With piss poor equip, a warrior cannot absorb as much damage. Honestly, regular equipment is 'good enough' until 40 man raid instances. At that point, only main tanks need to be concerned with equip.
But aggro control is everyone's job, and warrior's the primary hub. Warrior draws intial aggro, builds a bit, grabs aggro from every monster, and all other in the party hold off burst forms of aggro and start off slow. Equipment doesn't factor in. More damage, or special weapon procs are the only equip aggro contributers, and positioning, timing and order of skill use matter a lot more in terms of aggro control than equipment ever does.
I don't know what your party did or did not do, but your arguement is funk.

Are you just attacking me to attack me? Preaching to the goddamn choir, Drasca.
The guy had sub-par gear for a 60. This is FACT. In the normal course of business, I, lordly aggro generating paladin that I am, consistently pulled hate. That means I was judging light, hitting command, and letting autoattack do it's business. AUTOATTACK.
Hunters, well yeah, hunters need to control their aggro.
