The murder of Hollywood Director Rob Reiner and his wife Michelle Singer Reiner by Reiner’s 32-year-old adult son Nick has become another front in the ongoing political war. Nick is a long-time drug addict, in and out of rehab many times, and often homeless on the streets of multiple states. He reportedly trashed his parent’s home at least once in the past, and some reports suggest he was diagnosed with schizophrenia not long before the alleged murders, apparently committed with a knife or other sharp object.
Rob Reiner was perhaps best known for his writing and directing, particularly the classic rock “mockumentary” This is Spinal Tap. He’ll certainly

Does anyone think his obsessive hatred stopped at his front door when he got home? Obama got another lackey killed.

Once again leftist hypocrisy is on full display. Any negative comments about Reiner are treated by the left as blasphemy and insensitive while the nasty things said by Reiner about Trump and his family, and in the aftermath of the Trump assassination attempt are completely forgotten. As poster #1 said, Reiner's hatred didn't end when he reached his front door.

Certainly not a 'he deserved it' post but before the internet when USA Today was trolling the public every day they went on one of their pseudo-moralistic crusades again spanking and child discipline in general.
Their spokesman? Rob Reiner.

Reiner checked himself into a facility after Trump won. That's how bad his TDS was.

The kid was in rehab the first time at 15. How long did his parents ignore, or probably condone, his drug use? You don't become an addict overnight. He was constantly in and out of rehab because he didn't want to be there. His parents allowed their violent, drug-addled son to decide if he wanted treatment. They listened to said violent, drug-addled son over the doctors who warned them that drug addicts are manipulative. They took him to a party to "keep an eye on him" rather than skipping the party.
In short - they wanted kids, but they didn't want to be parents.

No, he was best known for his rabid political meathead idiocy.

RR was sooooo focused upon Putting Trump in Jail, he ignored the single un attempted thing that might have saved his criminal son, his wife and himself...Putting HIM in Jail. 17 trips to rehab, dozens of therapists, psychologists, psychiatrists...Lawyers...Insulating him from the repercussions of his actions and addictions with their wealth and power. Insulating him from REALITY. Longest stretch of sobriety less than six months, while also doped up on prescribed junk. I have been clean/sober over 36 years...a "young man" I knew for 10 of those, that was as bad as Nick, his Parents finally stopped intervening between him and the Law, he did 12 months in prison, has been clean/sober now for 20years...and is married to a bank executive, is a successful real estate investor/rehabber. He says..."When they finally arrested me? They Rescued me". It takes Clean Time to get clean, clean enough to live in Reality...any way to get it is the only thing that works.

I read an article by Rob's daughter Romy. She said that almost from the start, Nick felt his dad didn't love him. From what she described, I think Nick was just different from the other two and Rob, half nuts himself, didn't know how to deal with him. I know he loved him but as a parent, you never know what each child will be like and I promise you, they will all be different. This is just a sad story all around. Rob himself was a little on the nuts side but no parent deserves to be killed like this by their child.

Reiner was politically connected and influential in the entertainment industry. He never focused social media on Trump's attempt to stop fentanyl and other dangerous drugs from flooding the country. Instead, he chose to use his stardom, wealth and influential power as a weapon to promote hate and slander in vicious ways against Trump to destroy him and his presidency. Reiner and is wife were out of control leftist, and his son was raised in hate toward anyone who did not agree with him. Trump's feelings toward Reiner are understandable.

Looking at the several posts, maybe the NR apple didn’t fall far from the RR tree in terms of anger management.

I've never seen This is Spinal Tap, but I'm sure tired of hearing about it.

Ethan Hawke just did a interview with Joe Rogan. He makes the point that "celebrity" is a poison and I agree. If you don't have the maturity or responsibility with a Holly wood career, it can be self-aggrandizing. Rob Reiner reminds me of that very person and along with that, Rob Reiner is now a parent. . .

In addition to his professional achievements, Reiner must be remembered for his out-of-control Trump Derangement Syndrome. He should have checked himself into a clinic.

I don't recall RR expressing any compassion or sympathy for the parents of children killed by fentanyl poisoning, etc. Too busy going off on Trump.

Reiner wallowed in hatred. Back when I was a smoker Reiner ran a successful campaign to punish smokers and extract money "for the kids" none of whom ever saw a dime it funded CA Deep State. He was such a vile communist psycho. See Ya Meathead.
