I have NEVER once promoted the use of pain meds, nor have I ignored the damages that they do to people. NEVER once have I ignored the odd things around Prince's death. You clearly have great insecurities, as you are quick to make false accusations, dismiss someone as a "troll" or outright curse them out if they don't join in your hypothesis. What I do have issue with is: !. People-such as yourself- who have cruelly slandered the name and reputation of other persons by accusing them of murder, without any factual evidence. 2. People-such as yourself- who won't even consider anyone else as legit. unless they agree with you. 3. People-such as yourself- who feel the need to curse at other members of this board and treat others with blatent disrespect, trying to turn other posters against them and creating school yard drama, yet become hyperdefensive when anyone questions your thoughts or asks for evidence. I note you rare provide where you get your information when asked. 4. People -such as yourself-who throw out medical information as fact because they have "talked" to someone or read it and believe that makes them more knowledgable than someone who actually is an educated and licensed professional.
You can dance your happy dance because this is quite possibly the last post or visit I will make to this site. For the life of me, I can't understand how the moderators would even allow the nonsense that goes on here to continue if they hope this would be a respected and legitimate site. Never in my wildest imagination would I have thought that a community of persons who claim to be fans of Prince would come to a site and be so nasty and disrespectful of one another and towards him, his family members and his friends. Clearly few here are interested in intellegent discourse about the Artist, his accomplishments or his music- nor finding the truth about what happened, it's just a bunch of people trying to prove they're right through what ever means they can find somewhere on the web. Good luck eating each other alive. [Edited 11/1/16 18:37pm] [Edited 11/1/16 18:40pm] Sorry to see they've basically run you off too nooriginalusername.

More two cents from me: he didn't look well at the November 2015 awards ceremony. Thinner, bad coloring, carrying the guitar for no reasonable purpose ... New Year's Eve he was all bundled up for the private concert. Then, P & A M down under - some frailty. Back to North America and he supposedly seemed fine in Canada, then he appeared in March at the basketball game, clothed as if for a night outside in Minnesota, including the gloves. Supposedly again he seemed fine at the memoir show in NYC, but then he became "ill" rolling into April and then ... we know some of what happened thereafter. But, honestly, we don't know the facts except for the ME statement. This cherished soul died, alone, in an elevator, apparently struggling with demons we fams knew nothing about. He was loved by millions, but did he love himself? Was there no one he trusted enough to allow that person to walk the journey with him? We are fighting over semantics and credentials and speculation. Nothing will bring him back. And none of this will repair our broken hearts. | |

I personally believe he had a terminal illness. My opinion ONLY. BUT- I also believe he suffered chronic pain and addiction. He was, afterall, human.

I think this might be simpler than people think. He had some hip pain, which many people in their late 50's take something to deal with various forms of pain due to old bones, and he was taking vicodins and other things to help him manage that pain. Perhaps it wasn't prescribed, but what he was doing is not unlike what a lot of people do. My son plays football and when he gets injured we sometimes give him painkillers from old prescriptions to get him through the season. The problem is that he got a bad batch and it killed him. It is that simple. It happens to people all across the nation.

I'm speculating here, but I also think that Prince had no idea what the heck was happening to his body and perhaps he asked for tests to see if anything was up and maybe those were the test results that were being delivered by the Minnesota doctor a few hours too late. This is pure speculation on my part, but it makes sense. | |

. I agree! Prince was 57, after all. Even without injuries, we all get aches and pains at that age! I could not read the links because I used up my trial period with the Star Tribune! But, I see the headlines about the epidemic we are having right now. It's nothing short of a nightmare!

. Prince was well-read, like you said, so I'm sure he was aware of the Fentanyl epidemic in this country. I stand firm in my belief though, that he was not aware of what he was taking. I have a hard time believing that he would intentionally take a deadly dose of Fentanyl.

The Minneapolis Star Tribune has interviewed Toure, a podcaster and author of "I Would Die 4 U: Why Prince Became an Icon." Toure talked about how others said P eschewed drugs, including caffeine, when he was younger, but that later P used "prescription drugs, self medication, becoming addicted because they [many people, including P] are trying to deal with pain" even though Toure says this "isn't to me a real comment about him." | |

What distortion could U let your pen forget 2day?

Looks like good ole' BJB is still digging in the dumpster! Just can't seem to control herself. And to
make it worse.... some one comparing Prince to.. wait a minute... who??? Kanye West?? Really???
There is no comparison. SMDH Sorry Toure' you interviewed Prince one time?? I'd rather flush my
money down the toilet that give you a dime! [Edited 11/11/16 19:51pm] [Edited 11/11/16 19:52pm] | |

Good grief, it was virtually impossible to hear him over all the background noise going on and the echo chamber effect. He really lost me though when he indicated he preferred Kanye over Prince. Bye Felicia.

I also have found that bit of info puzzling, he somehow died before getting results...speculating here....from what happened to him on the plane. | |
