There is no sense of personal responsibility anymore. Michael Jackson’s doctor was found guilty of leaving him with access to a drug that he injected himself with and died. Where was MJ’s family when this happened? Knowing full well that MJ is an addict, why weren’t they around? Why does the doctor have personal responsibility and not MJ, why is MJ excused just because he is an addict?

Never having been an addict, I don’t understand how hard it is to resist. But if anybody has to be held accountable, I would say it should be MJ and his family more than his doctor. Someone has to be blamed, and the doctor is a scapegoat. MJ is so rich that had the drug not been available through the doctor, he could have easily gotten it elsewhere. While the doctor does share some blame, its disgusting how he is being held liable entirely. I hold MJ responsible for his death, he was the one who injected himself.

Its like the case where 3 kids died due to corporal punishment, and the parents blame a book they read for guiding them to punish their kids severely to the point of death. Don’t these parents have any brains? I am appalled at such parents, its disgusting.

Or the case where a girl was texting on her phone and fell into a manhole, and complained that there was no “caution” sign. Well, how about not texting while walking and seeing where you are going?

There is just no sense of personal responsibility anymore.
