There are things that are strictly off-limits and that is the bashing of politicians children, no matter their age and that includes the first lady.

VP Biden's loss is indeed very sad and we all here want to pass on our condolences to Mr. Biden and his family.

Lost my mother law to this just a year ago. Understand what they are feeling. I also learned about a few things this family has gone through. As much as I don't care for the ideals that VP Biden does, I would not wish any harm on anyone or death. Prayers to their family.

It doesn't matter what your opinion is of VP Biden and his politics. The fact is, in this case, he is simply a father, mourning the loss of his son. Something no father should have to endure.

All I have are well wishes to his family. No father should have to bury a child and this is the second one he has had to bury. My heart goes out to him.

Its Yin and Yang, because there is another question about VP Biden youngest son being kicked out of the military for drug use. It sad that we are doing this, my respect to the Biden Family their loss.
