Fallen Panther fan in Orlando shooting


Lout

Recommended Posts

Special recognition to our fallen Panther brotheren. Jason Benjamin Josaphat (19 years old). Rest in Peace.

Josaphat lived in Orlando and had recently graduated from Southern Technical Institute's business office specialist program in Pinellas Park, Florida. Martin Levert, the college's executive director, called Josaphat 'an exceptional student.'

His uncle Christopher Long described his as a computer-savvy and said that he loved to work out. 

'He was very excited about his journey,' Long told the Orlando Sentinel. 'He mentioned to me that he wanted to start taking pictures, he had a passion for photography. He was just real special.'

In the early hours of Sunday morning, Josaphat called his mother from Pulse nightclub to tell her there was someone was shooting. She begged him to hide in a bathroom stall, and called 911.

On Monday morning, his family learned that the 19-year-old was among the dead.

Josaphat's old friend, Messiah McMillian, told ABC15 that he graduated from Skyline High School in Mesa in 2014. 

'Whenever somebody was in a bad mood or if you saw anyone down, he would always be that one friend helping to put everyone up,' McMillian said.

Too many good people lost in this tragedy. I hope one day we will see past our differences and understand we are all at war with radical Islam. 

We are at war with intolerance. Still.

And Hillary Clinton wants to allow thousands of Syrian refugees in this country without screen.

I got a better idea.  Why not just give U.S. Passports to know ISIS members.   That should quicken up her agenda.

the guy's dad immigrated to the country legally 30 years ago

the afghan mujahideen (whom he supported) were being funded and armed by ronald reagan's CIA at the time as part of a proxy war with the soviet union so it's not like he would have been considered some kind of threat to the US then

the vast majority of mass shooting perps are US citizens

just stop

Gonna tell me 9-11 was Americans?  How about Boston?  And Countless others.   Don't preach out the wrong orifice.

When you spend your life defending this country to see politicians scrapping for votes over the safety of Americans.  I WILL NOT STOP.

    • When you analyze what Tulsky has done the only positive was getting Ehlers, he blew the Gentzel signing, whiffed on Rantanan, signed Miller who is a terrible fit, never addressed the goalie problem, signing a declining Freddie instead, and wasted a ton of cap space this year with inaction. My verdict is he might be great at analytics but sucks as a general manager.  
    • If you think the refs we have are bad, you probably don't remember just how bad it got the last time they used replacement refs... including an incident of a Packers fan ref massively influencing a game. The NFL, when you consider all the other things tied to it like TV rights, betting, stadiums (construction, ticket prices, heck even parking and concessions), plus merchandizing, is probably a trillion dollar industry. Give the refs what they want, pay them and let's get back to having games.  
    • Probably.  You never know.  It always amazes me to think how many times they miss on first rounders (about 50%) and the number of misses increases every round.  Then there are UDFAs that make the team every year.  I guess we are always looking for the next gem--but most never make it.  Funny, I was at dinner last night and there was this big guy with a WCU shirt on.  I recognized him--that OT from Western that we gave a tryout last year or the year before--Smith.  He explained his experience--just wanted to see how he could hold up against the big boys.  He played a preseason game and was terrible, fwiw.
