The Governor of NJ wants to lower flags for entertainers, have at it. He and I have different views of who should receive such an honor. He opened the door with Mr. Clemons. Kind of hard to close it for Ms. Houston.

Didn't say there were none. Said I didn't see any. Don't need you to point it out for me. The Genie is out of the bottle.

I didn't say you did and I think your reactive attack on me was uncalled for! I was simply providing a source for my statement as a result of the comments in your reply that not only you could read if you wanted to, but for anyone else to read if they wanted to check out what I stated. That's all I was doing, period!

The send off the entertainment and media world bestowed on Whitney Houston and for that matter Michael jackson was expected because it increases ratings and profits. However what it doesn't do is serve our young well.

I am an advocate for protecting the young as if they are a protected species. and so it is importnat that we watch what we teach them

What do you suppose young eyes and ears learned while watching these misplaced and emotional displays. Granted they deserved a fond farewell . As I mentioned in another thread the two times people say nice things about you is when you retire or when you die.

Heath Ledger, Michael Jackson and Whitney Houston died because of drug abuse and what does our society do make them legendary heroes. So let's guess how many young people will take the same path because after all even if they OD people will make them legendary even if it is for only a moment.

Our society is so upside down
