Kurt Cobain MURDERED?????

There are conspiracy theories surrounding every dead rock star. I've seen all the documentaries mentioned, too. As a layperson, I can't judge whether there's any truth to these claims. If there is, then of course I'm all for holding the person responsible accountable.

I'm grateful that I had the opportunity to not only meet Kurt personally but also spend some time with him. He was a very likeable person with a great sense of humor.
 
It's hilarious how a couble of people have mentioned "oh the guy that wrote sad depressing songs about suicide etc... drug addict, etc, killed himself, wow big surprise." It seems they think that they've got it all figured out but if you were gonna kill a guy that was like that, wouldn't making it look like a suicide BE the best way to kill them? I know you guys thought that was a big gotcha and you clearly solved the case but you obviously aren't thinking anything through with that low effort conjecture, just sayin. Not saying he was murdered or it was a suicide, just had to get that out of the way since it was so obvious and not a single person had mentioned it yet.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. No one is trying for a "big gotcha" here. All logic and reason points to suicide. Could he have been murdered? Sure. But as of now it's nothing more than a conspiracy theory.

You miss the point

No one mentioned it because it is self-evident. It's not some great insight only you have. It's also the least likely explanation given the evidence.

Never said it was some magical insight I had yet no one had mentioned the obvious so I did since the people giving that explanation were so confident in their assertions or at least appeared to be. Plus, no it isn't the least likely explanation given the evidence in my opinion. I mean some of the "evidence" was very out of place considering the inebriation he was experiencing with how things were laid out so perfectly and in place right in front of him. Pictures, the letter, etc.... sure, pointing the shotgun at your face and pulling the trigger might have been possible, but there was definitely some things that were a bit odd. Again, I don't know which is true, I was just pointing out that NOBODY does yet people were explaining it away with his current and chronic conditions at the time such as addiction, etc....

Yet "None of those closest to him think it was anything else.". Do you know everyone that was closest to him AND do you REALLY know that "they" all thought it was a suicide? You sounded pretty confident to me, again... just sayin'. No one knows anything and people that act like they do irk me a bit so I mentioned it, no hate or anything, you just sounded like you had it all figured out in your previous post.
