i didnt know adam and i never will but im pretty disrturbed with his sudden end
the only thing that pissed me off was the media calling him a cop shooter like he was trash and even if he shot the cop, cop shooter is dehumanizing and no one deserves to go with a bad name
i regret the loss of a fellow being and my thoughts go out to his friends everywere and family especially in san jose were i live
i am against suicide in its fullness but for some like Neil Young said "Its better to burn out, than to fade away"
Rest Adam Rest

Let's look at the facts.
He shot a cop, thus, he is a cop shooter.

By your logic, we shouldn't call a murderer a murderer because it might make him seem like a bad guy.

Adam had problems, mentally I would assume, or else he wouldn't have shot the cop. He obviously needed help. But this doesn't take away the fact that he shot somebody.

You know the old people who accidentally run down pedestrians in their cars?
It's kind of like that.
Except this wasn't accidental.

Take from that what you will.

alot of cops are pigs and ass holes, so it aint that bad of dehumanizing.

I did not know Adam and have not seen any of his movies.

I find it somewhat saddening that a topic that should have been in memory of a man who died has been turned into a flamewar, but such is the nature of the internet.

Rest in Peace LiveCorpse, and may your memory live on forever in the hearts of your friends and family.

Well....everyone eles on newgrounds has replied so why can;t I Damnit???

I never knew Adam, but he sounded crazy. He also sounded a bit racsiest but you know to each his own. If the guy wanted to poke his nieghbor why not? Everyone diserves to get stabbed every once in a while!

This is the way I see suicide....If you are crazy and think you should kill yourself then DO IT! if you havent looked out your window their are A LOT of fucking stupid/crazy people running aboot everywere! So why not? If you already want to? Your life is what you make of it...you feel like you're better off dead...who is it to say you aren't? We are not to judge if we are to believe GOD is to judge. I doubt anyone will realy read this anyway, but if you DO and get ANGRY with me! Talk to me.... we can share ideas. And ill probably prove you wrong.

Not to say Adam should not be remmbered for whatever good he did in his life.... just dont nit-pick the man for makeing his own damn discisions! At least he had the balls to do it unlike half of the whinny bitches I hear all the time.

Interesting Statistic:
More WOMEN attempt suicide!
More MEN succede!
0.5% of WOMEN commiting suicide shoot themseleves in the face.

I thought that was interesting.

Rest In Peace LiveCorpse

I am in the GLORIOUS USAF reserves. Every year we have a stupid class about suicide and they give us statistics like this. Just had that class 2 weeks ago.

he always has had respect!

People often weren't too keen on him because he sent in hundreds of fairly short average quality movies. I remember when he used to have 140 submissions in the portal. Nearly all of them had 2.- - scores. Now hopefully he will be appreciated. I liked his movies a lot, cos of the custom cursors./..

Dont know how that double post happend... sorry about that

I didn't know him, I may have seen one or two of his animations. All I can say now is RIP and he is in my prayers.

9 pages.. finally a post that reflects my own sentiment exactly. WooT!

life has a knack of compounding problems..

im not saying everyone could of stopped his death but ... the natural human instinct when it comes to a situation with a cop (possibly holding a life threatening object at you) is self preservation, which is what he did.

it's not even worthy of being called a human instinct; it's the lowest part of the brain that can still function after alcohol. I'm a kinda pissed that he mentioned w33d in the email, but as long as everyone is clear that it all directly followed "my neighbor Rick demanded 2 more beers..."

some other people said that he could of surrendered, i dont think so myself, after striving to preserve his own life with the shot the police were shooting at him, if he stopped he would of been dead any way.

precisely. it's not like the police would take the time to watch 100 NG flash on the way over to his place while sirens were blasting and toting guns. I don't buy into the "911- someone stabbed- protect and serve" aka COPS B.S. (yar, go flame me, kuz i don't live in the States) ..some cops or lawmakers will prolly read this yeah, and to them i say "like others, i came here for flash, the portal, but i stayed for the attitude.." I'm sane. Too sane. The ppl who run this planet make us crazy - the hypocrasy of it all. They make ppl like me wanna make a 100 Livecorpse movies.. with kids getting stoned and shooting other innocent kids - just so ma flash could airtime on ya mis-information ad-campains..

(stuff about American prisons and justice system)

I shouldn't go there.. except to say the fear of prison is NO DAMN WAY to make life outside any safer. They are only breeding evil. Then they release it into the community (more police funding) Then the community says "enough! Fk those animals, and throw away the key!" --Nuff-said.

these mental problems can lead to suicide, trust me i know about both... you are the sane people who have never been on the other side of the line in this life of ours, people like him know suicide is bad, but things do sway our judgement, like a mental problem.

OK, fess-time. i'm not totally-totally sane.. i have 'unconcious problems'. I dream really weird shit most nites - who doesnt?? long hours i'm being chased by something or someone - when i bother to remember, it's more often than not the police (exactly like LC sitch!) ..and the thing that puzzles me is that i don't remember doing crime - i just feel like teh criminal, and running.. and running..... mabye i'm an subconcious adrenalin junkie.. but without watching LC's flash i kinda know where he's coming from -- {were they only movies? were they premonition? who can say?} --but i have many thoughts on the matter.

he wasnt drunk when he ended his life.. if this happened then it was meant to happen and theres nothing we can do about it but learn from it.

thank you for reading, Mike

well, kudos to joo! it was a priviledge. me thinks LC would agree.

"we can all just hang in there.. or we could all do something about it - our choice!" - DREDD

thanks NG for making this frontpage news.

been reading through and just want to drop something about LC.

he always had an evil way to make ppl laugh. try to remember the good things he did, and not how he went out.

tell you what, like most people... i didnt like the first handful of movies i saw from LC. but they grew on you. i used to leave bad reviews, and he turned the other cheek, (most of the time)... he just had this way of not letting asswipes bother him much, and i respected that. in fact, one of his author replies to me was that he wasnt shooting for UOTD.
i thought he was joking, heh.

my sympathies to his family, friends, and his pals on NG. you were his family too. to the disrespectors, get a life. as i stated in the last LC thread, you prove what you're worth. nothing.

goodbye LC.

RIP LIVECORPSE

Although i never really knew him...

I mean, I never new the man, but I do feels sad when this happens to anybody.

But this kinda makes you think about the other members at websites and forrums. I mean, what if someone never posts here anymore, and it's because they died, how would we know?

Something like this that explains that a member died is very rare. If a member did die, pretty much every other member would never know and just assume he stopped comming. Atleast people will stop wondering where he is for months, even years.

He was labeled "cop shooter" not Cop Killer ©. The thing is, he still shot a cop and he was labelled as such. What the hell was he doing with a gun in the first place? Sounds a bit weird a guy who runs around with knives and guns, yet he's supposedly such a good guy. I don't know, if I knew someone who carried a gun, I wouldn't want to hang with him and would consider him a dangerous individual to be with. In Adam's case, I'd be right.

Most if not all people here who knew him, only knew the online version of him. We can be whoever we want to be online. Offline, Adam seemed like someone who needed to be in a mental institute. BTW if there is a record of his mental illnesses, his court appointed lawyer could have easily used that as a defense. He'd probably get put in a mental home and not have to worry about being some black man's bitch. They'd give him meds and probably even allow him to have his own computer. The upside would be he'd have a lot of time on his hands to make flash movies. Too bad nobody thought of that option who tried to say suicide was his only way out.

I Live in Tucson, AZ. I, did not however; know him. This is sad. Hopefuly NO ONE will make a crappy movie with a subject on LiveCorpse to get votes. I like those movies. They were great.
But people are mean and probably will make a crap movie to raise their rank. RIP man.

There are other ways of committing suicide than with a gun.
All those people saying "He should burn in hell" or anything along those lines, WHY are you on this fucking post? This is for memorial, not for flaming. A guy commits suicide, it is a cowardly way to die yes. But put yourself in his shoes. He was on the run from police. He had stabbed his friend, he had shot a police officer. It was either go to prison or die. And he chose the latter.

Rest in peace, Livecorpse.

too bad for him, well rest in peace my friend, i hope you rest peacefully in NG heaven.

RIP Livecorpse.

i was just saying another forum, the i've been that close to just ending it all, and it is a split second decision. but i remebered my family and how it would hurt them so i didn't. and thanks to them and my other half i'm still here and feeling much better.

all of you who are flaming him should sort out what's in your head. the guy has just died and he even admitted that it was a cowerdly way of doing it so give him some respect. to be quite i honest i blame his 'friend' for all this. if only he had listened.

Didnt know him personally, I spoke to him over aim a few times. He was a nice guy, R.I.P. Adam you will be missed.

a lot of stuff.

I concure.

woah, what a sweet way to go. if youre going, at least shoot a cop first, im not trying to be funny, that is really sweet. But seriously noone should ever commit suicide, its never the right choice. I sound too much like a therapist right now. so im gonna shutup. RIP LiveCorpse

100 flashes,quite a legacy.
Think how much more he could have done.
You will always be remembered by all Newgrounds Natives.
(Creepy Silence)
Um...bye.

Cant believe it... I only talked to him about 2 weeks ago....

R.I.P LivecCorpse, you were an awsome friend.....

dude he said he was crazy,like me its odd suicide amunst the mental unbalanced has reson almost 400% this year, but i guess his life can be a warning that no matter who u are or how good ur life is it can all change in an instant.
