But if you want to talk about celebrity deaths V's strangers deaths and if you want to discuss like with like, if lets say after Amy Winehouse died and her father was planning to sue the off licence where she bought her drink from, then I think people would have been more forth coming with their opinions on who's fault her death was

It isn't a different subject at all... it's this one.

The onus was on the death and the fact some labeled it 'stupid' and him stupid for misunderstanding the dosage.
Regardless of what his parents did subsequently.

So yes I feel that preventable deaths both famous and non famous are entirely comparable in the same context, I don't know why you have a problem with this.

All preventable deaths can be put down to 'stupidity' regardless of who they are and how they occurred.. or none of them.
