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.

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.

We are supposed to die before our children. Having it reversed is one of the worst feelings in the world.

And Beau Biden served (in Iraq). Much respect and sorrow. Politics always aside in times such as this.

MAJ Biden fought courageously for a long time.
It is up to us to carry on without one of our own.

Thoughts and prayers to the Biden family.

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.
