| This is so sad and shocking. |
Is he going to pull a Menendez brothers’ excuse? |
| I am seriously shaken. This is terrible. I'm such a big fan of Rob Reiner, and for this to happen during Hanukkah, and for his daughter to have found them...no words. SO sad. RIP Rob and Michele. |
I think other poster meant the full range of problems, not just killing parents. |
DP Calm down. Nothing they said was unreasonable. |

This is just so sad to me. What a terrible loss. His work had such an impact on millions of us.
I remember watching Stand by Me when I was 12 and feeling "seen" when Gordy felt neglected and rejected by his parents the summer after his brother died. I adored his sweet older brother who stood up for Gordy whenever their parents favored him over Gordy. Stand by Me was the first movie that ever "got" me. My teenagers love his movies and will be devastated when they hear the news tomorrow morning.

Decriminalizing drugs isn't working out the way most people thought. You need a carrot AND a stick with drug addicts.
More and more the cycle seems to be- become addicted to drugs, then become homeless and down and out on your luck, commit petty crimes to keep up your drug habit but rarely get arrested then even if you are you aren't detained. So then you are out on the streets and end up taking drugs that are cut with really various dangerous additives to increase dealer profits or enhance effects. This leads to permanent and severe brain damage including psychosis, mood impairments, aggression, and decreased cognitive functioning. |
That is horrible. |
It's almost like drugs are bad and using them shouldn't be normalized. |
| I don't know...I listened to the police press conference and the spokesmen--I think the deputy head of robbery and homicide--was asked about the People report and said "It didn't come from the LAPD." He said nobody was in custody. |
Almost? Absolutely should not be normalized, including marijuana and alcohol. |
+1 and it's true. |

What news was broken on DCUM? |
I have an uncle who moved his kids out of Southern California due to the influences. |
