I know this was mentioned in last night's RAW thread but the guy deserves his own thread.

Story:
LINK

quote:

Officials are desperately searching for ex-WWE superstar Shad Gaspard -- after he went missing during a swim at Venice Beach on Sunday with his 10-year-old son.

Gaspard and his son were among a group of swimmers caught in a strong rip current around 4 PM -- with lifeguards racing into the water to pull everyone out.

Gaspard's son was rescued -- but the 39-year-old pro wrestler has not been located.



quote:

Divers were sent to scour the area. Helicopters were searching from above.

One witness at the scene tells us ... when lifeguards raced into the ocean, Gaspard directed rescuers to help his son first, which they did.



Monday:
quote:

According to reports, LA Police have called off the search for missing WWE Superstar Shad. They were not able to find him.


Tweet from MVP last night
quote:

Tweeted at the request of Shad's family.

@Shadbeast‘s family appreciates all the love, support, and concern through this horrible ordeal. At this time they are not ready to make any public or official statements to any media outlet And ask all to respect their wishes.


A while back he stopped an armed robbery by disarming the robber.

RIP to a good man.

From his Twitter over the last month...

“The guy who helped kill Bin Laden says we are under attack by Donald Trump. If you aren’t paying attention at this point you can go frick yourself.”

“ New York has suspended mortgage, next they will do rent. What will Los Angeles do
@CD6Nury@davideryu?“


“ THEM: Bill Gates is not a doctor! We shouldn’t listen to him.

ME: You’re not a governor, senator, Political science major, doctor, Nurse, police officer, pro athlete, a minority, the descendants of slaves, I could go on but based on your logic you should shut the frick up”

Who cares.
A dude died while swimming with his son.
Have some humane sympathy.
Good fricking grief. Some of y’all have absolutely lost your collective sense of humanity.
(I have NO idea who this guy is, but shouldn’t matter his politics)

I just assumed he was a short, stocky white guy. I looked up his picture and now wonder why he was trying to swim.

A dude dies and you’re first thought is to air out whatever political difference you have with him? You’re a real gem

LOL “Lost” at sea ... maybe he shouldn’t have recklessly taken his son nearly 800 feet away from the shore under rough conditions ... at least his son was saved by the lifeguards.

not that i agree with being insensitive to the dead... but somebody who takes the twitter to say GFY to people of different political opinion kinda opens up to some scrutiny.

i wouldn't do it and think it's pretty tacky to say it about the dead, but if you still have a GFY up on your twitter, you're not exactly trying to be well remembered in your death by the masses. that's to either side of the political aisle.

Doesn't sound like we lost anyone of note.
