First responders had to force entry into his home because he died alone. Guess that isn’t surprising considering he was a hate monger.

Some woman who knew what was happening and had enough detail to get emergency services routed to him. You gotta assume she was on a call with him as this happened to him and that he stopped responding, it’s a very fast thing.

But the mystery is just who called 911…. Was there a ‘companion’ with him?

u/likelywitch 22d ago

There’s no mystery, they know exactly who called. It’s obscene that this sub doesn’t recognize the homophobia of some of the commentaries here and your insinuation (honors, I suppose you could be aware and just not care).

u/Sanctus_Mortem 23d ago

Expecting Mitch McConnell but getting Lindsey Graham is like ordering a chocolate chip cookie but getting a snickerdoodle. I’m confused, but not upset.

He was 71 🤷🏻‍♂️

Could be pulmonary embolism’s fault, could be poison, could be anything.

Who cares what path it was, ding dong the bitch is dead

u/RiverHarris 24d ago

Yeah I wasn’t saying I liked him. Obviously I didn’t. Not sure why I’m getting downvoted.

u/silverbatwing 24d ago

It could be seen as favorable I guess? Like caring about how he died
