Some are almost certainly criminals, one suicide, some are criminally irresponsible parents. Without links to the actual stories, who knows? For good reason, I don't trust Facebook graphics, nor do I trust unsourced info. Not that I seriously doubt it. In a nation of 330 million based more-or-less on individual freedoms, it's hard not to find sad stories caused by either irresponsible or criminal people abusing said freedoms. I find it refreshing that Democrats and Socialists are finding the intestinal fortitude to come out and say that liberty is too dangerous, and that people need to be pre-emptively restrained by government. Ah, the schadenfreude when they discover that their opinions shall also be constrained when they become inconvenient to whoever the most effective sociopath who ends up in control of those necessarily coercive restraint mechanisms shall be sweet, indeed. In a bitter, "We told you fucking fools," sort of way.
