If people are thinking that it could have been them, then apparently they are unbelievably poor decision-makers, and hopefully they will change.
The latest story says that this young woman ingested between 30 and 40 drinks in 11 hours. That's not youthful indiscretion. That's not the mistakes we all make when we're young. That's not a random tragedy like a college student getting hit by a car. What she apparently did is about as smart as jumping off a twenty-story building.
It's a horrific tragedy for the friends and family involved, but I don't think we should deny the reality that (unless current reports are mistaken) this woman died because she made choices that anyone with basic intelligence should know are likely to be lethal. IMHO, Colorado State students, that could have been you if you habitually aim a shotgun at your own head. If you act like one-tenth of the adult you legally are, then it couldn't have been you.
