About Rush being a perscription pill junkie, that's what. I do not care. We have all had some problems. I just hope this makes him reconsider his stance on the WOD.
Years ago I had an embarrassing problem myself. I remember feeling so ashamed and as though I had let so many people down. I will never forget what a friend told me: "Everyone who liked you still likes you. Everyone who didn't still doesn't."
That really put things into perspective. I could demonstrate my remorse to my friends by demonstrating I had changed the behavior which had landed me in trouble. My friends were pulling for me. I stopped worrying about my enemies.
I hope so as well. But being the Drug Warrior he has been in the past, if all the allegations are true he should accept the consequences of his actions and be thrown in jail and treated as harshly by the courts as any street junkie would be. Hopefully he doesn't fight for "Hollywood Justice" as he has so often railed against it.
Sometimes the only thing that can change the minds of those who support senseless laws and raw government power regarding them is for them to be hit with the hammer of justice they blindly swung themselves.
And with his constant calling for personal responsibility, decrying the playing of a victim, and all else that goes with it he better stand up and take it like a man. For if he does anything less, his credibility will evaporate, and rightly so.
Hopefully these accusations are wildly false and my above post is irrelevant. Only time will tell.
