Why do people insist on littering the highways with their little memorials? Who gives a shit where their precious died? Who wants to drive past the spot where pop-pop or little Jimmy was run over and ground into hamburger?
If it was a dead dog and not a person you’re dumb ass would be all for erecting a permanent shrine to it in the middle of the road.
What an asshole Squishy123
I agree with your opposition to roadside memorials. I have a pact with my wife to, if either of us dies in a car accident, not allow the erection of a memorial at the site. Our bodies and our souls will have moved on from that location.
The crass way in which you express your opposition is sub-human. That young man’s family will likely read this article, and maybe even these comments. Common decency would require that you keep your demented thoughts to yourself. Honestly, you should seek professional help for even having those thoughts in your head.
Ten years. It is so troubling to realize that they all continued on with their day, knowing that they left their friend on the rocks, in the water. It is more troubling to realize that they have continued on with their lives and never told the truth about what else happened that morning. Those young men are likely now husbands and fathers. Maybe this will be the year that one of them finally stands up and speaks out.
As a parent you will never know the impact your only child’s death has on you until it happens to you. I hope no one has to know this grief. I know my precious son is not in that grave or at that cross. What i do know from the many parents of students that reach out to us, that cross is a reminder to them and their students of what can happen. Parents can see the Tucker Hipps Transparency Act and see what bad behavior goes on so they can be diligent and watch out for their child. Our son was killed in the prime of his life and no one has come forward to tell us what happened. I pray it never happens again at Clemson or any other state institution. Until then I will continue to seek “Truth and Change” with no aplogy.
Cindy,
I offer my deepest sympathy for everything you have been through. Not only loosing your only son in such horrible way, but dealing with the aftermath of “codes of silence”, injustice and people that have no heart like this person here.
Thank you for raising awareness and making sure other parents won’t have to experience and endure the same pain.
Hugs
Squishy 123 you do need a therapist for those thoughts much less putting your thoughts in black and white Just some guy is right you can have your own thoughts. If that is something you care to not participate in that is your right. Just do not be so crass. Many parents have contacted Tuckers parents that the cross has made their own children who go to Clemson to think twice about fraternities/sororities. Someone on that run knows the truth and it would be common decency to let Tuckers parents know the truth. That is all they want.
Squishy 123 you apparently do not have children much less have experienced a tragedy in your family.
