What do you mean by loss.....?? He isn't friends or a family member of Oscar or the girl.... What did he lose?

So unless you personally know the guy then something like this can't something. Personally I don't like the guy but I know he means something to plenty others, to have a hero fall this hard must be a pretty big loss.

Finding it hard to explain myself :p but yeah you got a point
 
Wow, reading the pages so far has really made made my evening a bit sadder. I could in fact at this point give my opinion, but I think I will leave it until all evidence has been considered, Oscar has been tried in court and a verdict has been given.
 
the facts according to media reports:

-shooting happened at +- 4AM
-Oscar is an experienced gunman
-Police had been at Oscars residence before for domestic disturbances
-Neighbours report to have heard arguing sometime prior to the shooting

you cant doubt that this whole thing is highly suspicious and I for one was actually quite depressed yesterday hearing all this. Some of the jokes are in extreme bad taste but I admit there was two light hearted jokes I could actually appreciate and kind of helped me out.
so be it.....

still, feel so terrible for Reeva and her family.
 
I agree, there are many facts, but it is not for us to decide whether he is guilty or not. I was also quite shocked to hear about this, and sad that it happened to him; most importantly because he is/was a role model for people around the world. My greatest condolences to Reeva's family, and I hope this whole story passes by.

EDIT:

Another ex-girlfriend, Jenna Edkins, defended Pistorius on Twitter. "All I am saying is let him speak, let his side be heard without jumping to conclusions," Edkins wrote.

You missed a fact
 
This is quite a blow for South Africa. Oscar was an ambassador for this country and was known around the world.
