Guys, she's dead, she couldn't care less whether I disrespect her by cracking a few jokes. The only people that this would even directly disrespect would be your sensibilities - in which case that's your problem, not hers.
She has a family, she has fans (not me).
It's nice (and cool) to be a good person and being a good person includes respecting other peoples lives and feelings.
Cracking jokes about someones death would be slightly less bad taste if it were someone generally accepted as "evil", for example Usama Ibn Laden or Adolf Hitler, but not a normal person who never hurt anyone except herself.
Remember that your future child can fall into an addiction too, then you will be just like Whitneys mother who (from what i read on the web yesterday) desperately tried to help her, but failed.
You think that you can disrespect her because killing yourself with narcotics is dumb.
Wrong thinking.
What is dumb is using them for your first time, then it becomes a war between your strenth of will and the biochemistry of the drug.
If you look at drug addicts you will most often see weak, fragile, emotional people who need help to continue to live in this fucked up world.
Is it their fault that they are weak, fragile and emotional ?
Is it really OK to laugh at their weakness ?
Can they choose to become someone else when no one is there to help them ?
It is mostly about their lack of resistance against that physical pain that comes when they try to lay off the drug plus general lack of emotional resistance against living in this world.
Emotionally weak people literally cry every time they realise that for example right now somewhere on this planet an innocent child gets ripped to shreds in a car accident or is being raped and abused (i know such an emotional person and she is a great person, but she needs my support to not to fall into that hell - maybe Whitney didn't get enough of that type of support).
What about me ? Why am i so strong ???
I went through a healthy dose of physical pain even in my childhood, it made me strong, any less of that and it would not have that positive effect on my character, any more pain and it could break and destroy me.
Yes i feel bad when i think about all the bad things that happen in my life and all around me, but i have that great ability to turn off thinking about all that fucked up shit.
Every human being is different because we all experience different things in life.
So don't judge if you don't know all the facts from someones life or even better don't judge at all.
one of the last few great's that was left.
