Oh good, an argument centered around you assuming you know what I'm thinking.
The point I'm making is that the Norway situation was a much more tragic event, but because Amy Winehouse could sing and made a big deal of her own spiral down into drug addiction, she gets talked about in the media and on the internet a great deal more often. I'm not whinging that the average person knows about Amy and not the kids, that's not their fault. What I'm b**** about is the fact that the media makes a bigger deal of Amy. Can you imagine how the parents of any of those kids must feel? To have your son's or daughter's horrible unfair death mentioned on the news briefly and only once, and then have the next week's worth of gossip all be about Amy Winehouse, who probably killed herself?

I know exactly what you are talking about. You want those kids to be talked about as much as Amy. Please refer to my other post and read it until you comprehend what I'm saying. If you need help ask your neighbor.

How could I supply even an iota of respect for somebody who made the decision to take drugs at the height of their career, killing themselves?

Doesn't that happen with like, a lot of singers? It's either alcohol or drugs.

I wonder when that'll happen to Justin Bieber.

No, his hype will die off and he'll just get on with the rest of his life.

Unless he tragically dies, and then the hype actually starts anew.

Honestly, I don't see Justin Bieber OD'ing or something like that. He seems to have half a brain to know not to do that.

So, you have no respect for Jimi Hendrix or Kurt Cobain, who died exactly at the same age and the same reason.

Its alot better than that faggy MCR s***.

ODing is no better than committing suicide. So no, I don't have any respect for him.

Haha, you're such a f***' straight-edge, Geno.

Loosen up. And I'm totally against drugs, btw.

Yes you're very clever, you isolated why she got more attention. She was in the spotlight. She was a singer. They were random kids.
The problem I'm referring to is that her status as a singer somehow, in our minds, justifies her getting more attention.

Good, now go read the part about different people getting different things and stop talking.

pffffft... hahahahahahahaha, nope.

i am god and i will now tell you facts

*Mr. Cobain was a human which makes him better than mcr
*Nobody cares about the 92 teenagers who died including that white knight who brought it up, stop pretending to give a s***
*Shut up Tid (yes this is also a fact)
