“I barely knew of him.”
For real? Your circle of information is quite limited then.
Perhaps. He’d write something, and on occasion I’d read it. That’s about the extent of Breitbart in my circle.
I’ve been on FR longer than most, I read it just about daily, I’m a voracious reader elsewhere of articles, I follow the news constantly, I’m retired military, I pastor a mainstream protestant church so keep up with an awful lot, I listen to Rush/Hannity and a few others, and I simply didn’t run across Breitbart that often.
Say what you want, but I don’t see any reason for assassinating him by some “power” group. I can see some leftwing nut murdering him perhaps, but that would be a lone hit job for some obscure reason and not an assassination.
It’s possible that he might have discovered the keys to the universe, and got whacked for figuring it out, but that’s pure tin-foil stuff that would make a great episode of X-Men or Star-Trek.
