There have been a lot of bad dudes and bad women turn their lives around after doing some awful stuff. I'm praying for that to be the case with this guy, his family and friends and any of those fools out there with him.

I know he caused it to happen, but that's a horrible way to get hurt or die, and a horrible thing to see happen to another human being. I hope that somebody walks away and drops their hatred and violence and rethinks their life.

This. Saul incited violent persecutions of new Christians in Jerusalem. A literal act of God transformed him into the Apostle Paul. This may have been an act of God that turns some people's lives around as well. There is hope for everyone.

Knowing Portsmouth like I know Portsmouth, here's what's going to happen. Assuming he's still alive, I haven't seen anything in the local news about him dying, he's going to sue the city, and you know what, he'll win. The city will give him a six figure payout. I can just see the headline on WAVY 6 months from now "Man who statue fell on during peaceful protest settle's with city for an undisclosed amount of money".

He was on meth/fent and stealing from a shopkeeper with counterfeit cash.

He was not some saint.
