Wrestling Legend's Son Busted for Heroin

31. And Richard and his family and loved ones will be in my prayers and the prayers of my family and friends and the prayers of everyone at my next meeting. I've already been praying for him as I pray for all the sick and suffering addicts out there that they may find peace in recovery. Educated people don't just wish that they go off and "OD".

32. and what is with this "black tar" talk? Who the hell does black tar heroin anymore? All the kids are sniffing it and pushing it. So no, Sabin does not know what they are talking about. they prolly just read an article about it.

33. I pray that you uneducated, inexperienced idiots who say this poor kid should go "OD already" and that "all junkies should die" and all that noise don't need a serious tragedy in your life to change your uninformed opinion of people who are suffering from drug addiction. And I mean suffering. I was only on heroin daily for three years but that was quite enough. I experienced mental and physical agony the likes of which I did not think were possible to endure. But then I experienced a pain so much more terrible and huge and engulfing that I hesitate to use the same word. There are no words to describe the pain of watching someone you love suffer through it. I would go back and go into withdrawls again in a heartbeat to make the people I love stop torturing and eventually killing themselves with drugs. It is NOT a lifestyle CHOICE. You choose to try drugs but NOBODY would choose to be a drug addict. They need our prayers, our love, and our support. They do not need people telling them to go OD and that they are trash and all that other closed-minded, never-been-past-the-city-limits-of-bumblefuck-tennessee crap that you imbeciles have been spewing on this comment board. Get out of your trailer and actually meet people who have conquered their addictions and they will show you what those addicts are like deep down and what they can be again if they are blessed enough to get clean. (Because it's either that you have no experience with drugs or drug addicts or you had a relative or friend that you turned your back on)

34. I tried commenting about how closed-minded and uneducated the people like MARIA are at least 5 times and NONE of those comments were put up (no confirming e-mail or anything, even though other comments of mine went through fine) But Ill try again. Hopefully it won't take a tragedy like losing a loved one to drugs for these people to wake up and realize that their kind of attitude is what keeps people sick and suffering on the streets. We need more programs to be more available to more people with drug addiction. They should not "go OD", they are regular people who made the mistake of trying drugs (something a vast majority of people do at least once in their life here in America) and got hooked. And as terrible as the pain of withdrawl is mentally and physically for the person themself (believe me, I know, I've gone cold turkey many times) it is NOTHING compared to the indescribable (I hesitate to call it pain because it is unlike anything I ever imagined a human being can endure) pain of watching someone you love go through the hell that is addiction. This boy needs prayers and professional help. The last thing he needs is a bunch of uneducated imbeciles who know NOTHING about drugs or drug addiction telling them they deserve to die because they made a mistake that THEY are paying for. You should be ASHAMED of yourselves.

35. heroin is a line that you can't come back across. and not near as much fun as good old marijuana.

36. i think MARIA with comments 1, 7 and 3 is by far the most narrow minded idiot of all time, why not just join a fundamentalist church bitch?

38. Maria, why don't you do yourself a favor and just die? You obviously have nothing going on in your life and need to put others down to make yourself feel better. You posted three comments on this story when only one would have been enough. For you to say that wrestlers are lowlifes and that any musclemen can do what they do clearly shows your ignorance. Wrestling is an artform. It is athletic entertainment and a billion dollar industry. It takes a wrestler years to perfect his/her craft. The more successful wrestlers can make millions of dollars a year. Wrestling is like movies except wrestlers do it all in one take. There's no director yelling cut and there are no stunt doubles performing the stunts. The wrestlers do their own stunts.

That being said, I hope everything works out for the Flair family and Reid gets some help. I've been a Ric Flair fan for many years and my heart goes out to him.

41. If this were Heath Ledger you'd all be saying what a tragedy. It's funny how if they are not famous then they're just junkies.
