Cancer is a disease. Doing drugs is a choice.
Cancer is a disease. Doing drugs is a choice.
Many forms of cancer are a choice, using drugs once is a choice.
Once having cancer, once having the addiction, it often becomes a disease imo.

I disagree. I did a lot of drugs in my youth. On a daily basis in fact. I don't do them anymore nor do I desire them. Doing drugs is a choice, becoming addicted is self inflicted. Resulting trauma and deaths are therefore self inflicted.
I have no pity in this area.
As much as I liked Whitney's music, I don't think the flag should be lowered for her death.
That act should be left for a higher reason than being a music artist. IMO
I heard him say he was doing it to draw attention to drug abuse and addiction. He called it a disease. That doesn't sit well with me. I consider that a cop out.

If Leonardo Da Vinci were alive today living in New Jersey, and died tomorrow, would anyone oppose lowering the flag for him? I'm inclined to place great weight on artistry and its valuable place in society.

Whitney is on the same playing field as Leo? Pahlease

Last night, I went out and drank alcohol. Alot, as a matter of fact. I am not addicted to alcohol even though I've made the choice plenty of times in my life to consume it. But some people can drink very little alcohol, and become addicted. Because addiction IS A DISEASE. You don't choose to be dependent. Dependency comes to you. It doesn't require "over use." Addiction can come to you through even marginal use.
There are many people who developed cancer from smoking cigarettes. Should we say that they aren't actually sick, too?

Yes, those people are aka weak minded. Giving bad behavior an excusable label is just so neat huh.
Backbone, will power, strength. We all have it, some are unwilling to use it. That is their choice.
Celebrities i agree, we shouldn't worship them, I've never understood that.
But i don't get why we should hate someone, who after using a drug one time, has their mind altered so much that their brain demands they use again no matter the ramifications.
This coming from me, someone who's never once used any illegal drug. Not even weed.
Is that what you believe? That using a drug once alters one's mind enough that their brain demands it? Sorry, I ain't buying it. We control our minds. Our minds do not control us. This coming from someone who has smoked weed and from someone who has turned her Life around for the better, knowing that everything I need comes from within. But, I needed the assistance of outside sources to learn the powerful source I have within.
Ask a doctor how many uses it takes to get hooked on cocaine or meth. One time, and a normally good person could get turned right into a fuck up.
I think we should use it as an opportunity to get the good person back, rather than throw that person in prison.

Do you think, purely from a physical point of view, that every person on earth has the same chance of becoming addicted to a substance? Or that individuals have a different chance purely because of their physical makeup?
What about ignoring the fact that she's a celebratory, would you support putting the flag at half mast for someone who died and donated millions of dollars to charities during their life?
Actually, I think there are ways to honor celebrities and philanthropists on their death. I think Houston is worthy of civilian honors, parades, moments of silence, proclamations...
I think a flag at half staff denotes the loss of an American hero. I don't think a pop singer is a hero
I don't think a pop singer is a hero either.
I think someone who donates 100% of their sales proceeds to charity for one of their songs is doing something heroic.
Couldn't care less about her music that i never listened to, her charitable donations? That means a lot to me.
Chris Christie criticized for Whitney Houston flag plan
Gov Christie has ordered that all state flags in NJ be lowered to half mast this Saturday to honor Whitney Houston
Is it appropriate?
