I wonder how much deeper we can sink into this madness before society finally collapses altogether.

I’m still trying to determine how one commits suicide with a gas-powered water pump.

He died of carbon monoxide poisoning inside the cab of his pickup truck.

While he was in the truck with the pump running, he was on the phone texting and talking with Carter

Words fail me.
This was all done so she would get the attention.
As sick as the PP stuff is, this is equal, or worse.
Just when I think human depravity reaches bottom, some little waste of oxygen like this comes along and starts digging again.
Why am I working so hard to save the country if this is who we’re saving it for. Better to just let it burn.

You and me both...unless he used it for carbon monoxide.

She’s the worst kind of degenerate coward....pushing this kid to kill himself for her pleasure then going on her Facebook mourning his death.
