David Carradine Death Photo is Pure Crap!

As most everyone knows, a Thai tabloid (Tai Rath) published a photo that is claimed to be David Carradine hanging naked and dead in a hotel closet. Whoever published that photo should meet the same fate! The actions of people never cease to amaze me and yet I am seldom surprised. The huge media clatter – first over the details of Carradine’s death, and now the photo, serve to once more reinforce my disgust with how pusillanimous, sensationalist, and downright ignorant human beings can be.

Celebrities get attention everywhere they go. It’s unavoidable. Carradine was never one to hide to far from the media. As a result, most of us are aware of Mr. Carradine’s “pleasure-seeking” history. I remember once reading – perhaps in the late 70’s – that David Carradine had been on over 500 acid (LSD) trips. The fact that he managed to avoid death, avoid prison, stay so thin and well-preserved is a testament to his genetics and good fortune. I’m sure he had his “downs”, but he certainly had plenty of “highs”! Even so, the man is dead…leave it alone, damn-it!

I also think about the hypocritical nature of people in instances like this. Perhaps that too is unavoidable. Is it like our morbid curiosity as we drive by a bad car accident on the highway? I mean: the gut reaction that is prevalent regarding the details of Carradine’s death are generally not condoned (if it was indeed an accident and not a staged murder), and yet most will want to read the intimate details and will likely search out the controversial photo.

Anyway, my take on this is just let it alone! Have respect and sympathy for his grieving family and loved ones.

I really liked the artical that was writen,about the respect of leaving the dead rest in peace. However I for one can not believe any of this death cover up..Come on are you really that easy lead to thank that just in case somebody is to walk in on us doing this sex act lets do it in the closet!Oh let me do it alone and tie my hands behind my back!Or how about make sure that everyone knows, that I will wait and go to bangkok where those who have threatend me not to ever go here or I would be killed then commit suicide.. .. Get real you really think we would turn our heads on a setup like this..get your stories right and tell the public what really happened is all a cover up because United States was threatend to leave it alone..By Bangkok again..
