Ryan O'Neal Arrested -- Shot Fired

121. Drugs know no limits when it comes to career, socail status or education. A choice to experiment can lead to a life of constant turmoil. This familys history has proven this time and time again. Griffin has proven himself dangerous in the past just as Ryan has. No one right now knows what really went on between them. Maybe something was said to make the much older and not well Father to feel threatened enough to draw the weapon. We see daily on the news all across the country kids, killing there elder parents in battles over the need for drug money. Or it could of been the rage of man who never regained control of a long exsisting Anger probelm. We should wait for the truth to come out and instead of passing judgement wish the family the strength to heal and finally conquer the demons that have torn the famly apart for so long. Good Luck and God's strength.

122. Ryan is and always has been the destruction of his kids. He has been a drug addict for years. All his kids have ever witnessed is their father using drugs. Remember poor Tatum who lost custody of her children due to drugs. She claimed her father introduced her to drugs at eleven. Drugs will destroy lives as we see here.

This is probably why Farrah, divorced him too much drug use. I fell bad for all of those kids, having a father like that. Hopefully- they will all stay away from him, and get professional help.

Ryan deserves any and all turmoil that comes his way.

123. 120...we must have been watching two different shows when Oprah interviewed Tatum. Oprah did say to Tatum that the drug abuse was her personal choice, however Tatum totally confessed to that. Oprah was very supportive to Tatum. Additionally, anyone who knows anything about this family would know that when Griffin was being charged for the boating accident the police said that the only sane family member was Tatum...and she made a statement just recently that said the truth will come out. Let's be sure it does. Everything will be revealed. Tatum surely made some major mistakes in her life, but she had a drunken mother and a father that abandoned her. She married a controlling and self centered man and had children too quickly without any knowledge of what a mom really is. It does not make her drug use right, but she was a drug addict waiting to happen. She has gotten it together and does have a relationship with her kids, and John McEnroe still harrasses her just like her dad did. The girl can't get away from these crazy Irish men with tempers. Give her some support. She deserves it.

124. Ryan O'Neal has been abusing his son for years. This is nothing new. How can you blame Griffin for his father's sins? Sad. Griffin may have his issues, but I guarantee you most of them can be traced back to Ryan and Farrah.

I knew Griffin a long time ago and he was a good guy. Leave him alone.

125. Responding to Michael's comments about knowing a junkie when you see one, what about Ryan himself? King Junkie. Maybe not heroin, but he introduced his kids to drugs.

Why does everyone stick up for Ryan O'Neal?
