Sadly passed away.

What a sad world we live in when people are respecting the criminal world and normal people struggle to put food on the table...

Sadly passed away.

he passed away and it may be sad for his relitives but Sorry it is not sad for the world in which he did or left anything of any good. Gone and good riddance to bad rubbish

You people make me laugh judge jury and executioner.
Maybe you would like to say that to his family,i can put you in touch if you want?
To Bruce a good family friend,gone but not forgotten.

There is no need to apologize.
But all i done was try to give my respect to a dead man,and i got jumped on and a good man was disrespected.
Some of us have a past we would rather forget,but our past doesn't make us bad people in the present day.

I can't believe what I am reading here. So he did a little time, so he hurt  one or two people for financial gain, so what, he didn't want to work.
He had a great life? Ok I was up in big trees in winter, laying concrete in summer, I also had a great life and could look at myself in the mirror. RIP? RIH, work it out for yourself.
Glad to hear that you approve of selling drugs, that helps me sort out what kind of guy you are. I suppose you did the same kind of thing if you think this is an appropriate way of earning money.

You obviously know nothing about Bruce whatsoever,he did work had several jobs.
As for the GBH got 3 and a half years,and served his time.
As for the drugs yes not something i would assume he was proud about,but coming out of prison after the 25 years of which he served 10 years on a guilty plea,had no source of income and had no choice to make some money what ever way he could.
He received a further 3 years for that and served his time.
To answer your question NO i don't think it's appropriate to sell drugs,but sometimes you may be pushed into a corner,and Bruce would probably be the first to admit that wasn't the best times of his life.
You can assume what you want about me,but you know nothing about me whatsoever,think what you want about me i don't really care.
TO BRUCE REYNOLDS REST IN PEACE,YOU WERE A TRUE GENTLEMAN.

That's terrible language from a man of your age,Bruce would be very upset with you.
The great thing about people like Bruce is they sure know how to earn  .

I have never quite understood the concept of respect for the dead. Why should a person earn more respect merely through the act of dying than he might otherwise have earned had he continued living? It is not as if dying requires some bold, inspiring action that will uplift generations yet unborn. And there is nothing unique about it. It’s been done to death. (NPI) So Bruce (Ulsterman) Reynolds has died. He was a crook. The fact that he was a nice guy who died makes him no more deserving of respect than any other crook who had family and friends. Dr. Fred Shipman was a nice guy, too. Friendly, caring. He loved his patients to death… quite literally.  May we not speak badly of this fiend who prematurely bestowed eternal peace onto hundreds of his patients? And who felt more love and affection from people than Adolf Hitler. Does his death now mandate a moratorium on calling der Fuhrer a son of a bitch.
I figure I have about 10 years left. My reputation while I live can affect the comfort I get in those remaining years so I try to guard it a bit. Occasionally that takes some effort because, as Hamlet said, “I am myself indifferent honest; but yet I could accuse me of such things that it were better my mother had not borne me.” But once I have escaped to that “undiscovered country,” I don’t give two damns if I am the object of universal contempt now and I surely won’t then. Respect for the dead is a concept cherished only by the living, who hope to keep people from speaking contemptuously of them when they are no longer in a position to defend themselves. 
BTW, yesterday was the 124th birthday of Charles Ponzi, Capitalism and Wall Street’s early 20th century love child. Anybody have something respectful to say about him?

[Albert]

Another great man passes away.

R.I.P  HUGO CHAVEZ

[tonypace01]

Now that is a man worth mourning.

Now that is a man worth mourning.

Glad we agree.

This is a good article - I imagine that Albert will know some of the faces...

Not so sadly for some. He was a tyrant and dictator, it is good that he is dead. I'm sure his family is sad, just like Mao, Stalin and Hitlers family was probably sad when they past away. I don't think Chavez was on the level of the previous three, but he was a bad person only interested in his personal enrichment to the tune of a more than a billion USD. He will not be missed.

Most Venezuelans appear to think otherwise.
