gay infront of the world and maybe his family finally knew.

    Well if everyone in the world could handle problems as well as you and 81, it would be just a perfect place. Feel free to step down from the high horse anytime.


    it's not about being on a high horse. it's about not feeling for a guy that choose death over life. dude was 18, had his entire life ahead of himself, but chose to end it. you give me a story about an 18 year old that has cancer and is fighting tooth and nail to live as much as he can before his time is up, then i will feel for the kid.
    cancer patient is much more accepted in this country then gay people. i mean the very reason he was taped was he was gay.

    Some of you have no idea just how sick and violent a person's thoughts can become. Some of you ought to pray you never understand that rather than judge those who do.
    well said

    i agree. i would be homicidally ropeable if this happened to me. there would be no corner dark enough for thsoe two to hide it. what an absolute betrayal. they had to have known what this would do to that guy. perhaps not that hed kill himself but that at the least he would be grossly humiliated. i dont think we are ever more vulnerable than during the act of sex. and to have the whole world see that is not on the top of many people wishlist.

    yes... as i said i doubt it too. but were they doing for a laugh? what was the reason? did they think someone would just brush this off? did they think AT ALL? whenever is lets secretly tape mikey fucking let alone lets secretly tape mikey fucking and whack it on the internets ever ok? seems even those getting educated dont learn some things. tragic.

    it happens all the time sadly enough at colleges. it wouldn't have been that big of a story had the kid not killed himself
