I think there's a difference between making someone a saint and vilifying someone because of their addictions. I would imagine CG's referring to the folks that are saying she doesn't deserve to be mourned because she "brought it on herself."

For two reasons: Still don't know yet the role drug use played in her death, AND such statements show a profound misunderstanding of addiction as an illness.
