26. There will always be "that one" reply, and resulting subthread.

Wish we could all agree to ignore it when it happens.
Condolences to Eric Bolling.

16. We have close friends whose son

committed suicide ten years ago. It altered their entire family. They have never been the same. The hole in their lives will always be there.

I am sorry you went through this terrible thing. Truly sorry.

[democrank]

12. This is just awful.

I feel badly for family and friends. Bolling's only child....so sad.

Losing his job and then his kid dying. A horrible one-two knockout punch. My condolences to him and his wife.

21. I wonder if his death is related to his dad's cock pics.

[njhoneybadger]

27. Can't help but wonder.

It's the Liberals fault they made faux news fire him

[bathroommonkey76]

29. I'm not saying all of that

Imagine his friend's teasing him over that story- Teenager's can be savage in this day and age.

[krispos42]

23. Wow, that's incredibly sad

All those resources, and he couldn't help his son. Devastating. (((

[Willie Pep]

28. Terrible news

Sadly these stories are becoming more common. Suicide rates have been climbing for American teenagers since 2007.

30. Eric Bolling deserved to lose his job; he didnt deserve to lose his son

Nobody does; I speak from experience.

[smirkymonkey]

31. Very sad.

Nobody deserves this.

32. Boiling is receiving ....

A great deal of sympathy for his loss. It's horrible losing a child especially if he committed suicide. To have to bury a child, I can't imagine the pain.

However, I can recall seeing many clips of Boiling expressing little to NO sympathy for the Seth Rich family, because he kept reporting on the Seth Rich story which was a big fat LIE. He even did a segment with fellow slime-ball Newt Gingrich in which they both pretty much signed off on Hillary having a hand in Seth Rich's death. Pretty sure the Rich Family felt horrible as they pleaded almost DAILY with Faux News to please STOP spreading that LIE--because they were grieving for their beloved son. Yet, there sat Hannity, Boiling and several disgusting and craven anchors running with that LIE incessantly night after night. And, now you have imbeciles on the right railing on twitter saying that left wingers murdered Boiling's son.

33. of course

...we're challenged to be better than all of that.

The irony apparently escapes those on the right using this tragedy to push their political points. They really need to dehumanize their opponents in order to maintain their political pique. Maybe that's something important for all of us to recognize in this sad development.

34. Sad.
