causes at the age of 43, and I am all done grieving over it, having learned of it 7 minutes ago.

Was his Occupy rant, where security escorts HIM away, his last public appearance? I think it was.

1. Has anyone heard

if his arrival in Hell will be broadcast?....Must see TV..

4. I heard that Satan has sued to keep him out.

Lucifer is afraid Breitbart will take over.

2. Any civil cases would proceed.

I don't know what the status of her case is but it would go on. The only thing that ends when a defendant dies is criminal cases.

6. Yes, it could proceed against his estate

8. Thank you for that. Ken Lay came to mind, and I am a regular layperson. nt

9. Oh man, don't even get me started about that freakin' asshole!!

Some of my relatives in Texas were devastated financially by Enron's collapse.

3. I Think She Should Drop It

As a favor to Breitbart's family.

5. Why? He did her no favors.

7. Excuse me?

Why should she do any favors for his family?

And don't say because she's the better person, she's always been the better person!

11. Why? nt

[Dawson Leery]

12. She should continue the suit.

Breitbart and his type cannot be allowed to get away with what they do.

10. They might have to make a claim against the estate in probate

to allow the civil case to proceed. It would be granted as a matter of course and the case would proceed. You could get to the source of the funding through discovery.
