Tim, THEENFORCER is a troll. Don't feed him and he'll look somewhere else to feed off of people. We're praying for your friend. I agree with Logical. Good comments in both of your posts. DON'T FEED THE TROLLS!!!

KISSmethod and timmy boy both of you are jerks. I agree with the enforcer he was either doing something on his cell phone or speeding on the dirt road and lost control either way its a lesson in life. Any number of people could have told him you need to pay attention while driving and you do not speed on dirt roads many have died doing one or the other. He may be lucky and if he is hopefully he learns a very important message from all of this.

GETALIFE674, were you there at the scene of the accident, or do you just randomly pull stuff out of your backside? It was not a dirt road, but blacktop. We have a 21 year old man fighting for his life, and instead of being supportive or remaining silent, you find you must be rude, cruel, and stupid. Karma has a way of repayment...

Whoa one minute passing by it seems the accident was ruled driver error according to some at the scene of the accident. Now driver error could be speeding, or using a cell phone or even dropping a cigarette and reacting to that. This was a single car accident so it was the drivers fault totally. I suggest you wait for the official word giving the exact nature of the accident. Discussion is open and you bullies are not going to deter any of us from speaking out on anything posted on here.

passing_by I was told it was not blacktop but I still stand by what else I said. It makes no difference where he's at he brought this on himself. I feel sorry for him but sometimes a heavy price has to be paid to learn how to drive safely. There are a bunch of people that probably drive that road every day without flipping their cars so we can assume its not the roads fault but the drivers.

Iamgonnagetu, I was not trying to bully anyone. I was there right after it happened. I am not law enforcement, so I cannot say what caused the accident. I do know however his family and many friends are hurting beyond words at this moment. You know, life is full of choices and we all live with those decisions we make. When the time comes at the end of our days we must ask ourselves, what did we do to contribute to this world? Did we comfort, did we make a difference and did we add a sense of positive? Or are we faced with the knowledge we simply trolled on some meaningless internet site, adding to the grief of others. One should also ask themselves how they would feel if it was their son, brother or friend. Would they appreciate the heartless comments or would they instead appreciate kind words of support? I know what I would appreciate. That is all.

An amazing amount of venom towards those who choose to not be negative nor snarky. #donewiththisdiscussionthread

What I constanly read on these posts if someone gets hurt or killed to many people worry about what is being said. Evidently all of you think everyone reads this. Also if you had one of these things happen to one of your family like alot of us have had the last thing you are doing is reading all this bull. You have more important things to do. But some feel that this is immediately being read by those and I ask for what reason on earth?

How dare you people. This was my son that passed away. If any one knew him, he was a loving, good kid. FYI ASSHOLES. the accident wasnt his fault. His tire blew on his car, or a strock or anerism, or a reaction to his medicine. He had no cell phone with him, and it was proven that speed was not the cause.There was no alcohol involved, no drugs, no smoking. But do to the hospital reports, it looks more like an anurism. Keep your nasty comments to your self, because after my daughter read these comments, it hurt her. God took a child to be in a better place, I lost my only son, and my daughter lost her only brother. May my child rest in peace, and you people who have negativity in your life with these horrible comments, good luck getting into heaven, because your going to have to fight like hell to get your self there.

You get em momma! I am truly appalled at the things that have been said on here about Brandon by people who do not know him or the facts surrounding his accident. Yes folks accidents can and do happen to people that are not their fault, and yes family and friends DO READ these posts and they are very hurtful to those of us who know and love this family. Best thing to do is to keep your mouth shut unless you know what you are talking about. Right now this family needs everyone's love and support not this type of B.S. So please stop all the rude and hurtful comments.

To the Family Sorry for your loss..... To the bureaucrats.... It was reported in the article that this boy was buckled up.....Seat belts don't save lives, so quit forcing them down our throats......Just my two cents....

I cannot believe the family of the deceased would get on here the day of their loss. I am sorry they lost a son but wonder why they would not be mourning and remembering the son and not going directly to post on here. Sorry but that is just not right and makes me wonder if it is indeed the family. There is nothing on here that a true family member would need to respond to hours after a son has passed.

Really??? My daughter gets on here to read the article about her brother, and finds the ugly posts. And as a mother you dont think I wouldnt get on here to defend my son & protect my daughter. May you negative people burn in hell. I tell you what, go to salinapost.com, and you will see how a comment should be written, and you will see how loved my son was by others. My son is a organ donor, you people that are being nasty, im so thankful my sons organs will never go to you. Especially his heart.

You are going through enough suffering this loss. As a father I do not believe you are setting the right example for your daughter getting on here. To me this shows no respect to your son nor does it send the right message to your daughter. For God's sake mourn your lost son with your family in privacy.

@ THEENFORCER, you do not make any sense. Imamom came on here to defend her son because people like you are disrespecting her son.

@THEENFORCER Brandon's mother would not be on here defending her son if you had not made the nasty comments on here in the first place. I have personally known this whole family for years and believe me they are all grieving. "As a father yourself" you should be ashamed for how you have contributed to this family's grief with your ignorant comments. (by ignorant I mean the lack of knowledge and information relating to this tragedy not your actual intelligence)For one moment imagine this was your child. Would you want someone posting the things you said about Brandon about your child??? I think not so how about you just refrain from posting any further comments and leave this family in peace?
