That's part of the problem. Why do these fools get together to ****ing pray after something like this happens? Has it worked in the past? I think not.

Facing reality is the only path to a solution...not "praying."
When pastors say prayer is useless... well, the world will be a very different place at that distant time.

We all have different ways of dealing with things that we consider tragic. For some prayer his helpful. I dont really see any use in mocking it.

After watching the video , it seems he was part of the fight. He threw a punch. If he had just walk away from the fight could've save his life.
