Yesterday, the Conservative movement lost one of it's greatest patriots, Andrew Breitbart. He reportedly died of a heart attack in the early hours of March 1st. Breitbart was, quite literally, one of the most outspoken Conservative leaders and exposed numerous scandals and stories that the mainstream media refused to mention. He was 43 years old, and leaves behind a wife and four kids.

This was really saddening news. But whats equally as saddening--and disturbing--is many on the Left's reaction to his death. On Twitter I was really shocked by the cruel and brutal messages people were posting, literally celebrating Breitbart's death. These people really showed their true colors, and ironically, many of them are the sort of people who tell Conservatives to stop the "hate." Check out this article to see some of the "tweets" I'm talking about:

This is truly saddening news, and I hope more Conservatives everywhere continue the fight for truth in a world where it is silenced more and more every day. I know I will!
My thoughts are prayers are with Breitbart's family. To close, here's a quote that shows how passionate Breitbart was about his work:
"I love my job. I love fighting for what I believe in. I love having fun while doing it. I love reporting stories that the Complex refuses to report. I love fighting back, I love finding allies, and—famously—I enjoy making enemies."
