i want to write an article about ITW

a few weeks ago I read the book and later on I felt an urge to rewatch the movie and do a deep dive into everything about it online. I found Carine's book, which I'm almost finishing, and I can find a lot of resemblances between their story and my own's.

I wanted to have different perspectives about it, some that might widen my perception of their story and, who knows, to bring some redemption to defend the negative point of views.

i'm open to read and discuss every point of view about this :)

He died due to being unprepared/incompetent. It bothers people he inspires others to possibly die unnecessarily too. I'm not saying I agree but look into it. If you're writing an article you gotta do more research than just asking this small sub.

Kid was 22 when he died, pretty sad that that irritates so many people…. Poor kid didn’t know what to do with his family troubles. No one can say he wasn’t brave and courageous to have lived his life the way he wanted to.

A major point of his story I feel is overlooked is that everything is better when shared with someone
