yea its a sad thing and a shame, but i have to say the whole crap about drugs drag you down just annoys me. Drugs only drag you down if you abuse them like almost anything, if someone eats food constant they will get fat as f**k and have all sorts of problems with health.
Its always the same when someone dies with drugs involved, drugs are some evil thing and the drug dealers are like the bad guy in fairy tale out to get everyone addicted. Drugs are not evil and most people who take them are just fine and have stable jobs and most drug dealers only sell to people who want the drugs and go to them.

am not going to get in a debate about drug use with yourself as you are obviously a user or seem to defend the use of drugs, but there is no safe level of use

though i liked her music i have no sympathy/ respect for drug addicts. thats what you get for disrespecting your life, family and friends. agree with flipped but not fully, drug dealers also have a role to play in this. drug abuse wont be this rampant if drugs werent available so easily. autopsy has been inconclusive but lets see what toxicology report has to say.

and as for pushers I presume they are selling drugs for the users benefit? and of course they care about those who buy and warn them of the dangers and risks?

i know this is off track but whatever killed her should not over shadow what the beast Anders Breivik has done in Norway....the news seem more intrested in a girl who was lucky to live this long,she did have a choice.....rip to the Norwegian people that had no choice....

i am not a user of drugs but i have been in the past and i really do know what i am talking about as i know and have been in all the circles you are talking about. Just say no how has that campaign went? not very well i can say. The sooner people come to grips what the real problems are in society the sooner problems like this get solved.
As for drug dealers its a simple thing of supply and demand. They are selling drugs to make money same as pubs sell drink to make money not for anything else, if there was not a demand for the drugs the dealer would not have anyone to sell to and no matter what you think a dealer does he not have any special powers to make people buy them. As for warning of the dangers this is the modern world everyone knows the risks and even get taught in school and if they dont know the risks they must of just came from the jungle not to catch on to that one lol its the 21st century
you can say what you want about drugs as long as you think drink you be illegal to but if thats ok well you cant really say anything as drink kills more people that all drugs together.

She did 3 times. Some people are just train wrecks, no one and no substance to blame, natures selection, her death looks more like suicide. As for the drug debate, well I have always thought that full legalization and regulation would put a stop to many problems, there are plenty of legal drugs and natural ways to get a high. Of-cause i'm not saying crack over the counter, but if it was all controlled then pushers wont get a chance to get you hooked, the soft users that is, those who want will. In the UK coke and pot are the main drugs of choice, when the user is unable to get the usual fix they turn to the next available thing, with legalization the will be no "next", everthing will be clean, taxes paid and all at a price that the user will not be a consistent user(so no/less addiction). The taxes paid can be used to help those who have addiction, and better scrap the lotto postcode for the likes of cancer treatment. Just a small thought as to truly reflect what I'm saying i would have to write a book. As said above, drugs are not that harmful, its down to the user, the option will always be there for them, half the hardcore drugs were introduced by governments, regulate is the key to reduce hard users, recreational users are not a problem. And why do people not trip anymore? all ways uppers or downers, trips are by far the best and least dangerous drug in the underground market....YES much much more less dangerous than alcohol and fags. For anyone really against drugs, ask yourself did you ever buy say an Amy Winehouse album?, then you bought her next fix, you are worse than the dealer.

Like her probably thousands die each year and everything stays the same. drug user and non-users alike know of this, they know the risks and what can happen when u use/abuse drugs. it always just happens to others and u always know ur limits... then the same happens to you and u couldn't care less coz ur dead...
