Thanks for posting his YouTube stuff.

Proves that an education today is a joke. Also he either was mentally ill or reduced mentally from drugs.

I found a local account of the incident:

WTVY story

From the story: "Florida Highway Patrol says the accident happened near Laird Road along U.S. Hwy 90 at 1:15 p.m. Saturday afternoon."

On Google, here is the intersection of Laird Road and US 90. You might have to collapse the info column on the left side to see Laird Rd.

Laird Rd & US 90 in Walton Cty, FL.

Interestingly, the new A&E show "PD Live" which airs on Friday nights, has a camera crew in Walton County each week. I believe they follow the police all during the week, and then broadcast live on Friday nights. Perhaps the show will air something about this incident on Friday night.

Oh, I’m sure it was being a vegan that made him make the walking barefoot decision. Din’t you envision the Obamacare pajama boy ? I should not be this cold about a young man’s dying but he does sound like a perfect stereotype.

I am not pleased that anyone should die, but seriously, this explains a lot: He graduated from Brown University with a MFA in 2011.

“I can think of no reason why they should even be there as there is nothing but car traffic in that area. No foot traffic at all.”

It probably started with “And if you elect me, I will bring more jobs, more money into this fine.....”

What's an MFA?

Thanks......If he had gotten an engineering degree instead, he'd probably be working today.

... or even a degree from the Fashion Institute where he would have had a class in the History of the Shoe.

they probably aren’t. What I have trouble figuring out is how 33-year old people have enough money to go walking across the country with no job. At that age, I had small children and working 75 hours a week.

He wasted his life for a dumb cause based on a lie. This is pretty sad.
