isn't it chilling - it's like how long iwll he last?

I shivered reading that on the bus this morning. I don't feel too optimistic for him when he gets released either . I hope that doesn't sound horrible but from the tone of the interview I couldn't help but think he's going to get himself back in trouble as soon as he's free.

That's AWFUL.

Grim, grim all around. Very well-written too, in suggesting plenty of all-around complicity while letting a reader draw conclusions on his or her own.

It's really sad how they're releasing his albums as if he was dead already. And when he's like "E-40's on it?"... man....

Well...he brought it on himself. There is no telling how many other stories like his are out there, only perhaps even sadder. He had it and threw it away. Some people never had it. Of course, I just don't have much pity for a person with 13 children who doesn't take responsibility for them (or for that matter himself). However, I do believe that prison is no place for most non-violent drug offenders.

Drug addiction or mental illness can obviously impede a person's ability to take responsibility.

Excuses excuses, lock that one up.

But counseling should be provided of course.
