9. We need Music!

2. ok everyone

behave yourselves.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

6. STOP RAPING PEOPLE!!!!! nt

[randome]

7. That has to go down as the greatest unhinged rant of the year.

A shame the guy had brain cancer or whatever.

[denverbill]

3. Maybe it was the Rapture?

/sarcasm

[tblue]

41. And he was the only one!

The rest are still waiting....waiting....waiting....and it done happened already.

[loli phabay]

4. kinda tacky, regardless of the guy he had a young family.

[HERVEPA]

33. His wife's choice to marry him, no sympathy for her.

and he destroyed tons of lives. You forget that part. Kids probably better growing up without thatr thing for a father.

[babylonsister]

5. It's already been a year?

Time's going too fast.

[NYC_SKP]

8. Hoping he stays that way.

You never know about Evil.

[MineralMan]

10. And you just resurrected him.

Why do that?

[brewens]

11. Accidentally swallowed a gagball and choked to death. Poor bastard! n/t

[nadinbrzezinski]

12. I do not celebrate the death of a father

Even one I highly disagree with...and lord knows water and oil have more in common than me with Breitbart.

You might want to remember he left behind two young children.

(There are days, and I expect, for sure, for this to be alerted on...it's DU)

[RZM]

17. I don't understand why people can't just say

'I had no love for the guy' and leave it at that (some did say that, of course).

The grave-dancing just looks terrible.

What struck me were the assertions that his children are now 'better off' not being raised by a man with such political beliefs. Where have I heard that kind of thing before?

Oh yeah, now I remember:

19. History is an alien land to most Americans.

[RZM]

24. Problem is, a lot of people arguing that are well aware of the examples I cited

It's no secret that state repression of all kinds breaks up families. It's also not a secret that regimes would justify repressing parents on the grounds that their beliefs/status made them unfit to raise children. And many examples are from infamous RW dictatorships to boot. While this may not be well-known among the general public, it is here.

Of course, I'm only talking about a small number of people who said that. I think most people find such ideas quite troubling.

[Puzzledtraveller]

21. Thanks RZM

18. +1 n/t

[Puzzledtraveller]

20. Ditto that

[datasuspect]

30. too bad their dad was a jagoff

[nadinbrzezinski]

38. And, this speaks more of you than Breitbart at this point

And the OP is in really bad taste...not that I would alert or anything. Not at all. Let it stand for it's ugliness

[Cirque du So-What]

13. As Clarence Darrow said:

All men have an emotion to kill; when they strongly dislike some one they involuntarily wish he was dead. I have never killed any one, but I have read some obituary notices with great satisfaction.

http://www.theatlanticwire.com/national/2011/05/mark-twain-didnt-say-thing-about-obituaries/37279/

I've made the mistake of attributing this quote to Mark Twain as well.

[Greybnk48]

14. To quote Seinfeldt, That's a shame.

[Dreamer Tatum]

15. Classy nt

[Capt. Obvious]

16. He had a BIG HEART ATTACK

If only his "journalistic" websites died with him.

Oh well, I'll take what I can get.

[Tom Ripley]

22. I guess they are wrong about the negative results of excessive cocaine and booze

[jollyreaper2112]

23. heh

If you have nothing nice to say about the guy, don't say anything at all.



long pause.....


So, how 'bout that Dragon launch?

[shireen]

25. Mean

This is one of the meanest cold-hearted posts i've seen, and it's so sad to see others celebrating it.

He was a human being, loved by family and friends. How do you think they'd feel reading your post?

Criticize his public persona and views, but it was just one facet of who he was as a human being. His family and friends saw the whole person, including the good in him. They deserve to grieve in peace without your grave-dancing.

[jeff47]

29. I will extend to him all the kindness he extended to others

There are a lot of people who have suffered and died due to Breitbart's efforts to fuck over the poor and disadvantaged. Yet he never shed a tear for any of them. In fact, he said that he loved it.

As such, the pain of his friends and loved ones does not concern me. The man decided to be evil knowing what it would do to them.

[progressoid]

34. Sorry, I don't think that argument works.

"a human being, loved by family and friends" doesn't negate his awful actions.

There are a lot of people that were loved by family and friends. That doesn't make them good people or deserving respect.

I'm not condoning "grave dancing", but I don't buy into that argument.

[HangOnKids]

37. ^^^^^THIS^^^^^ n/t

[nadinbrzezinski]

46. But the OP *is* grave dancing

And it is ugly.

[Katashi_itto]

26. It's suddenly an even better Friday.... :)

[Hell Hath No Fury]

27. There are certain people I will not mourn the loss of --

He is one of them.

[d_b]

28. seems like only yesterday

[Hubert Flottz]

31. I just wish he could...

drop dead again.

[jsr]

32. So he's a corpse

[Bake]

42. Worm food.

Even that's too good for that bastard.

[Kalidurga]

35. Been a year already...

Well you know what they say about time and flying.

[indepat]

36. Sad how the good die young

"patriot:

[NCTraveler]

39. My thoughts are with his family. What a sad day for them.

His death should have taught most of us a lesson. Life is short. You don't know when the end is. Enjoy life as much as possible and limit personal feelings of hate as much as possible.

[840high]

43. His mother passed

the other day. May they both RIP.

[Bake]

40. Fuck him and his family.

I hope it's extremely hot where he is right now.

Bake

[csziggy]

44. I wish his organization had died and not him

His political apparatus seems as though it will last long after Breitbart's death, I wish it were the other way around. I'd rather have him lived to see his political goals fail. I hope I live that long!

45. That Is Why We Have a Black President

Andrew Breitbart Died And That Is Why We Have a Black President http://fdl.me/Xsj4Wa from @firedoglake #dead #Breitbart

[sigmasix]

47. he is responsible

for the death and detruction of countless poor and disabled Americans. He spent the time he had on this planet hurting and destroying anyone that got in his way by desiminating lies and bigoted, paranoid conspiracys. He spent the last few years of his existence working hard to take medical care from the poor and supporting evil partisan attempts to deny food to poor children. He did all of these things with the full support and encouragement from his family and political friends. While he was busy hurting the poor and causing their death, he was bragging about it for the whole world to see.
He's dead now. The world is a better place because of his absence. The only way breitbart was going to stop personally attacking America and trying to destroy her was through his death. Why should good people be concerned about the feelings of people that supported a man that was actively destroying so many poor peoples' lives and families?
He's dead now, and much like the relatives of Joseph McCarthy, his loved ones should not expect to be protected from the facts of history and his love affair with evil.
