Hope they bill the maroon for the life flight, but they probably won't.

Forestill bridge is extremely high. My brother had a friend in high school that jumped off it to kill himself. I wonder the the memorial bronze plaque they glued to the bridge is still there...?

Amen. Reading the diaries of my great, great immigrant ultimate parents, the very first rule was to learn English and assimilate and make America better.

The absolute filth we let in here now is deplorable. No quarter and no help from me for their evil.

I hope she got a few shots on the way down.

“That’s me just as I fell off the bridge.”

“Me at about 40 feet above the ground.”

Me again at about 15 above the ground.”

“And, of course, me just before impact.”

Rule number 1...anyone who suicides without a terminal incurable painful sickness and not defending themselves or a loved one should never be memorialized for public consumption...lest they start a trend. islams need not apply.

Rule Number 2: see rule number 1.
