So...nearly 100 people killed in a shooting/bombing in Norway...and this is what people care about.

My thoughts exactly. Harsh, Lana 😬

It's been all over everything since yesterday morning...I find it hard to believe that people have heard about Amy Winehouse being dead when that was just announced in the past hour but not what's been going on in Norway.

You'd better believe it, though. I knew about Amy Winehouse first, because I saw someone mention it on Facebook and looked it up. Then when I logged into my email I saw the news about Norway. Don't watch tv in our house so wouldn't have seen the news on there etc. Bit presumptuous to think everyone follows media coverage the same way as you.

This confused me, I thought she died a while ago...

But they still had a choice from the start, they knew what they were doing was wrong...I doubt someone held a gun to their head and said 'Here take some drugs....stay up till 9!' But yes...some do try to quit, I was just simply stating though why someone would feel no sympathy towards someone who takes drugs or is an alcoholic.

With an attitude like that I hope you never fall on hard times.

I don't do drugs so I doubt that I will and I'm no alcoholic. People know what kind of effects drugs have, I know what they can do hence why I have never done drugs. By all means try and help drug addicts and what not but in the end it's them who decided to experiment with drugs in the first place and thats why they got hooked.

As someone who has worked with addicts I can say with complete confidence that your comments are uneducated and very imature.

Yes, yes, you're fantastically big and clever because you've never experimented 🙄

Stop being so close-minded. Experimenting with something does not equal addiction. It takes a LOT more than just trying something to develop into an addict.

She had so many more problems than a lack of self control. I feel hugely sorry for her and the unhappy life she must have had which led to her death. It's not only the drugs, they were her form of escapism and good for you if you've never needed to find something to lose yourself in just to escape the pain of your life. I'm pleased for you, but there's no need to act like she deserved to die and state that you have no sympathy. That's terribly cold.

Really not allowed to post here am I

You are without doubt the most imature and closed minded person I have ever come across. It is time you got your head out of your ass and joined the real world.

Nope, she just looked it.

Not all addicts are the same. Some people try with all their will to kick habits but for one reason or another they fail. To class all addicts in the same bracket is incredibly childish.

They have a nice medical term called "addictive personality".
It is a fancy way of saying weak willed. Apparently some in the medical community believe addicts are wired differently than people that can say no or stop when they are ahead. I couldn't tell you if that is 100% correct but it has been around for a while. Explains a lot. We just have more and better avenues to fail now but we always have managed to find one regardless, haven't we?

Well clearly you spend a lot of time in the real world, your an internet forum and I'm the 'most imature and closed minded person I have ever come across.' You must not get out a lot.

Anyway, Winehouse was talented. Too bad her demons consumed her. RIP

I knew who Amy Whinehouse was from people talking about her.

However, I have only seen pictures of her. She always looked like a drug addict to me and that was exactly what she was, apparantly. Based on all the stuff I've read on Facebook from my friends, I am inclined to be unhappy about her passing. Not because I cared about Amy, but because I care about my real friends. She brought joy to them, so why should I not feel a least a little bad that my friends lost someone they cared about?

I'm not going to try and sound cool by saying I don't care even a tiny bit about her passing, because I cannot honestly say that for the reason I outlined above. RIP, Amy.

Indeed because I'm obviously the most immature and closed minded person, ever. AHA! 😆

Modding the CB VS forum has taken a toll on my mental health...durcry2

Regardless of the disgreements above, Amy Winehouse was young and talented. It's a shame her demons got the best of her.

Edit: And Steve is not my friend. He is my arch internet enemy! sneer
