286. To the Hogans,

~I know that alot of people are saying that it's Nick's fault and that he should go to jail, and whatever else they're saying. I just wat to say that it's not Nick's fault, and that it could have happened to anyone. I know that you are a great family and that you really care about each other. But at the same time Linda, Terry, I think you two need to be a little harder on Nick. Famous or not, Nick is a teenage boy and he needs to have rules. I think that you should take his license away for a few days or weeks, whatever it takes to teach him that he could loose his life behind the wheel of a car. They are powerful things and they could change you're life in the blink of an eye.~
~Nick I really hope that you learned a lesson from this, you have to slow down. Leave the racing for on the track. All it takes is one accident to change you're life forever. I don't think that going fast in a car is worth loosing your life.~
~I really hope that you're friend John is ok, and that he makes a speedy recovery.~
~My love and concern to both familys~

294. I am completely disgusted by this! Yes Nick is just a teenager and many teenagers drive fast. BUT he's only had his license for a year and look at his driving history! What the heck is wrong with Terry and Linda? They still continue to hand over these very fast cars to a 17 year old obsessed with racing! I watch the "reality" show and Nick is one of the most ungrateful, disrespectful,ignorant kids I've seen in a long time! I'm sorry but I have to blame "Hulk" and Linda on this one. Who gives their 17 yr old a lambourgini to cruise around in? What parents don't discipline their children after repeated moving traffic violations? Now, a life hangs by a thread and you're lucky it's not your son! I feel very bad for John's family. Nick is ok. I don't believe that he is remorseful. This kid has not been taught anything. He thinks the world revolves around him. He's not even a celebrity! Brooke works hard in her singing career. What does Nick do? He speeds along in daddy's cars and picks up girls using his dads name! Why isnt he in school? If he graduated, what about college? He's obviously not very well educated. Hulk, use YOUR money to pay for his education! Stop buying this punk cars! You're gonna lose him to death or prison if you don't stop this now!!!
