A sad, but unfortunately fitting, end to a sad, troubled life. He had so much potential. My condolences to his family.

Terrible. Just like the principal guy from South Park always says "Drugs are bad. Okay"
RIP.

Probably, no-one wants to get addicted to hard drugs and commit crimes, remember that. Nobody looks ahead a few years and decides thats where they wanna be.

ok, so let's say you're driving down the street and some crack head runs up, throws you out of your car and drives away...
you're telling me you're going to sit back and say 'well, he's made some mistakes in his life, so its ok"
gimme a break.
everyone makes mistakes, not everyone ends up addicted to crack, stealing cars, and overdosing in a jail cell...this result is left for the true fsck ups.

No one is excusing his behavior Anton but it sad anytime someone dies at a young age. Ryan ****ed up a lot in his life but it is real sad that he overdosed.
Ryan was possibly the most skilled MMA fighter out of all the Gracie's he just could never get his head together.

don't get me wrong, i feel for the gracie family, but i have no sympathy for ryan whatsoever.
pretty cowardly act to steal 2 vehicles and overdose in jail and leave behind a great family that loves you.

Why do people always jump to this absolutely retarded "Well if he stole from you/raped your siser/ killed a member of your family etc." argument. I mean, no I would not be thinking "Ah the poor guy." Why? Because I would not be thinking objectively anyway, so my views woud go out the window. Its like saying "Ah you think stealing is wrong eh? Well what if you needed food for your family?" Its the stupidest argument ever.
No after that rant, I don't understand people who don't feel sympathy for other people, no matter what someone has done, I still feel pity if bad things happen to them.

I don't think anyone is defending Ryan Anton. I think people are saying that is sad that he never pulled his life together.
