I don't recall anyone saying he didn't deserve to live because of his appearance. If "certain events in his life" is referring to his being suspended from school for drug residue, assaulting a bus driver, getting tattoos while underage... again I would never say he doesn't deserve to live. What I do see is a Person In Need of Supervision and a family needing parenting classes.
Yes, using a racial slur on this board is politically incorrect and unacceptable, (this is why I ediitted out the word when I quoted)but that he chose that slur as his FB name is an indication of his mindset and character.
