Today, I was looking through the Facebook remembrance groups of two people that died from my high school. The girl was sweet, smart, quiet and unpopular. She was killed by a drunk driver. The guy was inconsiderate, rude and popular. He was the drunk driver. His group has 602 members. Hers has 48. MMT

This is one of the saddest things I've read on this site. It definitely makes me think.. People can be so disappointing.

ppl are..... thts just awful.

This seriously just made me cry. This is why I don't like people. :(

I signed up just to comment on how disgusted this story made me. Sad.

I can relate. Two students died within a week of each other. One drove off the road and hit a tree - this was his third totaled car and alcohol is suspected of being involved. The other commit suicide on Thanksgiving. You can guess who got a long moment of silence, cans being passed around to raise money for his funeral, and a fundraiser to give him a memorial flag. All I wish is that we were given an assembly to teach people that suicide is a permanent answer to a temporary problem.

This is sad, but if we just sit here and do nothing about it, what will change! Make a difference!

this is discusting :( how could anybody be so fucking heartless?

In fairness I bet those 48 students are better friends and far more sincere than the 200+ others. Quality, not quantity.

This is disgusting.

Can you tell us her name I'd like to join her group

wtf

Shows you what people really think. We humans can be so cruel to our own. And for what reason? Social standing?

that's disgusting. it really says something about what humanity is turning into, doesn't it?

yea could you tell us her name I would love to join her group.

If only people could have gotten to know her more. :( I think they should join her group anyways even if they never met her. I go to a small school and last year a boy was hit by a bus and died. Even though half the school didn't know him we all cried together. To be fair this 'rude inconsiderate popular' boy made a huge mistake by drinking and driving. But unless you REALLY know him, you can't say there is no reason for his 600 members.

Can you link us to her group? Please, this struck me and almost made me cry. I just can't stop imagining me or one of my friends being that girl because im not popular and neither are my friends and that just seems like something that could happen close to me.

What is her name? I'd like to join her group.

This made me more angry then sad. It's a twisted world when we care more about the assholes then the genuine.
