Read this and please tell me why this is of any importance...

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/fbn_mcnair_killed

Who gives a [expletive] if he was drunk? He was in his house, on his couch. So the reason he was shot in the head was because he was drunk? I could understand if he was shot in the head when he was driving, but he was on his couch. Oh and according to this article having pot in your system makes you shoot people in the head. So all you tokers out there please don't have a pistol next to you while smoking or you might shoot someone in the head.

Ok, I can understand how that would be newsworthy for the girl, but why McNair? He could have been sleeping sober too and would have still died.

I think it speaks to his state of mind at the time and whether or not he was able to judge if he was in a bad situation with a crazy person.

Wasn't he sleeping? I think that would impair his ability to judge whether or not she was crazy at the moment more than anything else.

Exactly. Yeah he was sleeping, not driving. I'm sure I've been twice the legal limit before on my couch. If my GF or friend comes in and shoots me in the head is it my fault because I drank a few beers? :scratch: I mean he's been with this girl for a while and he wasn't drunk the entire time so obviously he's made the sober choice to be with this girl so I don't think saying it was his fault he was with her when he was drunk is fair. I just think it's pointless to point out the guy was drunk on his couch. Who cares?!

All speculation: Dude has probably cheated on his wife with hundreds of girls. Didn't have a will or an estate set up for his kids. Had multiple DWI issues (which may be irrelevant considering the charges against the officer)...but being drunk, high and a cheater....odds are things will catch up with you. Nobody should have things catch up with them in this way, but if you are being this irresponsible ---- you are living high risk.

I'm not saying he's at any fault in this.

I'm just saying when bad things happen drugs and alcohol are often involved.

Umm. . seems to me this is good advice, joking aside.

Well, it certainly impairs your ability to shoot yourself so that your body falls directly on your murdered lover.
