Former Fox News commentator Eric Bolling’s son died of an accidental opioid overdose, the anchor announced Thursday.

Bolling wrote in a post on Facebook, “Just received some tragic news from the Coroner in Colorado. Eric Chase’s passing has been ruled an accidental overdose that included opioids. Adrienne and I thank you for your continued prayers and support. We must fight against this national epidemic, too many innocent victims.”

To be old and wise one must first survive being young and stupid.

One thing I have learned in life, junkies die.

Since Our President came out yesterday with this very thing, I would suggest Eric Bolling would be great on this committee...

Oh geesh... another one. Sad. Thanks for the update.

To be old and wise one must first survive being young and stupid.

I had a couple of close calls myself, mostly involving motor vehicles, sundry machinery, and the occasional falling tree. My presence in most of those situations was indeed due to youth and stupidity.

Accidental?? Did he think they were Altoids?

When a person takes a bunch of drugs and an opiod is one of them, it’s not the drug’s fault.

Too soon old, too late smart.

The chlorine in the gene pool.....

Too soon old, too late smart.

I believe there is a line in King Lear by the "fool" which goes something like this: He should not have grown old before he grew wise.

Deaths from many drugs have risen sharply - methamphetamines, cocaine, benzodiazepines too.

It’s not just opioids.

[The benzodiazepine graph is 2/3rds down the page.]

Youth is wasted on the young.

[jmacusa]

Been there, done that. I am grateful to Almighty God that I never killed anyone. Lord knows the shape I was in some times it’s a miracle I didn’t.

[Brian Griffin]

“an accidental overdose that included opioids”

I think that implies other drugs contributed.

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

Accident nothing, this idiot would’ve killed himself sooner or later, it just happened to be sooner.

[longfellowsmuse]

Wasn’t he a fraternity member at The university of Colorado Boulder? Interestingly, a girl who graduated 2 years ago from my children’s catholic high school goes there. She came back to talk to the students about how during her freshmen year she witnessed opioids and lines of cocaine being done at off campus fraternity parties. She was used to and had abused alcohol frequently, but the level of drug use she saw made a very scary impression on her.

...

This has been one of Trump’s issues since the campaign.

I am SO glad the feds are FINALLY getting serious about this. Kudos to President Trump for leadership on this horrendous crisis that Obastard totally ignored:

October 16, 2017: US Prosecutors Announce First-ever Indictments Against Chinese Opioid Manufacturers

October 26, 2017: Pharmaceutical Founder Arrested In Alleged Nationwide Opioid Scheme. John Kapoor, billionaire founder of opioid spray manufacturer Insys Therapeutics, was arrested in Phoenix on Thursday morning. This bastard is responsible for thousands of deaths per year. I'd love nothing more than to watch his punishment be a forced addiction and slow, miserable death.

17,000 people die every year from this poison!

This breaks my heart. After our children made it to their 20’s, my friends and I decided we were lucky/blessed that some of the youthful stupidity didn’t bring harm to them. But most of them were levelheaded, religious and shy. Still blessed. And agree, driving home from some parties when I was in my twenties, I know I had a guardian angel on my shoulder.

It is very common to start on prescription opioids and move on to a much more dangerous cocktail of drugs — whatever is available and cheap.
