arifsali says: This is shocking. http://www.suntimes.com/news/metro/123692,CST-NWS-bodyfire04.article The strange thing is that this story should have been in news all over but it isn't, look at the date of this incident. Ooh. And up until now, I didn't think the media was too terribly censored. :x This is just totally unbelievable, I mean this is a big deal here, to die like this and not being noticed much? I'm dumbfounded. thanks Djiezes for the links. important, thanx lol thats right everyone opposed to Bush and the war get a can of gas and light yourselves on fire!!! This happens all the time though.

A lucid, well respected American citizen makes the ultimate sacrifice on American soil...I don't believe that's the ultimate sacrifice — far from it! The ultimate sacrifice would be something like, a parent taking the brunt of the impact of an oncoming vehicle to save the life of their child. But self-immolation? What about slashing one's wrists? Stabbing yourself with a fork? Throwing yourself off an airplane with a parachute that's 50% likely to fail and you know it? Or staying underwater for long stretches like David Blaine? All I can say is, you play with fire, you get burned, literally. Maaaan, keep yourself in good health, run an outspoken blog, help make other pe... |
