[LeonardFMason]

“At least he died doing what he loved.”

And with the one true love of his life DRUGS.

He WAS and DIED an abuser of drugs. Calling this an accident is like saying the Germany accidently invaded Poland.

Calling this an accident is like saying the Germany accidently invaded Poland.

Hmmmm. I think the word "accidental" is being used in the sense that no one seems to seriously think that he intended to die.

Perhaps instead of "accidental overdose" we should adopt into popular consciousness the term "negligent overdose," by analogy to the phrase "negligent discharge" from the firearms world- it implies a lack of intent but still assigns fault where it lies...
