Where do you get that? I’m saying theres a ton of examples of people dying from drug abuse so why do these idiots keep doing it? How many examples do they need? This guy is doing heroin, how many examples are there of people dying from heroin? 1000s? Millions? Yet he still does it.

Anyway, now they are saying it’s all a hoax

That's the reason I asked a question. I had no clue what point you were trying to make. ;)

And to answer your question about why people do it, even with all the negative examples.... it's an imperfect world, and people are irrational.

It looks like his publicist said he was alive on Saturday (February 1st). He was found on Sunday (Feb 2nd). So, 24 hours after the rumor he really did die? Not that it is as credible as any other source, but Yahoo news is reporting his death.

My brother wanted to be an actor, went to the Boston Conservatory and then NYC. Did some off Broadway stuff and then hit a dead end.

The family decided that he was wasting his time and we sent him back to school he did well and is now well off.

He and I are drinking buddies, very close. In his opinion, not mine, most actors are seriously screwed up.

That’s a parody site. They say every celebrity death is a hoax.
