How Mary Jo Kopechne was a victim of the Kennedys TWICE

Don't know the answer.
But I am more interested in historical context. Ted Kennedy's place in history is cemented, and history is going to hold him in relatively high esteem for his lifetime of public service.

That will not change because Breitbart, InfoWar, or whatever, still want to complain about Chappaquidick, and whether Kennedy was too drunk, too physically incapacitated or injured, or just not heroic enough to save her life. History is not going to judge him on that, even if WorldNutDaily does.

In this era of #metoo, people's names being taken off buildings at Universities to statues coming down he will definitely be judged by history for his actions that night. No way around it and no disrespect but bringing up WND is just a straw man to try and take away from that fact.

Yes, even though she is a “Friend of the media” it would be possible!

I'm sure when Ted went back to the house while Mary Jo was dying the people there were like "don't worry Tes, Laura Welsh (or whatever her maiden name was)

I wasn't there that night, and I don't think you were either. I generally do not trust the rightiwing spin on events. Why wasn't Ted charged with a crime for this?

Ted Kennedy has been dead for a decade, and the righwing still is posting threads about Chappaquidick. If that is not a testament to Kennedy's stature and legacy, I don't know what it. Because it clearly indicates a resentment towards the man, and a desperation to degrade his legacy.

No one is posting threads about dead Republican senate greats, aka Jesse Helms and Strom Thurmond. And they actually were racists, and that could potentially be a good topic to have a thread about. But you know why no one bothers? That's right, because they were shitty, morally bankrupt senators, certainly compared to Ted Kennedy....and no one cares about them.

It's obviously being discussed because a movie was just made about it. If a movie just came out about Jessie helms I'm sure we'd be having a discussion about him. Kennedy is also part of one of America's most famous political families. So yeah, he's going to get more attention as a result.

In this day and age of social media and the internet there is no way a senator could do what Kennedy did and continue his career. He'd be gone.

You may like the legislation he passed but as a person he wasn't exactly a stand up individual based on his various vices

You know, liberals are a funny species. They praise Kennedy, who was fatter, as ugly as Trump and led a far worse lifestyle than Trump, but can't except that fact. And Trump never wrecked a car and left a woman to drown. Hypocrites, all of them!

Does Fweedumb often go into these homoerotic fantasies here? Is there not a specific forum for him here for this?

We wish there was.

Once again, he was drunk, she wasn't.

Do you realize if you kill someone while driving under the influence it is considered murder in some if not all states?

The exact same amount of evidence shows that Ted and Laura were both drunk when they killed their friend, none.
Neither one was given a sobriety test after their "accidents".

If you accidentally killed someone, would you feel guilt?

Only if it was my irresponsible actions that killed my friend.
If it wasn't my fault I wouldn't feel guilty.

Yaya said:
And you lying sack of shit, I didn't pass the guilt, I took full responsibility. You're such a dishonest asshole troll. How sad your life must be.

You took four sentences to describe your reckless "accident". The last and longest one, was you shirking the responsibility for having caused it. You put the blame on the woman for slamming on her brakes and the on the "dimwitted fool" who ran in front of her car.

I got into an accident as a teenager when I rear ended someone. I immediately said it was my fault as I was stupidly looking at these hot collage girls walking by.

Still an accident you dumbass. And, the lady got out of her car and apologized to me because she slammed on her brakes because some dimwitted fool ran in front of her car.

Where I grew up someone who passes blame, for something they caused on to others, were called weasels.
I'm not calling you a weasel Yurt, but I think you can see why one may see you in that light given your own brief description of the "accident" you recklessly caused.
Thank goodness no one was killed when you decided it was more important to ogle a girls behind rather than pay attention to the traffic in front of you.
What if "the dimwitted fool" had run in front of your car instead? You wouldn't have slammed on the brakes at all. You would have killed him while leering at those girl's buttocks.

Pleas note that I let you post your bullshit in my thread, even though you ban me in yours.

You and your readily available, never ending, pictures of little boys on your computer is concerning Frank. Very concerning.

You've got much more important things to worry about, Sailor. Your mental health...especially.

By the way...you have the same pictures on your computer. It is called "Google images." I'm sure you already know that.
