Two things that are very disturbing in different ways

This kid took an insane amount of drugs while on IRC and webcam and died. The little dumbasses on the IRC channel kept insisting that nobody should call the cops because it might get him in trouble. Even more disturbing – he’d been prescribed Klonopin, Restoril, Methadone, and Inderal – all at the same time, all apparently without a thought to “might a 21 year old guy abuse these drugs with high abuse potential? Shouldn’t we just give him a prescription for a small amount at a time?” It’s disgusting, that he was prescribed the drugs, that he took them all at the same time, that he was egged by other IRC weenies, and that nobody called the police.

Yeah, I cringed when I read an article about that kid on IRC. What’s with these kids nowadays…

I just read the IRC transcript. They could have saved him. They knew his name but didn’t look up his hom ephone number. THe saddest thing is that his mom was in the next room 🙁
