Daughter was drunk assed and accidentally kills herself and friends...It’s the roads fault.

Maybe people should look internally first and be more objective...My kid made a mistake that took lives. Maybe we as parents didn’t do enough to educate her to the dangers of drinking and driving...Maybe we did...Life is dangerous, for everyone.

Maybe we didn’t raise our kid with strong enough mental fortitude that when the prescription for pain meds ran out, you don’t hit the street looking for a bigger, better high. Deal with the small dependency, if there was any from a prescription for 20 pills. Millions of others have done it without issue.

A lot of people refuse to take responsibility for anything...And their kids are living proof of it participating in protests, riots, looting, and violence.

Not just white people. How often do you hear the mother, never the father, of a dead black kid say that her son was a good boy who was getting his life together or that he only sold a little weed to provide for his family, he might be 24 with 6 kids by 4 different women, or that his criminal record was due of the bad crowd that he hung with, not because he was guilty of any "real" criminal activities.
