But I will not lose any sleep over a drug abusing celebrity with to much time and money on there hands. I have compassion for people fighting cancer or soldiers fighting and dying in a foreign land. What we need is more compassion for the common person not the over privileged.
Did you read my post? I didn't insinuate anything, I plain said it. I didn't point fingers or list names because I wasn't paying attention to who was saying what. I was just a bit disturbed by SOME of the comments. I suggested if we can't have compassion for the person who died we might show a bit towards those who will miss them. If you're lacking compassion maybe empathy for those who might have been close to the deceased. If someone you cared about passed from a possible drug overdose and you started a RIP thread for them how would you feel if people started making some of the comments we're seeing here? I've lost friends and family to differing causes, some out of their control, others of their own devices. I don't miss the ones who brought it upon themselves any less than the ones who had no control over the circumstances of their death.
