While I was never a Whitney fan I am a bit shocked by some of these comments. Somebody started a thread titled "RIP (person)" and people almost immediately start bashing the dead. I'm not much of a Bible reader either but there's some such verse about not throwing rocks at someone unless you yourself are faultless. We've all made mistakes, that's how we grow and learn. Fallibility is one of our defining characteristics as humans, just some make larger mistakes than others and rebound faster too. I think some of us could learn a bit of compassion(not necessarily for the deceased but perhaps towards those for whom she will be missed). Now I realize from reading this thread that some of you are very passionate about drug use and that's awesome, I'm 100% anti drug too. I'm also convinced this thread is not the proper venue for a "flaming Whitney Houston" extravaganza.

My condolences to those who are saddened by the passing of Whitney Houston.
