No, Todd Bridges. Just no.
Todd, who was on Diff’rent Strokes, called Robin Williams‘ alleged suicide due to asphyxiation a “very selfish act,” just minutes after his death had been reported.
We cannot even begin to fathom how rude it is to pass judgement on Robin so soon after his death. Show some respect for the deceased, Todd.
Here are Todd’s comments he posted on Twitter:
It is a very selfish act you're not thinking about your family your friends or your fans

While we agree with his ideas that mental health should be a national priority, we think some of his words were uncalled for.
