Folks die..

Folks do. But how many die just hours before they are about to reveal facts that could prevent the current president from being reelected?

Two friends younger than I am are widows because of heart problems. Both husbands were diabetic, but it’s the undetected heart problems that killed them. Just like your uncle, they died in just seconds. Both were carrying on conversations and when it was their turn to respond nothing...They were gone.

We should remember the works Breitbart started, honor him by continuing his efforts and contributing to the tip line on his site whenever possible.

RIP AB

If he had hypertrophic cardiomyopathy then he was at risk for instant death most all of his life. As was stated this is fairly common in young athletes. This is different than the more common type, dialated cardiomyopathy, which is usually called heart failure as that is when the heart muscle is failing. One can see this in people when their ankles swell and similar symptoms. That can be managed for a long time but hypertrophic cardiomyopathy can bring instant death to the most seemingly healthy individual. A less common type is restrictive cardiomyopathy and probably the only cure for that is a heart transplant.

I sure haven't seen any blockbuster revelations about The One so whatever new material came into Andrew's possession was either total hype or it's being successfully suppressed. Interesting too that this story came out on a Friday so it can dissipate over the weekend.

That's kind of a moot point, isn't it? What matters is that whoever might have killed him believed that he had devastating information.

In the end, don't we all die of heart attack?

Maybe secondarily a heart attack, provoked by some extenuating circumstances, but “heart attack” can be kinda’ vague, IMHO.

I better have a clean tin foil hat on this one.

“So- God took him, let’s stipulate.

We are all Breitbart.

Take up the baton and carry it, in your neighborhood and in the world!”


This is what we must do. Do it, do it, and then do it again until the dark side is vanquished and the sun shines brightly.

I’ll be the last holdout - I think liberals killed him. Murder by heart attack ... but murder none the less.
