Tree of Knowledge 2,236 Posted Monday at 06:31 PM 1 minute ago, The Real timschochet said: Getting back to Nick Reiner: Ive known plenty of addicts in my life and as I’ve mentioned because of my wife I’ve been heavily involved in AA for the last 10 years. I’ve heard terrible stories about people making awful choices, some of which their family members in particular can never forgive. I’m sure almost everyone reading this has had some experience with addicts- it’s all too common in our society. But thankfully I’ve never known any murderers. It seems to me that this goes beyond an “awful choice”, and even beyond addiction related crimes like deaths caused from drunk driving, etc. as terrible as those crimes are, the difference is that what Nick Reiner allegedly did was purposeful. That to me makes it so much worse, an evil act. We can try to understand his act based on addiction but never accept it or condone it. If he’s found guilty he should be either put away for life or executed. Slitting your parents throats seems more calculated and not emotional. There will be a lot to come out on this one. I hope California throws the book at him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MDC 8,082 Posted Monday at 06:34 PM During his interview with Morgan, Reiner had labeled Charlie's tragic demise as an "absolute horror." "I unfortunately saw the video of it," Reiner said further of Charlie's assassination. "It's beyond belief what happened to him." He also stated that what happened to the former TPUSA CEO "should never happen to anybody" regardless of their political leanings. "I don't care what your political beliefs are. That's not acceptable. That's not a solution, so solving problems," the late actor noted, per the HuffPost. He went on to touch on the comments made by Charlie's wife, Erika Kirk, during his memorial service, describing her decision to forgive her husband's killer as admirable. "And I felt like what his wife [Erika] said at the service at the memorial they had was exactly right," Reiner shared. "I'm Jewish, but I believe in the teachings of Jesus, and I believe in 'do unto others,' and I believe in forgiveness, and what she said to me was beautiful. She forgave his assassin. And I think that is admirable." https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/rob-reiners-striking-remarks-charlie-143041920.html 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You should criticize ANY President who acts like a jackass - Clinton should've been removed from office for lying under oath about it (got disbarred for that), but regardless it showed his poor character and it opened him up to blackmail.

Mr Fantasy 150 Posted Monday at 08:10 PM Fock this Quote A day after Rush Limbaugh died, Hollywood filmmaker Rob Reiner attacked the late conservative radio host as a purveyor of disinformation, saying that Americans must protect democracy from others like him. Rob Reiner launched his social media attack on the late Limbaugh by calling him a liar, warning that other conservative media personalities are trying to deny climate change. “To protect our Democracy we must remain vigilant in calling out their big lies. Starting with climate change,” he wrote. Reiner is the latest left-wing Hollywood elite to attack Limbaugh following news of his death yesterday. The 70-year-old conservative radio legend died after a battle with lung cancer, his wife revealed. Stars including Ron Perlman, John Cusack, Rosanna Arquette and celebrity couple Amber Tamblyn and David Cross hurled nasty insults at the late Limbaugh, variously wishing that he rots in hell and spends eternity with the devil.

It then attempts to link Reiner with others who had terrible things to say, “rot in hell”, etc. Except that Reiner didn’t say anything terrible himself. He used the word “liar” and it was specially regarding the issue of climate change. You linked this, apparently, to make yourself feel better about Trump’s horrible response to this murder.

SaintsInDome2006 770 Posted Monday at 09:09 PM How Rob Reiner Tried to Help Troubled Son Accused of His Murder >> Rob Reiner desperately tried to help the troubled son now accused of murdering him and his wife Michele Singer Reiner. Nick Reiner, 32, has been charged with murdering his father, the director, 78, and his mother, Michele Singer Reiner, 68, after they were found at their Los Angeles home. Their throats had been slit. Much attention is now on the relationship between the legendary filmmaker and his son, who has suffered from addiction and mental health issues since he was a teen. Nick co-wrote the 2015 film Being Charlie about their mutual struggles, and Rob directed the film. The younger Reiner has said he experienced bouts of homelessness in three different states—Maine, New Jersey, and Texas—as a teenager. He said he ended up on the street because his parents forced him into rehab centers across the country against his wishes. While promoting their joint project, the elder Reiner said he regretted listening to counselors more than he did to Nick’s own feelings. He said directing Being Charlie, which he said was the “most personal” of his long list of films, made him realize his own shortcomings as a father. “When Nick would tell us that it wasn’t working for him, we wouldn’t listen,” he told the Los Angeles Times. “We were desperate, and because the people had diplomas on their wall, we listened to them when we should have been listening to our son.” Michele felt the same. “We were so influenced by these people,” she told the paper. “They would tell us he’s a liar, that he was trying to manipulate us. And we believed them.”<< Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GobbleDog 1,018 Posted Monday at 09:15 PM Nick Reiner's bail - $4 mil on double-murder by stabbing.?. I know it's California and all, but any bail on those charges seems ridiculous. On the flip side, I remember Michael Jackson's doctor got NO BAIL, because the judge called him "a menace to society." What was he gonna do? Give someone else sleeping narcotics.?. Makes no sense. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Fantasy 150 Posted Monday at 09:26 PM Quote Rob Reiner, his wife Michele, and their son Nick attended Conan O'Brien's Christmas party Saturday night. At the party, Rob and Nick got into a "very loud argument," loud enough for many others to hear ... Reiner family sources tell TMZ. We're told Rob and Michele then left the party. We do not know if Nick left as well. TMZ is the first to report the argument between Rob and Nick before the murders. Our family sources add … Michele had been anguishing to friends over the last few months that she and Rob were at their wits' end over Nick's mental illness and alleged substance abuse issues, and did not know what to do with their son Nick … saying, "We've tried everything." Little Nicky sounded like a real handful. You never know what people are dealing with Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
