I never projected my values onto those individuals. This is about a celebrity suicide. This isn't some poor soul whose mind never could deal with life. He was successful enough to have kids. He's a coward for killing himself. If that sound insensitive, the GOOD. I don't care if this offends Bourdain...he's dead. We need less sensitivity and more honesty in our culture. He just condemned his kids to at least as much pain as he was in. What a loser.

You ere assuming that he made a rational decision for purely selfish reasons. One aspect of deep depression, however, is that the person in that state has often lost contact with reality.

I think you are the coward. A coward that is too afraid to admit that others may suffer pain the depths of which you cannot even fathom and too confused and disoriented to know the full extent of their actions or how to prevent them. You think everyone must be just like you, and the idea that the world is not so clear-cut and simple is just too scary for your little mind to accept. So, you right off anyone that doesn't fit your values and world view, and you live your cowardly life feeling like you know it all.

You don't.

Religion is BS. The world is overpopulated. Suicide is becoming more acceptable for the terminally ill and elderly. I agree that it's not a good option for temporary depression but it's their choice as an adult.

or i found out some nasty information on some people and decided to report on it in a tell all.

nasty information provided by elon musk and the billionaire boys club.

elon musk is in the cross hairs of the suicide squad.

musk is now at war full on.

Bourdain was a racist. Look it up. Oh, a politically correct racist, all the SJW types would agree with Bourdain's views. Views which he didn't see as applying to his ilk.

What I can't understand is that Anthony saw and experienced such a diverse part of the world. He saw the struggles and the unity of humankind. He emphasized this in his shows. He saw hope in peoples who from anyone else's standpoint would see no hope and he made it a point to show this. I just cannot understand how a man who saw almost everything from the poor to the hope where there is no hope, the history, and the communities of the positives of the world do such a thing to himself. I don't know if mental illness is that far from understanding, but my hope is that this wasn't intentional doing unto himself, but maybe an addiction to something that brought him to the edge of his decision.

The two deaths both have connections to Clinton.

Kate Spade worked for the Clinton Foundation.

A month ago Bourdain tweeted this ominous foreshadowing: "... and I am in no way a HRC fan. I've been on the receiving end of her operatives' wrath. And it aint fun."

This after Bourdain exposed Clinton family friend / donor and #MeToo captain, Harvery Weinstein.. who hired Mossad to try to help him cover up his growing scandal, which failed.

Why would two very successful people still in their prime kill themselves? And why are both connected to the Clinton's?

One thing is certain, if you voted for Trump or Clinton, you are an utter douche bag and misogynist. The Trumps and the Clintons are family friends in real life..... you know, YOUR people....

Police Departments tend to want easy quick conclusions. I am not saying the Paris police are wrong. I'd like to know that a team of experienced private investigators are taking a look at this death. Life insurance companies hate paying death benefits. Did Bourdain have a life insurance policy?

Yeah quote some statistics to make it all better. The facts on the ground are that these people are most trusted in society which empowers them to do more harm with little boys than they could ever get away with normally. And when the powers in church just shuffle them around to only cause even more harm, in order to avoid the embarrassment of dealing with these sick "basterds" publicly just casts a dark cloud on the instition as being nothing more than a farce. But keep quoting the averages. I am sure it makes it all better for the hurt and harm to the little kids affected.

I find it strange that people can't seem to comprehend that money and power do not make one happy. "If you worship money and things, if they are where you tap real meaning in life, then you will never have enough. Never feel you have enough.

Say what? I don't know what planet you're on but here on Earth MONEY & POWER is everything!

☝️ Money can buy you all kinds of material things as well as respect, prestige, power, fame, friends and the best looking companions/spouses. All this equals to mega-happiness! Look at all the super wealthy in this country, e.g., Gates, Buffet, T. Boone Pickens, Jerry Jones, etc. - happy as lark these guys are. Even mega-millionaire Joel Osteen is buried in happiness...literally! And Trump looks the happiest of them all - Billions of dollars, all the material things one could dream of, a very hot wife...and now he's KING of the LAND. Wow...just wow!...look what money did for him! (doesn't he look happy & smug in White House?).

Go to the low/low-middle income areas of the country. Mingle with the people there and see what the consequences are of not being wealthy are. Frustration, anger, hatred, envy, despair, alcohol & drug abuse, suicides...unhappiness! That's why the super wealthy refer to us as "useless eaters."

Take home point for all to remember: Money isn't everything...it's the ONLY thing! $$$$

You must be a Catholic Priest. While you are bragging: 1) Catholics committed Genocide versus a few million Muslims during Crusades for sport. 2) Imprisoned, murdered and exiled thousands of Jews during Inquisition. 3) Hide and sheltered high ranking Nazis from mid-1940s. 4) Used alter boys as sex toys.

I see her often during my morning runs.

She is a very nice lady.

You and Mudhen apparently don’t like it very much when facts (those stubborn things) undercut your prejudices and the myths that you use to support them. If you want to hold on to your belief that crimes of pedophilia occur more often within the Catholic Church than other segments of society or society at large, go right ahead. It doesn’t change the fact that of all children who have been sexually abused, only a tiny fraction were abused by a priest. So I guess all those other victims don’t count for very much, correct?

Now if you actually want to take the time to read and learn a little history about the medieval period, perhaps we could have a meaningful discussion about all of that some time. But right now it would be a waste of time

While you’re at it, why don’t you why don’t you hit me with the “fact” that Pius XII collaborated with Hitler to wipe out the Jews. That’s one of the favorites of your type of armchair historian who believes that truth is whatever serves your purpose. It’s not like I would be able to easily shoot that one down, is it?

Dollars to doughnuts, the autopsy will reveal that he was drunk and high at the time he checked out.

He also had to be on a few other things in the anti-aging arena, based on recent pics where suddenly he has huge veins in his arms and 8-pack abs.

Why are you bothering? This board doesn't do common sense.

End Times are near. Prepare yourselves.

What about chronic depression?
