Maybe some people are quick to judge because they think it will hurt less if Benoit is the 'bad guy.' I can't do it. What happened was wrong, but it isn't my place to judge.

Even I need some drinks tonight; I'm just starting, I need to after hearing he may have killed them even though when I first heard I figured that it was probably a murder-suicide; reminded me of when comedian Phil Hartman had family issues and then was found dead; but now having it next to confirmed is too much

Anything can happen in this world. But no one in this forum is most likely going to ever know what exactly happened. and if someone does, then why are they here instead of helping the police?

Y'know, before I sleep I do want to say this.. All arguing and bias aside, I really think because of this board we really helped each other out through this confusing day, WC really is like a big family at times.

I just saw that they confirmed it a murder/suicide. As a father, I'm disgusted. Absolutely heart broken. If the confirmation holds true, he's no less a piece of scum that anyone else who has taken a life. Actually, anyone who murders any child, let alone one who you meant the world to is the lowest form of human being imaginable. I don't need to spill my heart out on here with disgusting words that would accurately describe a man who murdered his family, but human nature and my own experience as a father makes me judge anyone who would do such a horrible thing. But my judgment doesn't matter. None of our judgments matter. His fate is in God's hands now and if these things are true, I find solace in knowing that he will rot in hell while his wife and his baby are set free from this utterly disgusting and confusing world.
RIP to the innocent lives lost in this tragedy. I simply cannot believe this.

I posted the following on my Livejournal page. It sums up all my feelings. Damn will this look goofy with the filter. This is after explaining the situation.
We live in one f***ed up world. I've known this for years and this just more proof. Now I obviously never knew Chris Benoit, the man. I've never met him before and the closest I've ever been to him is at the mid-crowd at the America West Arena. So I won't judge him solely by his last actions in life. For all I know, despite this terrible end, he was the greatest man alive. I've done done shitty things in life and by no means do I think I should judge Chris Benoit. What I will remember him for are what he did in the ring, the hours he entertained me and work he put in each time I saw him on my TV.
The most f***ed up part of all is I can see, somehow, some TV group pointing to this on how wrestling is "evil" or whatever. Parents around the country boycotting or whatever. f*** it, that's all I have to say on the subject. I'll post later in the week. Peace.

Y'know, before I sleep I do want to say this.. All arguing and bias aside, I really think because of this board we really helped each other out through this confusing day, WC really is like a big family at times. No doubt. Thanks to everyone. When your real life friends don't give two craps about wrestling, it's good to have this place to turn to. Time for me to finally head for bed, as the updates appear to have stopped for now. I'll be back in the morning to keep following this. Still feels so unreal.

If it is a double murder suicide, maybe Benoit was under anti-depressant pills which caused him to go in a rage? If anything, I hope thats what the toxicology reports show.

Good night folks. It's been a weird night.
Everyone grieves in their own way. Don't feel bad for missing Chris and from enjoying his matches. It's ok. It's alright, it doesn't make you a bad person. Please remember this people. I'll see you in the AM before work.
Good night, Cole.

Agreed. None of this makes any sense, and I doubt it will make sense in the morning. But this board has really helped.

none of this is clicking with me... still I'm still puzzled/purplexed by this whole deal. I would never...EVER...imagine any wrestler - let alone Benoit - having this (which we still don't know what exactly did take place) happen to them/their family.

Thanks to everyone for being here today and being someone to talk to during all of this. Wrestling deaths are a dime a dozen, but I've never been affected by one like I am with Benoit's. Tragic, man. Us crappers have got to stick together.
