Rhetorical utterings from persons who never even knew the deceased are really vile hypocritical and ingratiating nauseating opportunistic self centred actually parasitical vomit.
Nothing more sickening than hearing political figures, piggy backing on the coffins of others.

A ONE pound SPIFF the size of a COMA everyday=DOA
WEED is not a cure all and unless there is moderation and self control than there will be DEATH and damages to the lungs and so on
Pushin dope is still juist pushin dope nothin cool at all and early deaths from the NOT so cool pushers BUT if you got the dreads&SPIFFs you are the DOG MAN!& A PIMPLE on the but of life
Happens every day. So what is the significance here?
BIFFIN a ONE POUND SPIFF everyday into a COMA PIMP/lee tass HO HO land will do that it seems
I guess smoking a cone the size of Cincinnati every day doesn’t reverse being fully vaccinated with the clot shot.
(aka) Jabracadabra..
Uh-huh
good news the rope head is to ugly to live any way. but gorgeous white girls would drool over that primate
Do your homework, BEFORE lighting a fatty.
Ashes to Ashes
Dust to Dust
If Covid Doesn’t Get You
The Clot Shot Must
I’m against the clot shots as much as anyone, but where in the article does it say he was fully jabbed? And why does the title of the article mentions heart attack, but the article says he died of asthma?
