The Florida Department of Law Enforcement says one of its agents was driving Gov. Ron DeSantis' vehicle in a motorcade when it was involved in a multi-car accident in Tennessee.
Far from demanding that his dad spend a quarter mil on it, there were multiple news reports at the time from the boy’s aunt - his father’s sister - that said the kid was terrified and didn’t want to go but the father pressured the rest of the family to allow it.
This exactly. Religions are stupid. Either a) God doesn’t exist or b) God does exist and is doing nothing about any of the evil people doing absolutely reprehensible shit in society right now.
Either way, fuck God. If God exists he is no friend of mine.
I’d imagine it’s a combination of rich people getting better medical care, both preventatively and when something happens (and bad people who aren’t rich don’t make the news as much and don’t stay in it), coupled with the fact that when something does happen to one of these people, they quickly fade from people’s attention as new villains take their place. For instance, Herman Cain isn’t in people’s thoughts as much these days.

A month or two ago five rich people died suddenly in a wrinkled chunk of carbon fiber and metal and the world cheered.
Baby steps.
One of them was a kid who was invited by one of the adults onboard if I heard correctly

Of course that is a possibility but that doesn’t mean we should celebrate his death.
It is possible for a spoiled child to grow up and become a decent adult.

EDITED to add that Wikipedia tells a different story, that Suleman Dawood’s dad bought the ticket for his wife but she didn’t want it, which is how Suleman got it, and he was excited to go. Wikipedia link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shahzada_Dawood#Titan_expedition_and_death
He sure did.
I saw a meme on here recently that said “the difference between me and God is if I saw a child getting raped, I’d step in and save it”
I still think Stephen Fry’s response to a Catholic priest said it best.

You are a scholar and a hero. Thank you
Maybe this is hell and God isn’t going to let the wicked out so easily.
