Maybe we should put criminals in jail?
uh oh
Why do people automatically start posting cruel and rude comments when someone has died? Kym, can you please delete them?
Kelly, because the commenters would rather think they’re clever than be compassionate
First day on the internet?
Agreed. Deleting is easy.
And it improves the experience for real readers.
Letting this [self-edit] stay up just makes reasonable people leave RHBB with twisted emotions.
It’s a detriment to us all.
Good people can’t focus on good comments, and most threads look like an insider’s view of Alex Jones psychosis.
Good, productive, informative discussions are gone here.
This is willie answering willie!
No it’s not.
WH is not Willie.
Guaranteed.
Can’t read?
It’s very sad when the elderly aren’t safe in their own home.
Not enough details to make any comment except so sorry to the family and friends.
🕯🌳Hey I did offer prayers and condolences. People bash on me all day so sometimes instead of facts I’ll have fun.🐸🌍🖖
I appreciate the positive people that have left a comment, for the few that didn’t you should learn to have respect for a human life weather you knew the person or not, his loss has been deeply felt here in Dallas because he was not only a dad but a grandpa and great grandpa to my father in law my wife and my kids, he sent cards for every celebration (birthdays weddings,mothers day and called every week to check on us, he will be missed by many for the rest of our lives, we will pray for justice hopefully sooner than later 😔
He sounds like he was a warm and loving person. I’m sorry for the loss of someone so important in your life.
Mitch was the nicest boss you could ever work for.
I worked for him and Ann for almost 30 years. I was honored to run their business for them. Never had a cross word with him all that time. He was almost like a father to me.
We live in a sick Fuking world anymore.
I am heartbroken
Defense of human life and the effective tools for that purpose is every American’s birthright.
Choose not to exercise that right and be pray for the criminal inclined. (Not commenting on the unknown circumstances here but he had every right to defend his life with the best tool for the job if he chose).
RIP sir. You are missed.
