You might find this "callous" and "uncaring" but I look at it pragmatically.Yes, a tragety but one that could have been avoided. Maybe it is why you mother warns you not to play in the street or stick a bobby pin in a light socket.
Condolences to the family and friends and, I hope, a warning why Jamaica should be approached and used with caution as "you are not in Kansas anymore Dorothy".
Peace and Guidance and R.I.P.
If you drive respecting the laws and rules of the road and have a "fender bender", well that is an "accident". If you propel yourself down the road at 100+ miles an hour and kill someone, that is Murder. If you kill yourself? That is Suicide.
I have empathy for his family and friends. I stated that above but I don't suffer fools that make bad choices. Whatever he was try to prove by recklessly jumping off a perfectly safe cliff proved nothing.
I grew up in a time where you took ownership of your actions. They call that "accountability". I have a huge amount of sympathy and empathy for someone who is injured or killed through no fault of their own but, again, I believe in "contributory negligence".
This sign is perfectly visible and warns of the liability you assume when you decide to live your life dangerously.
When you live in Jamaica, a little of the pitina that obscures the reality of life tends to erode away. In over 30 years, I have witnessed and been an unwilling party to everything from robbery to murder and much more in between. If it makes you feel better to blame Ricks or the lack of medical care instead of putting some responsibility on the jumper then be my guest. If your being an infrequent or frequent visitor to Negril or Jamaica makes your feel a personal connection to what happens there then that is okay too but don't judge me or my motives without first walking a mile in my shoes.
I wished him "R.I.P" and I think that is all the "Respect" I am obliged to show.
Peace and Guidance
