It appears the tactless question about the drug overdose was removed.

Maybe there wasn't any overdose? Or maybe a person (regardless of profession) taking a few too many pills in the privacy of their bathroom isn't really anyone's business.

Hardly tactless. If you found that offensive then you must despise any form of news. And, if that's the case, why are you on this 'site?
I'm hacked at the morons at TD who removed it. It's amazing what those no-brains will publish themselves when compared with that which they censure and censor.

Yes, don't pass out I just said that! My prayers go out to the family regardless -- this doctor and the one you are so interested in.

Amen, Chick!
It appears somebody's thinking with their forum nickname again.

It amazes me that know one was offended when KS asked who committed suicide by jumping off a Wilson Dam. What's the difference?

FNM, good to see you back..

GoNads -- you and I have agreed on a lot of things on here, but your post was inappropriate. The difference was KS wrote a comment about hearing it from a police officer and just didn't know who it was and what not -- she didn't say the guy "OD'd" and then give details about him that would allow you to single him out (i.e. dentist/wife is a ...) -- She asked it one time and that was it -- if they had removed the post I would dare to say that she would not have posted 2 more threads about the same subject.
You appear to be digging for dirt to talk bad about a man -- if you don't know if you are hearing hearsay -- ask your friend and confirm it with someone PRIVATELY -- not on a public forum. KS had on good word that "someone had jumped" but she didn't attempt to run someone through the mud. She actually commented about feeling sorry for the family if the story was true.
Your tactfulness is the difference. You could have inquired quietly about it without giving as many details as you did. You appeared to be wanting to slam the "doctor" that "od'd" and that was the impression I got, so I'm sure that is the same impression the TD mods got.

I know nothing about the situation in question, but I do know the TD reported on the suicide of a local woman about two or three years ago. When questioned about it, they stated the suicide was on public property and therefore newsworthy.

That should be covered by HIPPA. At least until or if he died.

My thoughts...If you do not have nothing nice to say about a person then don't say anything at all. especially when they are dead.
