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.

      Yes, more recently. The way duke fans act you'd think they'd won five of the last ten or something crazy when they've actually won zero if the last ten. They haven't even even played in a championship ship game in the last decade. Carolina has played in three. For all the elite NBA talent that has come through Durham, duke is in a woeful championship drought. Duke fans used to talk all kinds of poo about how Carolina failed to win titles with Stackhouse/Wallace and Carter/Jamison and honestly they had a point. We should've gotten a title or two out of those teams. But man, duke's current run of elite talent with no titles puts that to shame.

      A Zietlow (observer) 3 centers to consider for draft

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      In response to mailbag questions about drafting a center from Observer, Zietlow gives this infO  From Alex The Panthers, after all, aren’t going to be as stacked with interior offensive linemen who can be converted into centers as they were last year. Cade Mays is already gone to Detroit. Austin Corbett moved on to Buffalo. Brady Christensen might still come back, but his future is murky too … and he ruptured his Achilles five months ago.   Keylan Rutledge. The guard out of Georgia Tech has received high marks in the pre-draft process, and if he drops to the Panthers at No. 51 somehow, they should take him. He worked at guard and center during the 2026 Senior Bowl.   Jake Slaughter. The 6-foot-5, 303-pound center out of Florida really impressed at the NFL Scouting Combine in February, notably with a 5.1-second 40-yard dash time. He’s a center by trade, and coach Dave Canales likes athletic centers who can get to the second level of the defense. Slaughter is projected to be a third- or fourth-round pick.   Billy Schrauth. Another draft, another Notre Dame draft pick?At least, it’s possible with Schrauth, the 6-foot-5, 310-pound interior offensive lineman and team captain. He spent most of his college career at guard, but reports indicate a transition to center would be easy for him. He’s projected to be a Day 3 pick.
