Meanwhile, my coworker thinks it's a terrible thing people are "dramatizing" Hoffman's death because "he was a heroin addict" which of course apparently negates all positive contributions Hoffman made and overrides any personal struggles that may have led Hoffman to that point. I guess it's a "We are canonizing this person in front of our kids" sort of viewpoint but come on, no kid is going to be like "This guy died! Therefore, I wanna be like him!"
