R.I.P. Lucas Anthony Tang

For those of you still unaware. A two year old named Lucas Anthony Tang fell to his death at the Staples Center during the Lakers v. Warriors game.
 
To all of you questioning the parents of the child who died from a fall in the Staples Center and are claiming child abuse, GET A FUCKING LIFE. People have been questioning why they would bring a two year old to a basketball game. Why? Because you want your child to learn about sports. my son is almost one and currently watches soccer with wide-eyed amazement. i cannot wait to get him outside and play with him as well as take him to see a game because of the atmosphere you can only experience from a live sporting event. I feel so bad for this family. I could not imagine losing my son and the thought of him falling instead of their boy brings tears to my eyes. it is every parents worst nightmare to not be able to protect your child from this sometimes cruel, cold world and now that is something they have to deal with for the rest of their lives. those thoughts will never leave their minds, and no matter the outcome of the investigation they will always blame themselves. My thoughts and heart goes out to the parents of Lucas Anthony Tang. And as for ESPN. You should be fucking ashamed of yourselves. YOU WENT TO KNOCK ON THEIR DOOR FOR AN INTERVIEW AND WERE SURPRISED THEY DIDN'T ANSWER? You all need to get a life too. Leave this family alone. Give them your condolences. But do it through e-mail or a telephone call. People get pissed when they get calls during family dinner. If you show up at my doorstep the day after my son died asking for an interview or a statement, I PROMISE you the paramedics wouldn't make it in time and your funeral will be closed casket. Shame on you ESPN, you have always been one of the least classy news organizations in the world and this proves it. Should they have kept a better eye on their son? Who knows. Maybe someone they trusted was watching him. Maybe it happened too fast for anyone to see. Maybe he wandered away at the exact moment both parents looked away for one second. There is no reason for anyone to be so heartless through all of this. A two year old lost his life. Whether or not you want to blame the parents, you can't at this point. So chill out and remember that karma always comes quicker to the man on the other side of the figurative gun. Rest in Peace Lucas Anthony Tang.
