Vincular a Whitney Houston has died, and one word that is on everyone's minds is drugs. Many assumed that her death was drug-related, and even though that is a possibility, everyone needs to wait. However, Tony Bennett is using her death as some ridiculous political platform, saying that drugs need to be made legal; a stupid thing to say at a time like this.

Some are confused as to why legal access to drugs would make anything better. His reasoning is that so many stars have been killed lately by drugs. Some are downright disgusted about his comments, saying that it was alcohol that killed Amy Winehouse, which is a legal substance. Michael Jackson also died of drugs, but not the kind of drugs that could or should be made legal.

The main problem is that no one knows what happened to Whitney and people can't go around assuming things; especially a person who is as famous as Tony. Aside from that, legalizing drugs wouldn't help any kind of situation. There can't be countries with legal drug use. Marijuana is one thing, but these stars aren't using marijuana. Logically, the United States can't legalize crack because crime rates would go through the roof and citizens who decide to use would throw their lives away.

His comments are some of the most ridiculous that many have ever heard, and at the worst possible time to give them. Rest in Peace, Whitney.
