7. How will Faux News and/or Rush make this an issue?

If you find an example of right-winger somehow maligning the President or bringing "Hollywood Liberals" into this sad death, post it here tomorrow.

12. Here's a Freeper post;

To: massmike
"suspects the death to be a suicide due to asphyxia."

"Can I Do It Till I Need Glasses?”

Hollywood type, Ill bet that's exactly what he was doing. Autoerotic asphyxia. There have been a number of band members/actors/etc who were just reported as suicide then the truth came out later. What a stupid way to die.

Maybe not exactly what you might be looking for but...

19. Please respect the group parameters.

I know someone else led you into it, but it is still inappropriate. Thanks.

13. Please, I really don't want to see or hear anything they have to say.

To repeat their nonsense would just be disrespectful to Robin Williams.

14. Who gives a flying f*ck

WHAT any of those asshats say, tomorrow or any other time?

[Hekate]

17. For Gods' sake no. This is the BOG. Keep that filth out of here, at least.

We know what they are.

[Chasstev365]

18. RUSH

Robin Williams suicide is because "leftists are never happy." That's right Rush: No Republican has ever attempted suicide or carried out their suicide. His insights are so deep.

21. Again, no more, please. I'm sure everyone wants you to feel welcome here

but we all follow the same set of rules by choice - chaos and repugnance belong outside, thank you.

[IrishAyes]

20. By now you must already know what Pig Boy had to say.

That doesn't mean we want to see his kind of garbage repeated here, though. Please, no more such suggestions. It will only result in strife, and there's more than enough elsewhere.

9. Very nice. n/t
