I don't know why that we can't say how we feel. I think he brought this on himself. What more is there to it? He could have done a lot of things, a lot of things that wouldn't have led him to this. We do have choices every day. Except for accidents, we all have a lot to say about our destiny.
His family is not reading this. We aren't writing a letter to his family. This is something that some of us have an opinion on and it reflects our values and our history and our life experience. We all could have chosen things that would cause harm to us and bring shame to our families.
Most of us would not wish harm on anyone, but we can sure see what paths lead many to destruction and most of us have chosen not to go down them. We can't help cancer and accidents, and trees falling on us, but we can choose who we hang out with and how we spend our money and most of us have enough sense to come in out of the rain and not to start with dope.
It is WHAT makes our hearts bleed that tells a good bit about us. It is as if he raised a gun and shot himself in the head. He HAD the world by a string and chose to gamble with it..
