Sure he probably did drugs - We know he smoked weed and got pissed as hell, vicitimless crimes. Does that mean he deserves this kinda sending off? I mean, it's not like anyones asking for your sympathy - Just a little respect. If you can't say anything good, don't say anything at all.

Ninty, you've suprised me here - Thought you had a little more respect.

I knew I'd get ragged on after reading all the "oh man this sucks" posts. But to tell you the truth, my opinion hasn't changed.

True, it says "he was frequently in trouble with the law, mostly for drug possession", and I guess thats better than killing people, but I think I would still call him a criminal.

If this had been Joe on the street, who had been in and out of jail, who died, we'd probably all say, who cares. But because this guy made some music that people liked, it seems like his offences are voided because of that.

I think a lot of celebrities get away with a lot of things.

If all the drug dealers/addicts murderers and other criminals were to die, I think the world would probably be a better place.
