Whitney Houston |
The regretful passing of an American entertainment icon -- Whitney Houston --
marks yet another sad milestone in the devastating body count of the
prescription drug industry. TMZ is now reporting that Whitney Houston was found
not with illegal drugs, but prescription drugs that may have killed her or
caused her to drown in the bathtub.
(http://www.tmz.com/2012/02/11/whitney-houston-prescription-drugs-drowned-dead-dies-bathtub-body/)
Houston had
"a plethora of sedatives including Lorazepam, Valium, Xanax, and a sleeping
medication that was found in her hotel room," reports Radar Online
(http://www.radaronline.com/exclusives/2012/02/drugs-whitney-houston-hotel-room-valium-lorazepam).
"The
prescription drugs were officially taken into custody by the Beverly Hills
Police Department," the website reported. An autopsy has yet to be
performed, and it will reportedly provide more conclusive information about the
actual cause of death.
Whitney
Houston was also taking Xanax, a psychiatric anti-anxiety drug
According
to Fox News, Houston's family members said she was taking Xanax, a powerful
psychtropic drug
(http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2012/02/12/whitney-houston-dead-prescription-drugs-drowned-autopsy/). As
NaturalNews has reported many times, mind-altering drugs are known to cause
erratic behavior and suicidal thoughts.
(http://www.naturalnews.com/032097_antidepressants_suicidal_tendencies.html) and
(http://www.naturalnews.com/022743.html).
Although
Xanax is not an SSRI drug, its side effects include:
- Aggression
- Rage and hostility
- Twitches and tremors
- Mania, agitation
An overdose
of Xanax may cause:
- Dizziness
- Fainting
- Coma
- Death
Xanax is
widely promoted throughout that DSM-IV, the "bible" of modern
psychiatry which promotes the use of prescription amphetamines to children
(among other bizarre chemical recommendations).
Whitney
Houston showed clear signs of pharmaceutical adverse effects
"[Houston,]
who struggled with drug and alcohol abuse in her later life, made a bizarre
appearance just two evenings before," reports US Magazine
(http://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/whitney-houston-shaky-erratic-at-club-two-nights-before-death-2012112)
At a
pre-Grammys party at Tru Hollywood Thursday evening, the beloved Grammy-winning
singer seemed "wasted" and "moody" as she exited the club
past midnight, according to a witness. "She reacted angrily to the
security guards trying to get her into her car...and started cussing them
out."
Although
the superstar smiled when fans approached her for autographs, "she would
get moody again in a split second," the observer says. "It was sad
because her fans noticed that she was really shaky as she left the venue. She
definitely was not in control of herself."
This is the
behavior of a person who is using either prescription psychiatric drugs or
recreational drugs (or perhaps both in combination). That this was observed
with Houston on multiple occasions is very strong evidence that these drugs
were altering her brain function and thereby radically altering her personality
and behavior.
Heath
Ledger was also killed by pharmaceuticals
You may
recall the death of beloved actor Heath Ledger, who was killed by prescription
medications in 2008. Read the NaturalNews report on his death at
http://www.naturalnews.com/022537_Heath_Ledger_pharmas.html
Remember:
for every celebrity death caused by prescription drugs, there are hundreds of
thousands of deaths of everyday people from prescription drugs, too. In fact,
according to published scientific statistics:
Prescription
drugs kill over 200,000 Americans every year -- even when taken as directed and
not abused! (http://www.naturalnews.com/022537_Heath_Ledger_pharmas.html)
The number
of people killed by prescription drugs absolutely dwarfs the number killed by
alleged acts of terrorism (9/11 in particular). And while America has gone
crazy with "security checkpoints," TSA agents reaching down your
pants, nullification of the Bill of Rights (http://www.naturalnews.com/034537_NDAA_Bill_of_Rights_Obama.html)
and other outrageous government encroachments on your freedom to fight the
so-called "war on terror," the government does absolutely nothing to
address the holocaust of prescription drug deaths happening every single day.
Whitney
Houston is just one of countless Americans who are victims of Big Pharma, an
industry that cares far more about corporate profits than it does about the
lives of real people. And today, we have lost yet another iconic American artist
whose life was cut short by addiction, prescription drugs and the entire
"medication culture" that exists in America today.
Whitney
Houston will be missed. May her death serve as an urgent call for ending the
scourge of mind-altering psychotropic drugs and ending the failed "War on
Drugs" that tries to criminalize drug addicts rather than helping them
heal.

Jones' comments on Whitney Houston's death via prescription drugs (he's right
on target, covering the same angles as NaturalNews, on the same day!)
It's time
to start helping drug addicts rather than throwing them behind bars
NaturalNews
calls for the decriminalization of recreational drugs followed by the treatment
of drug addicts and abusers through health-oriented support services (including
nutrition) rather than the criminal justice system.
It is time
to empty the prisons of non-violent drug offenders and compassionately offer
them addiction treatment programs. As written today, our laws would condemn
Whitney Houston as a felony criminal rather than someone who was only guilty of
being caught up in a cycle of substance abuse and prescription drug dependence.
It is time
to stop treating addiction as a criminal offense and start helping people
rather than throwing them behind bars. If society's response to drug addiction
and abuse were based more in health and compassion rather than revenge and
punishment, Whitney Houston might very well still be alive today, along with
countless other victims of the pharmaceutical and recreational drugs
industries.
Even famous
singer Tony Bennett echoes this call. In an urgent and outspoken plea made last
night, Tony Bennett called for the decriminalization of drugs so that drug
addicts can seek help legally and compassionately, without being thrown behind
bars and marginalized by society. "First it was Michael Jackson, then Amy
Winehouse, now, the magnificent Whitney Houston," said Bannett (Hollywood
Reporter). "I'd like every person in this room to campaign to legalize
drugs."

This
doesn't mean that NaturalNews or Tony Bennett supports the recreational use of
such drugs. I am 100% against recreational drug use, and I don't use such drugs
myself. But I also understand that drug use is a behavioral and chemical
addiction, not a criminal act. The solution is found in decriminalizing drugs,
regulating their distribution like alcohol, and offering treatment, addiction
recovery and nutritional consultation programs for those suffering from drug
addiction.
Drug users
are not criminals! They are people who need medical help, counseling, nutrition
and compassion. Calling them "criminals" only becomes a
self-fulfilling prophecy that keeps the police state in power while doing
nothing to end drug addiction.
