I have plenty of compassion, but just because you make a spectacle of yourself in the public eye doesn't make you "special".

But that's not what you are saying when you condemn someone for their mistakes...I agree that she's no more special than the next person but that isn't my point...she was a person and we shouldn't belittle her. The fact that the media chooses to linger on her situation has nothing to do with my point! I find it ironic that I speak of compassion and people jump in with all this rhetoric...I never said she was better than anyone, simply the same! You speak of being responsible for your behavior and I agree...what the media says about her and what others say isn't your issue...only what you say! So enough with the red herring argument here...it is about the very thing you said you believe...personal responsibility! What she did with her life, how others enjoy condemning her, the whole circus...at the end of the day, it's only what I say that I am responsible for...same with each of us!

This was what the thread was about...I don't see disrespect.

I personally grieve the dead and have compassion for the living.
