the guy made a lot of mistakes. but he didn't deserve to die.
RIP.
I don't understand this statement. "He didn't deserve to die."
A 7 year-old caught in the crossfire of a drive-by doesn't deserve to die.
Henry's unthoughtful actions were the direct cause of his death. He did deserve to die but his family is the one taking the hit.
how does anybody deserve to die, with the exception of some despicable criminals which Henry was not.
deserve means you receive consequences befitting of your actions. He chose to jump on a moving vehicle driven by an unstable person........a resulting injury is a befitting consequence of that action....and death is a befitting consequence of receiving a serious injury.
that's a nice clinical analysis, but this is someone's LIFE that was lost. Not deserved, IMHO.
gonna have to take that up with a higher power. Maybe God can hook us up with "takebacks" or temporary suspension of the laws of physics because someone is having a bad day
