Linkin Park lead singer, Chester Bennington, has committed suicide.
The 41-year-old was found dead in his home in Palos Verdes near Los Angeles shortly before 9am on Thursday. The Los Angeles County coroner confirmed they were investigating Bennington’s death as an apparent suicide but no additional details were available.
Law enforcement officials say Bennington hanged himself and he was home alone at the time.. He was found upstairs in his home by an employee. The singer had a history of drug and alcohol abuse.
He was married and is survived by his six children. The saddest part is how this will affect his children!
Worry about black people, please… Esau’s got enough people caring and crying for them. They gone be alright… Trust. Their joy is black folk’s misery, so don’t waste your time crying for them.
What a super dumb comment!!! Stop being racist, ppl of all color are the same. The media just portray us different. I just left Palos Verdes and it was quiet as a mouse.
What a super IGNORANT thot! You do not know enough science, history nor ancient text to back up your “ppl of all color are the same” rhetoric. You dumb ass un-edu-MA-cated thot. Why do you think people are phenotypically different??? BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT THE SAME AT THE ATOMIC LEVEL. At the basic levels we are Different, we think, breathe, sport, process and hell even FUCK differently. All the fucking in the world will not deconstruct the distinct lineage, so nice try h0e. At an elemental level we are different and our differences build from there. When more people appreciate and love themselves and their own, the earth is put in order and the nations are collected by their fathers – THEN racism will stop – but it’s going to take more than trying to force and fuck until you blend them into ambiguity.
I own a business and service all colors of ppl in all different areas of California. Ppl all do the same dumb shyt, ppl are the same just different colors and have different ways of handling the same Shyt. Also I used to be a Mortgage UW for the two biggest banks, so I see everybody’s credit, and I can assure you the media is portraying ppl the way they want us to believe and not the truth. I go to ppl houses and seen more Black ppl, Russians, Persians, Africans, and everything else but white ppl in Beverly Hills. When I was underwriting loans blacks and Mexicans had much better credit than white ppl, white ppl just had American Express cards to boast there credit score, But 5 bankruptcies. Black ppl had regular loans that don’t effect there credit score at all and 1 late payment that drop they credit score tremendously. So the point is white ppl credit was bad, they just play the game smarter. Don’t tell me what I know, I know facts and not the dumb shyt you see on TV. I have customers that live in Palos Verdes that are broker than people that live in Compton. The ppl in Compton just don’t know nothing but Compton and think that’s where they gotta stay. Get out and meet ppl and you will see there are more white baby mamas than black. More white remarried couples than black. Just as many white kids that don’t know there Dad, but let the media tell the story and it’s only black ppl going through this. 2 white woman by my house shot dead by white cops, never mad a news paper. But the minute a black man shots white lady all over news or white man shots black man small on news. You fall for the bull shyt and that would make you the real Thot!!
One more thing stop looking at ppl of color until you get to know ppl of every race like I do. Literally I know a lot of ppl, I own a type of business that all kids rich and poor have to come to me. I’m thankful Jesus showed me the truth. And I hope one day he shows you. I like Lincoln Park and I hate to see this happen to this man. It should be clear to you that white ppl have struggles if this white man took his own life. Stop thinking black ppl the only ppl with struggles. Go to the hospital and see if all patients are black. Go to a jail and tell me if all ppl are black. So you need to lear facts, why you trying to tell me about them.
Agreed.
Agreed Lovely Lady. I work in RPV/PV area and it was very quiet. Next door Neighbor sent me a notice announcing his death. Had the chance to see his home when he listed it for sale a few months back- it was a super cool place! He had his kids playing instruments with him as well. So sad to say goodbye to this lost soul. And if anyone must know- yes, I am black. We have hearts too!
I know I was all up and through there. They kept this real hush. I had no idea he even lived up here. Thought he lived in Malibu with the rest of the celebrities.
And I wanted to say a yuuuuuuge Amen to your statement above re: so many affluent people of color in places like Beverly Hills, etc! I work with a variety of people as well in the LA area and I am shocked when I see that certain ones are still ignorant to the fact that people of all types have become successful and are living GOOD. Mindsets limit people and unless they have actually been there and experienced the people they will continue to believe what the media wants them to think- that these affluent neighborhoods are not diverse and that people of color remain poor and uneducated. Thanks so much for shedding true light on this site LovelyLady!
If people of all colors were the same, Africa would be full of Africans, without European-architected war and redrawn lines, the Tasmanian would still be alive and the Native American would be the majority population in the United States of America.
GTFOH with that liberal caucasoid bullshit. The fuck you on…
O Lawd, here it comes, the ‘sacrifice’, ‘the illuminati’, blah, blah, blah, killed him, in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1……Take it awaaaaaaay
Shut Up Fool.
Right Doodle Bug. But you don’t hear all the sacrifice shit here much any more. HSK has evolved from a conspiracy theory/Illuminati/sacrifice site to a pure white hating site.
See anonymous (first post above.)
Yeah like every other site is pure black hate…Shut UP Bitch.
Thank you!
Every site is pure black hate? Really?
Every story that is black related on non-black sites always has some really nasty fucked up comments about blacks, so yes.
And to tell the truth every black site has foul ass black people talking shit about their own, so….
Hush your trap. There’s nothing worse than a caucasoid stealing all the tears in the world for yet ANOTHER focus on themselves.
It’s called passive racism. Look it up.
Maybe he had an incurable disease and didn’t want to deal with it.
He killed himself in the exact same manner as Chris Cornell did on Cornell’s birthday which was the 2 month anniversary of his suicide.
He was the soloist at Chris Cornell’s funeral. They were brothers. He was despondent and could not get out of his own head and realize that his six children need him.
He was quite open about being sexually abused by a male family member as a little boy, so he had been fighting mental issues his whole life since then. I think that CC’s suicide was the straw that broke the camel’s back. But those kids….their lives will never be the same now.
We all been through shit. Do you see mee killing myself? This story piss me tf off. Like stop with the you were molested, many ppl got molested, raped and are they jumping out tha window? You supposed tl give ur kids the life u never had, all he did was give them some of the same traumas he had been inflicted when he was their age. Selfish a-hole. And i grew up listenting to his music like many 90’s babies. You got all these kids, like broo, i lost respect for you. You better hope ur kids dont try to follow after their dummy father & kill themselves too….Then i guess they can just blame the world for a copout like they daddy..sad.
@ Build A Whore, but we don’t see you.
R.I.P Chester I was a huge fan of Linkin park.
Chester had help hanging himself another satanic ritual nobody dies on their best friends birthday unless they were either lovers or under a satanic pact Soundgarden and linkin park both served the satanic agenda
Well Chris, there are quite a few people who think that even though they have 10 kids between them, that they may have been more than friends.
We are all Gods children and we never know the pain and sorrow of another person..
I have empathy for his children to be left fatherless, that’s a horrible feeling for a child.. I hope he finds the peace he was looking for RIP.
Poor albums sales caused this.this is why you don’t base your selfworth on how people perceive you or your job.
