If you put any of the following hashtags #RyanDunn, #jackass #RIP, #ebert, #dontdrinkdrive into Twitter, immediately you'll tap into a big debate happening right now. Here's how it started. Ryan Dunn and Zachary Hartwell died yesterday in a car crash. Dunn who was driving, was a celebrity, a star from the MTV programme Jackass.
drinking apparently before getting in his car. We don't know for sure, and currently an autopsy is been performed on Mr. Dunn's body. The photo above is of the scene of the accident.

Roger Ebert is a famous film critic, he tweeted Friends don't let Jackasses drink and drive.

And so an online debate has kicked off on whether it was appropriate for Ebert to tweet his thoughts on drink driving. Tons of people think it was, they do not find drink driving acceptable, here's a couple of their comments.

@october_cmu: I lost a friend to a drunk driver, So I agree with what Roger Ebert said. drunk driving related deaths are 100% preventable.

@ColetteLala: Why is everyone getting so mad at Roger Ebert? Let's remember, had Ryan Dunn lived, he'd be facing manslaughter charges right about now.

Others though, think Ebert had no right to speak out and have berated Ebert for even bringing it up.

Here's what Bam Margera, Dunn's co-star said in a tweet that immediately went viral:
I just lost my best friend, I have been crying hysterical for a full day and piece of (expletive) roger ebert has the gall to put in his 2 cents. ... About a jackass drunk driving and his is one, (expletive) you!
