I can buy he was not a happy go lucky fellow but dying inside come on that is so melodramatic. Even Elisa said he knew he was loved and he had people around him who loved him in the last years of his life. He was not sitting in the basement of Paisley Park stuffing pain pills in his mouth all day. He was the one he sent people away in his last days meaning he wanted to be alone.
I think people are projecting. | |

An ironic choice of words as that may very well have been EXACTLY what he was doing. | |

Yes, he stuffed a massive amount of pain pills in his mouth and then went for a bike ride, threw a party and went to see a jazz show.
I watched a documentary on HBO last weekend about pain pill abuse none of those people could stand up straight. If you take a massive amount of these pills you are going to in one of 3 places.
Knocked out, vomiting or crapping. I know what I am talking about because this happened to me after gallbladder surgery. I ate percocets like they were tic-tacs for a day.
You would not be doing 3 hour concerts and following it up with a after show and a breakfast of pancakes. Getting six hours of sleep and doing it all again the next day and keeping this up for 30 years.

I have to be honest here. I had no clue Prince led the life he did. Not that I was privy to any information on his private life - I never paid any attention to that, frankly. But he just seems to have been so alone in every aspect of his life. Like others have said, you can have friends all over the world, 100,000 people in a stadium screaming your name, the respect and admiration of your peers, even wives and girlfriends who loved you, but when the door closed, it was just you and the guitar, and that wasn't going to hold you at night, and comfort you when you needed it. It's just very, very sad to me. | |

Maybe he wanted it to be that way. As far as women were concerned he did everything he coulddo too push many of them away. He wanted to be a womanizer and those guys always end up alone and I think he knew it . [Edited 5/12/17 9:10am] | |

Easier to push away then maybe be hurt, like his mother hurt him years ago. | |

First of all, if she did in fact know 2-years ago that her Brother was gonna die, you would think that she would know if there was a Will, and Prince would have had things documented and in order before he knew he was gonna die!

. I understand, however if there is money missing from the Estate, the authorities need to investigate where it is. KJ was manager of PP, so I'm sure he was managing funds for Prince.

Thanks for your explanation. In my opinion, your views are a little muddled, overly simplistic, and, as has been the case for the past year, are more reflective of a commitment to conservative morality than a medically or socially informed vantage point, but I certainly know that's your deal. You've repeated it lots of times. - The funny thing is, despite what you claim, I've never described Prince as a "recreational drug user." Not once in a year. That's because I don't find rigid, morally based classifications at all useful for discussing a complicated, multifaceted issues that can change over a person's lifetime. At the end of his life Prince's crisis was that he couldn't control his opioid use on his own, and he didn't get the help he needed. That was the tragedy. Using the word "recreational" to describe ANY person who's reaching that dire place is pointless, at least to me. - My experience has been that human behavior (including relatinships with substances) often don't fall into such neatly delineated, morally discrete categories (of "all good" or "all bad"; "all acceptable" or "all unacceptable," all the time). Someone could very well start taking opioids because they're prescribed them, and find out that they "enjoy the high," as you put it, because it helps them escape from, say, the reality of bad marriage. Life has so many gray areas, and so do people and experience. - People struggle in a variety of ways, some that are visible or explanable to others (like physical pain) and some that aren't. My goal is try to stay open-minded to that range and complexity of ALL those experiences and struggles (even ones that are very differnet than mine) and look at people with compassion instead of judgment, rage, and disgust. I'm not perfect at it, but that's what I try to do. - What it comes down to is, we have little common ground in our worldviews, frankly.

Sometimes when you go cold turkey from these pain meds it is very dangerous and life threatening. It's better to gradually decrease the meds .===== think it adds up. Prince was using the pain killers for his pain and became addicted, he tried to get off of them by himself and that didn't work. Kirk went to his (kirk's) dr and either got a script for himself, or got a script for Prince under his name. But the dr. has 2 different stories. I think Prince was on the pills for a long time, he became tolerant and needed more and more. The pills are hard to obtain, someone got the pills from the street which unbeknownst had the fentynal in them. Romeo the bodyguard said he usually packed Prince's bag and never seen the drugs, my feeling is because they were always hidden in Aleve, Vitamin, Aspirin bottles and Romeo thought it wasn't unusual to pack those for Prince. . The thing about street drugs, is you never know what you are going to get. . I also don't think that Prince took 1-2 pills like he told the hospital in Moline when he OD on the plane. I think those were Kirk's pills and he gave them to Prince. . All of the above is my opinion. ^ .=====
Yeah, he was poisoned by the street drugs that he took. You start buying off the streets, you never know what you are going to get. That's why there is a lot of deaths in the states right now, due to these drugs .=====
.===== t was an active homicide investigation because they were looking for the person who sold or gave these street drugs to Prince. .=====
MO, I don't think that anybody had the intention to kill Prince. I think they thought they were trying to help him by acquiring these drugs for him. Little did they know that they were deadly. Once again when you get street drugs, you never know what you are going to get, for all anybody knows, they could be cut with rat poison, who knows what these idiots that make them put in them .===== Prince died because HE, gave himself the fake pill. Prince took those pills by his own hand, they were self administered. .===== don't think anyone but the drug dealer/pusher/maker knew they were fake. Whoever obtained those pills for Prince, probably didn't know either, neither did Prince. Again, you never know what you are going to get when you buy off the streets, there could be rat poison in there for all we know. He self medicated himself. .===== Stop right there. See the bolded above. NEVER have I said this is what happens when the addicted use street drugs. DO NOT put words in my mouth. I said You never know what you are going to get when you get street drugs. So just STOP IT RIGHT THERE. . And don't bring race into it. This case has nothing to do with race. . Usually when people bring race or Hitler into the convo, it's because they've already lost the arguement and the only thing left is to throw those words into it. .
AGAIN, we are not talking about other cases, we are talking about Prince's case, and race is and was not a factor, IMO. .===== You really must not read what other posters say, or you just can't comprehend, because you sure in the hell haven't comprehended what I've been saying, you have everything so twisted about what other people have said.
You know these are not the post I'm referring too. I'm talking about he ones where you said over and over that it's Princes own fault he died because he was taking street drugs. Now I don't argue on a he org too often and actually you are the the first person on here that made me angry enough to say what I said. I do not take it back either. You are outright disrespectful to Prince and I will stand up for him. No one threatened you either crybaby I asked Prince what he was planning to do. He told me , I'm going to look for the ladder.

Penny if Laura changed your words then I think you should definitely bring that to the mods attention. Inciting that kind of anger while bringing race relations into a discussion simply to give her more to rant and rave about is totally reprehensible, especially when we are dealing with drug addiction topics which can be explosive all by themselves.

Tkya has nothing to do with Prince's will. If wanted to have one he would have drafted one he did not end of story. If he knew he was going to die and told her ahead of time so be it. Is it so out of the realm of possibility that he was ill? | |
