Somebody gets it.

Honestly I haven't personally lost anyone to this specific thing, but I know plenty that have, and even one I don't know are heartbreaking enough to feel this way.

And given that there is never an excuse or reason they do it, I have zero sympathy for them. Nobody cries when a pedophile out murderer dies. So got the same reason, this isn't sad.

At least not directly. I feel bad for their family and friends, but I'm totally ok with people getting what they deserve. And yes, driving drunk always means you deserve it. Unless there's a gun on you, you always deserve it.

Especially in this case where he didn't hit an innocent. That would be a reason to be sad.
