That's what I clearly stated in my original post. Apparently some took that as me saying that I think they murdered him or something, even though I said the opposite.

so all of this back and forth and arguing for pages and pages and everything is solely because you think these guys were bad friends?
Yea, apparently they were bad friends because they didn’t mother hen another 18 year old at a party with countless other people, actions which nearly every person did in their teens…except for Qjenk.

when you are a racist, everything looks like racism.

And you continue to say that despite nearly everyone on here pointing out that that was not an uncommon occurrence when they were in their teens.

You should recognize that you are the outlier here.


I do recognize that I am the outlier here. But in real life with almost everyone I know and have relationships with. I am not the outlier. In fact I have seen plenty of other people online share my exact same sentiment.

Yeah, at the bar. At the house down the street. Not an uninhabited island, nine miles from shore.
normal behavior for anyone who grew up or lives in a beach town or any body of water for that matter. Jumping from boat to boat finding the next party. This isn’t some castaway scenario. You think it’s weird leaving someone with a group of people with over 50-100 boats on an island 9 miles offshore but no problem leaving a friend at a random lsu tailgate when you’re driving back 35 minutes to Gonzales to watch the game at the house. Same scenario nothing wrong with either situation.

i went back and read QJenk's posts on this thread, and to be fair, he has been very clear that he doesnt think there was any foul play and he hasnt said anything outright about race being a factor here. i think a lot of people, including myself, were/are assuming that there is a racial component being implied in his posts. maybe there is, but he hasnt said that outright, and we arent mind readers.

I only questioned if his friends were truly his real friends. This isnt an indictment on them at all. I would say it's very common amongst young people. They are friends moreso due to proximity. Ie they live in the same neighborhood, rode the same bus, play football together, etc. But when it comes to genuinely caring for each other and having each other's best interest at heart, that's not the case.

Yes, its called an "acquaintance" and its not some new trend that the current generation of young people came up with.

Now, if you have a boat and can only bring a couple of people with you at a time, who are you going to invite? Random acquaintances you don't really care much about.....or your actual friends who you do care about?

Just for the record, according to google Earth it's only 6.23 miles offshore from the closest point to point...

whatever. we are sentient human beings and can detect innuendo when we see it. 16 pages of questioning the integrity of the white friends isnt difficult to see through.

Its just sad that a generation of kids who really DGAF about race are going to get thrown into a meat grinder because their parents' generation cant stop obsessing about racial victimhood.

There is an extenuating circumstance in this case that is quite unique.

The boat they arrived in had a leak and they were 6 miles from the mainland.

Under normal circumstances, maybe they would have stuck around longer to make sure he was in good hands, but they did not have the luxury of time.

It was like, leave now or you're on your own. He decided to not leave.

For the record, when I was in high school and college, I was always "that guy" that "mother henned" my friends. I never wanted to leave anyone behind unless they got belligerent about it. Some did. And they usually paid a price like getting arrested, losing their wallet, etc.

The racism has been as strong as anything I have ever seen with this. Just blatantly racist black people on FB talking about this.


It’s because they view the Karmelo sentencing as a “loss” and are taking their frustration out on another tragedy.

If this is what happened, I do agree that is very different and I would say they acted very reasonable.
