Anton's parents were slightly older--around 40--when they had him, and he was their only child. The only child to older parents tends to be a close, intense bond, and I can't imagine his parents' lives completely being turned upside-down like that. No more children, no grandchildren. They must have felt like "What are we supposed to do now?" His grave is beautiful.

That's like driving down the street and you hit someone on their bike and they end up dying. You killed that person. Even if it wasn't intentional.

Dear Lamont I enjoy watching your videos. Prior to you doing the one on the Compton Police Officers, I had thought about you doing a video about them. I worked for the Compton Police Department during the 80's and 90's and knew both of them well. On the day of their murders, I was working day shift, and they were the last two officers I spoke with on the back lot before going home. In regards to Jimmy McDonald your right it was his last shift working as a reserved officer for Compton PD. He had been hired by the San Jose Police Department and was going to drive up to San Jose after his shift, his personal vehicle with some of his personal belongings remained parked for several weeks on the back lot. It was a bad time for everyone who knew both Kevin and Jimmy. Jimmy was flown to his home town of Santa Rosa, and is at a local cemetery there. May they rest in peace, and may you be safe during your travels.

Beautiful statue, beautiful cemetery

This isn't the first time in automotive history that this happened. If my memory is correct, the Mercury Cougar XR7 at one time had the FMX transmission. The FMX transmission had a cast iron linkage that connected from the transmission to the gear selector on the floor. Cougar XR7 gear selector was floor mounted and not on the column. When the Mercury Cougar was left idling in park, the vibration from the transmission would sometimes push the gear selector from park into reverse. Eventually, Ford did fix the problem by replacing the cast iron linkage with a cable linkage, and the FMX transmission had no more issues.
