Need additional information from his friend to get a better picture to the story.

Wait, let me think, ......,  nope, not that stupid, I am still alive!

Would have been the same saying you really weren’t violated because his little pocket worm is only a couple of centimeters long. 
This woman need to be banned from anything to do with schools and kids.

Most of us did stupid things when we were young, some of us are seriously lucky to be alive, the difference now is, we can read about it due to the Internet

Correct on stupid things. Way too in to things and adventurous and if was a cat I have exceeded my lives 4-5 fold already. Not sure about the young but as I still get into and do things even now in my late 50’s that buck the safe system. But we only live once and if it is my time to go then hopefully it was on the books and not forced out of time.

It was his destiny. When you live so dangerously. Tragic because his family will now have to live with the memory of his foolishness as a reminder of his death.

Hi Mandy. Sorry, somehow the post you quoted of me was from another news article. Not sure why it showed up here as I do not think i posted on this news article. Glitch in the program perhaps? 

Anyway to correct and disect my comment on your comment and take the content of the student kid rape out:

Correct on stupid things. Was way too much into things and adventurous and if was a cat I have exceeded my lives 4-5 fold already. Not sure about the young but as I still get into and do things even now in my late 50’s that buck the safe system. But we only live once and if it is my time to go then hopefully it was on the books and not forced out of time. 

Cheers!

Probably more like pissed out of his mind on alcohol, ten foot tall and bulletproof. Sorry for the family, but...
