I’m sure obama won’t be claiming the perpetrators of this crime as another of his make believe sons…
It will be interesting to see how the criminally dishonest media will spin this.

These far, far LEFT celebrities enable their children to be criminally dependent on drugs, and live horrible, and worthless lives. Sometimes it comes back to BITE THEM IN THE ASS. No sympathy here. You created it, and you then had to deal with it

Wonder if he wished someone with a gun was there to help.

No loss. Good riddance “meathead”!

The son needed expert medical help.
The parents were wealthy and could have afforded the best care. But that's where ideology gets in the way.
Liberals don't believe in mental health care. Remember back when there were institutions for people who couldn't function in society? Well, our liberal friends over the years have dismantled that system and it's now next to impossible to get someone committed.
A seriously mentally ill family member is the worst case scenario. Having them in the home is really bad, just as the Reiner's found out.

Or a cop.
Mentally unstable son who is a hard core drug addict and some report (possible false rumors) that the son was transitioning. He probably would have preferred a social worker respond.

He was a serious, intractable drug addict, and most of those have co-morbidities: Primary mental illness usually first presenting in adolescence which the kid resorts to drugs as a way to self medicate, but the drugs just mask the underlying illness which then does not get treated. Everybody just focuses on the drug addiction like quitting the drug is all they need to do. But quitting the drug means not just the pain of withdrawal, but the resurgence of the underlying disorder which comes back in spades.
In the meantime the drugs themselves have caused additional brain damage making it even worse to try to get to normal. I feel for any parent whose kid ended up like this. A coworker of mine had such a kid, who ended up dead; causing the coworker grief but relief. It was finally over with, she didn’t have to watch her kid suffer anymore.
But this case screams psychosis exacerbated by drugs enhancing delusions. Often these things are planned as a murder/suicide but they chicken out of the suicide part. The kid should have done like Bruce Rivers’ son Michael, just off himself and leave the parents alone.
I can’t stand Rob Reiner. But these parents did everything they could to try to help their kid. He was of age, we can’t assume they could have involuntarily institutionalized him. They did not deserve what happened. To be betrayed by your adult child is horrible but to be betrayed by them killing you is unimaginable.

I wouldn’t be surprised. It’s the current thing.

This is the crux of the real problem facing lefty America. Their irrational woke convictions make treatment almost impossible. Throw in the new pop culture tranny thing, and you end up with perfectstorm, which led to two terrible deaths and an adult child who will get to spend the next thirty to fifty years locked up for it.

Yes! You simultaneously make everyone mentally ill (put kids on ADHD meds because they can’t sit still in a boring public school class or women are “traumatized” and put on an anti-depressant because a construction worker whistled at them), AND normalize actual mental illness, which “gender dysphoria” is, because it is reality denying and a severe form of unstable identity. The world is upside down. Sick people are normal and normal people are sick.

The son’s been arrested. No. Really? ::) Bail at 4 million? Why any bail at all?!
I’ll give Rob Reiner one thing. He had a long marriage. Exceedingly rare for those types.

Nick Reiner, the 32-year-old son of the late director Rob Reiner, has been arrested in connection with the brutal murder of both of his parents, according to a report published Monday by Page Six.
Nick Reiner, who has a lengthy history of drug addiction, was arrested and is currently being held at the Parker Center Jail in downtown Los Angeles, according to a statement from the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Office. His bail was set at $4 million.
The news broke on Sunday that the Oscar-nominated director, 78 — known for iconic films like “When Harry Met Sally” and “A Few Good Men” and cult classics like “This Is Spinal Tap” and “The Princess Bride” — and his wife of more than 35 years, Michele Singer Reiner, 68, had been found dead in their Brentwood home that afternoon.
Later reports confirmed that the couple was found by their daughter, Romy, 28, who quickly called authorities to the scene and tipped them off that her brother may have been involved. Reiner and his wife had lacerations that an early TMZ report said were “consistent with knife wounds,” but later updates stated that they had both had their “throats slit” by their attacker.
The family released a statement, saying, “It is with profound sorrow that we announce the tragic passing of Michele and Rob Reiner. We are heartbroken by this sudden loss, and we ask for privacy during this unbelievably difficult time.”
Rob and Michele Reiner had three children together since they wed in 1989: Jake, 34; Nick, 32; and Romy, 28.
In the hours that followed the news of their murder, several family friends were seen in the vicinity of their home. Actor and comedian Billy Crystal, a longtime friend of the Reiners, was seen outside the home, as was fellow actor and comedian Larry David.
Actor Cary Elwes, who starred as Westley in “The Princess Bride,” shared a photo of two directors’ chairs — one bearing his name and the other Reiner’s — with the caption, “No words.”
Others noted that Reiner, who was often at odds with conservatives over politics, had been very gracious in the aftermath of the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk.
“Rob Reiner responded with grace and compassion to Charlie’s assassination. This video makes it all the more painful to hear of he and his wife’s tragic end. May God be close to the broken hearted in this terrible story,” TPUSA spokesman Andrew Kolvet posted, sharing video of the moment he’d discussed Kirk’s murder with host Piers Morgan.

Bail has since been revoked.

I can’t believe a judge was so incredibly stupid, insane, corrupt as to set bail for a double murderer.
That just blows my mind that this level of incompetence even exists.
You would think camel-hair was involved.

Nick Reiner tapped heavyweight defense attorney Alan Jackson to represent him on charges related to the horrific murders of his parents. Jackson immediately argued that Reiner, 32, could not make his first scheduled court appearance because he had not been “medically cleared.”

Alan Jackson? Really? I don't care for his music.

Or a cop.
I'd rather have the gun.

When a liberal hate attacks conservatives, it is ignored and often celebrated.
When a conservative speaks out the bitching is epic.
If not for double standards, liberals would have no standards at all.

Where I live, most, if not all, cops have guns. And clubs. And Tasers. And (usually) the skill to use them effectively.

I have more training and proven marksmanship than most cops
I've shot with many of them, at my gun club, and not impressed with most. I'll take a trained armed Citizen over a cop any day.

I'd probably take you over a cop any day too. But not the average armed citizen.
But Rush had a good point.
My point was only that these f*king liberals that want to "defund the police" might feel differently if their life was in danger and a cop was there to save them.

Can’t remember where I heard it but somebody said they interviewed blacks in the blue shit holes and they want the police back. THEY are by far the biggest victims of the defund police insanity. They want their communities protected like any sane person.
However you will not hear this from the media or the Democrats.

As a former fed, the majority of cops only shoot a few times a year on qual days.

A lot of the people at our range were involved in competitive pistol shooting and these people are very well trained and “current” (to borrow pilot jargon). The odd cop that came in was terrible by comparison, but at least he was trying. It’s scary that some don’t even bother to do that.
Hey, was the female SS agent in Butler that fumbled so badly just getting her piece back into the holster that badly out of practice? Or was she simply panicked and overstressed? A feature of testosterone is you men have an ability to set aside emotion so you can function in times of crisis. Or at least it is easier for you to develop that ability as you mature. Estrogen soaked people lack that innate advantage and must work much harder to develop it. This is why women in combat, police or bodyguard jobs is a terrible idea.
ON AVERAGE. I don’t want to hear about the exceptions at the tails of the bell curves. I’d take my 4’10”, 90 pound female karate instructor as a bodyguard over just about any man, but then she was a lesbian.
Anyhoo, if you are going to carry guns for self defense, it’s obviously a great idea to be well trained and practiced. Unfortunately this will work against you at your trial when you’re charged with murdering the criminal scum trying to rape and rob you or the civil suit brought by his (grieving *ahem* gold digging) family because he was going to be a brain surgeon. You were “looking for trouble” or some shit and you being well trained is proof!

I’ve read a couple articles where those in shitholes are welcoming the additional forces President Trump placed there, like the National Guard. DC was one of them, LA another I think.

Interesting plot twist. The connection to Conan O’Brien, lol.
Is it just me, or does that guy have crazy eyes?

The picture certainly looks like crazy eyes, but most media outlets have a lot of practice picking out pictures that are kind to their favorites and awful to their "enemies". You've seen the pics of Trump they choose to post. Not flattering.
