(Reuters) - Conservative activist Andrew Breitbart died of heart failure with no prescription or illegal drugs in his system, the Los Angeles County Coroner's officials said on Friday.

There was no significant trauma to the body of Breitbart, who died in March at the age of 43, and foul play was not suspected, a coroner's spokesman said in a written statement.

The first “comment” is a preview of how sick these people truly are!

Yes, the man worked to expose corruption in government and that made him heartless.

Liberals are such morons.

So- God took him, let’s stipulate.

We are all Breitbart.

Take up the baton and carry it, in your neighborhood and in the world!

What in the world does “no significant trauma” mean??? No trauma I would understand. Does this mean there was some kind of trauma somewhere? Heart failure means your heart stopped beating. Why? Dying of Natural causes means no one killed him. Hard to fathom a heart just stops beating in a guy who was walking home after a glass of wine at a local pub.

Huh? Have you not heard of myocardial infarction? It’s one of the biggest causes of death.

Let Andrew RIP and let’s carry on his work.

Yes, I have indeed heard of a myocardial infarction aka “heart attack.” If that is what Breitbart died from, then that should have been the cause of death, not “heart failure.”

You really think that if someone bumped off Breitbart by some very sophistocated method, that Breitbart would want everyone to say, Hey, just remember my legacy and carry on the good fight!

Do I have any confidence that his fight will be carried on with the same vigor at Breitbart.com - the jury is still out on that one.

Heart failure is gradual; myocardial infarction is sudden.

It’s sort of strange phrasing - someone dying of heart failure should feel sick enough - very weak, unable to breath - that he would call for help.

A sudden, massive MI - oxygen-starved heart stops in seconds or minutes - is not usually called “heart failure.”

Someone needs to keep a close eye on the coroner and the coroners’ staff life style and spending habits for the next year or so.

foul play was not suspected

And not all government operatives are bumbling amateurs.
