Motorcyclist hits deer, then kills himself

[R2]

Stop stating the obvious. 

You're ruining our far-fetched theories!

I think it supports your far fetched theories. 

[RichD]

It wasn't the right thing to do -but at least it's not habit forming...

And I support you whole-heartedly.  As long as someone has to think twice before trying something, I feel safer.  I don't choose to carry,but like having the option available in case I change my mind.

It takes all types.

It could also be an accident after an accident. Guy hit the deer, fell down, realized he has a gun with him, probably loaded and wasn't on safety, tried to secure it thinking the paramedics might arrive and see the gun, shot himself accidentally. Its like the guy from san jose a few years ago who got struck by a car while waiving for help after going down on his bike. An accident after an accident. It happens.

The whole scenario clearly is the work of squirrels.

The whole scenario clearly is the work of squirrels.

without a doubt, espically in pa. I've seen Philly squirrels hold open the flap on garbage cans while digging in it with ther other evil squirrely hand.

Always. On the bike, at work, in the car. It's a small inconvenience that protects me from that one in a million day where some asshole tries to end my life or the life of my family. Will probably never happen but if it does....

I hope you practice swerving around deer, too.

A Walther PPK/S doesn't take up much space but it will do a job on some one trying to do a job on you.

Always within arms length.

Also , I found out after a crash, I was in no shape to even reach my cell phone ...or gun for that matter even though they were around my waist in a Lumbar pack.

Had I not had on my Full face Helmet I would have died.

This individual may have been so distraught about the entire incident 1) crashing , ( unless you have been involved in a major crash you don't know how angry and stupid it makes you feel ) 2 ) if the Deer was not killed but struggling for it's life , that's a very traumatic situation , although better to finish off the Deer.

If the Deer died , which they often do , my one time g/f 's Sister just barley hit a Deer coming up the road to the house we were staying in and the Deer died right next to the road and when she came into the house after hitting the Deer she was in hysterics.

Lot's of possibilities here.

I feel stupid every time I crash...

and lucky to feel that way.

I say the deer was riding the motorcycle and shot the guy but the recoil knocked him of the bike and crashed and died when HIS helmet flew off. 

It is really the only way, unless zombies killed them both until they died.  But didn't eat them because the rescue workers arrived just in time.

This is a sad story.

RIP!

(i am up for fun and jokes but I can't lose sight of the fact that a person died one way or the other)

[rgramjet]

Maybe it was the Double Rainbow dude.

-or-

Maybe he dropped the gun while riding and it went into full auto mode as it tumbled down the street (a la Hollywood).  One bullet struck him followed by the rider swerving into the poor deer.

Bet the OP didnt realize the DMF had it's on CSI crew

[Benjamin5150]

Wow....and if this were somebody YOU knew and I was running my mouth like that??

a little respect is all

+1

He was a fellow rider.  Show him some respect.
