The couple that died were family of a store owner I know. I go very often. I'm not sure what to say when I go back.

One again a professional athlete showing they have no concept of responsibility, not that Dre was responsible for this guys action, but he could of helped prevent it. People lost their lives because of this, I can't see why people just don't call a damn taxi or Uber, it's ridiculous.

Dumbest tweet of all time. He just set himself up for major lawsuits. Not saying he is responsible, but the money hungry lawyers will use that tweet to go after his deep pockets.

How does anyone know that Dre didn't advise the friend not to drive? Because, drunk people always take smart advice..

They don't.

Dre's words state that he left him at the bar, so his last message could very well have been "Be smart".

Just perusing through Dre's twitter, you can tell he is a bit of an emotional nut. Gotta love him tho. At least he is trying to be a good guy.

[Okeana]

In my opinion he's just as responsible for their deaths.

Right, for all anyone knows, Dre could have offered to get him home safely.

So any time you leave a bar before your friend does there's a possibility you'll be responsible for death. Got it.

Thinking may not be apart of this now,just raw emotion.

Deactivate pls

I wonder if one day all autos may come with breathalyzers as standard equipment, and in order to start the car you'll have to utilize it. Nah, probably not.

I would assume he feels guilty and wants to use his status as a means to lead others to consider the situation and speak up/do something the next time it comes up in their lives.

On what basis? Don't just spout off...know something about the law before you speak. Dre is not liable to any plaintiff based on a tweet alone.

That's ridiculous. The grown man who chose to drink and drive is the only person responsible.
