1. didn't look

like the picture of health. guessing 350 to 400 lbs if he is over 6 foot tall. Should have been more careful but still sad.

Trump contributing to the murder of his supporters

2. I don't feel the need to mock, or sneer. I want all these last words to be a commercial.

I want them to make others think.

Reality. Trump and the Republicans have the blood on their hands for this mans death, for the 30 year old that said he made a mistake. They minimized the risk, the harm and death. They fed into this mans belief. They have the responsibility to lead and they led him and others to death.

I am not going after this man, his loss of life at such a young age.

I point the finger directly at Trump and Republicans.

We need to make ads, with last words so others can think twice.

3. Yup

I sincerely hope Trump gets it because that would finally wake his cult members up.

5. And they made it us against them.

Once you choose a side changing your mind is like a betrayal of your whole belief system.

11. Right.

10. I remember anti-smoking commercials on TV like that

A celebrity would warn people about the dangers of smoking. By the time the commercial had aired the celebrity had already died of lung cancer, so you had a dead man telling you to quit smoking.

4. Like he said he made it this far. Wonder what military gear he refused to wear in his

2 tours . Bold way to live but unfortunately easier to die
Hope he didn’t take it in to the VA Hospital or anything
A reckless attitude, this was as far as he gets

6. The friend's comment is part of the problem. He says:

“We should still be compassionate whether we agree with someone’s beliefs or not."

This isn't a matter of beliefs.

This is a matter of facts.

The guy was delusional.

If the friend said, "We should be compassionate whether the guy is delusional or not, " I would agree with him.

But let's call it what it is.

8. +1

When your beliefs kill the innocent I lose compassion.

7. Apparently he learned nothing on his deathbed.

Per the article: His last post lashed out at "judgmental" people.

Hello?

Who was doing the self-righteous judging about wearing face masks?
