Damn, didn't think that was going to happen for him.  Must be lots of folks out there praying for him.[/quote]

I am one of them. He has been through enough pain already, deserves a happy life.[/quote]

+1 but I'll add productive life with a focus on his family and spirituality. Neither brothel nor drugs will be the answer to his search to end the pain.[/quote]
+2. I hope this is what he needs to turn his life around. I want him to get clean, get back with Khloe and for Khloe to get rid of the cameras in that part of her life.

Can't explain it especially since I don't care for the Kardashians, but there is something about Lamar that has me rooting for him.(Kanye too)[/quote]

He's an athlete - married to a fame whore -  whose stupidity nearly killed him (or did kill him).  why all the outpouring of love?

ridiculous

Any GOOD father would know better.  And if this genius does survive, his kids will never live this down.

You people are horrifyingly naive about the nature of addiction. How can you not grasp that someone can be good, kind, loving AND ALSO have a terrible addiction that they cannot fight, or can sometimes, but not others, and that they do not actively choose to hurt their families, destroy their own lives, make horrible decisions and do embarrassing things but literally cannot help but do so when addiction takes over?

Addiction can happen to anyone. Anyone. If it happened to your children, would you hope others would feel compassion, understanding, sympathy for them, or would you want people to say their life doesn't matter, if they die, it's their own fault? You're placing a paradigm of logic ("should know better") on something (addiction) that DOES NOT OPERATE in a logical manner.[/quote]

He was caught in a whorehouse with cocaine in his system!

No, I feel no compassion for him.  Fuck his life. That's his issue.   But he's fucked up his kids b/c he was too goddamn selfish to think of anyone but himself.

I'm logical.  I don't put myself before my own kids.  And if I did have some addiction, I'd take care of it before shoving it on a spouse or kids.   [/quote]

AGAIN, ADDICTION IS NOT LOGICAL. A person who is addicted to something, in their sober moments, will fiercely vow to do better for their spouse or kids, to fix themselves, to "just stop doing it." Then the dark thoughts set in. Whatever twisted thing in them that pulls them toward self destruction comes alive. They are not in control of themselves in those times. The addiction is. They are no more choosing to hurt their families and be a fuck up than those who commit suicide are CHOOSING to die. They truly feel they have no other option.[/quote]
