Mr. Squirrel ain't here no mo'. Didn't find out he passed away until about 2 years ago. He had gotten remarried not too many years before he died. Jeanne was a trip. She would come out with us to see The Cold and other bands when we were seniors/college freshmen.

This is his M.O. with everyone on here. He insinuates and twists things up to make nonsensical assumptions.

It's almost like he had a frontal lobotomy.

Because it doesn't fit their narrative. The dude was drunk and drowned.

He could swim
He stayed behind with a girl.

My theory hits friends next him to him up with the girl.
She invited him back with her.
I think there was something fishy but not with the friends.

Him being physically fit athlete may worked against him. People with exceptionally low body fat have to constantly fight to stay above water.

If you Occam’s Razor this problem, he died in a rip current.

But even William of Occam had a bad day . . . .

I would be investing anybody on that island that also liked that girl, or who had recently dated her, and happened to be on that island with her when he stayed behind to talk to her, that would be my guess.

From a NOLA.com article which I will not link. The article is titled: Why Nolan Well's death is a bigger conversation for Black families across America and supposed to be about the realities of minorities having white friends.

quote:

I see it in my own family. My relatives had spent years navigating the reality of raising a Black son whose closest friends were White. Like most parents, they wanted their son to experience friendship without fear. But they also knew that loving friendships do not erase the realities of race.


It would be interesting to see statistical evidence supporting those fears.

I posted the statistics previously.

Just the rate of white on black violent crime vs black on white is staggering.

From 2017 to 2021, there were 370,000 white on black.

During the same time period, there was 2,300,000 black on white.

Author is a racist who wants a legitimate excuse for not associating with Black people.

At this point it's obvious that the guys who went to Horn Island with him just didn't want to be cockblockers.

Panic gets most people - they go under and breathe in and try to scream. Fighting current or tides is not possible - you lose.

One breath of h2o and it’s ball game. Training to exhale when getting dunked then trying to surface is a lifesaver.

The amount of gross racism ive seen on social media by black people is insane. A lot of "white people are demons, cave people, Neanderthals, pedophiles, mass killers, etc" Plenty of "white people are a genetically inferior race, and were a mistake by God." Loads of "everything that is wrong with the world is because of ypipo". This isnt just a few one-off comments, this is apparently the sentiment of thousands of black folks online.


And all of these comments were spurred by what is likely a tragic drowning accident of a black kid who simply was with his white friends earlier that day.

He gets drunk
Starts at least one fight that gets broken up
Tries picking up a mud shark
Gets turned down
Continues to drown his sorrows in booze
Two of his friends tell him it's time to go
He sulks and tells them no, he's staying
He can't swim, but tries to anyway
...the rest is history.
