I’m not judging did you read what I wrote? For the good of our youth she should be publicly condemned for ruining and destroying her own life.

Yes, I read it, but failed to grasp the nuance of not judging while advocating public condemnation...

I've seen more than my share of deaths from substance abuse. I'm not saying we should put her on a pedestal. I do believe that "condemnation" is not going to hit the target audience very hard because those who are prone to addiction are very likely to think "that won't happen to me". What does work is instilling the notion that "hey, I'm like that" and "yes that can happen to me".
