Anti-Establishment icon gained fame with his ‘Filthy Words’ routine
LOS ANGELES - Comedian George Carlin, a counter-culture hero famed for his routines about drugs and dirty words, died of heart failure at a Los Angeles-area hospital Sunday, a spokesman said. He was was 71.
Carlin, who had a history of heart problems, died at St. John's Health Center in Santa Monica about 6 p.m. PT after being admitted earlier in the afternoon for chest pains, spokesman Jeff Abraham told Reuters.
Known for his edgy, provocative material, Carlin achieved status as an anti-Establishment icon in the 1970s with stand-up bits full of drug references and a routine about seven dirty words you could not say on television. A regulatory battle over a radio broadcast of his "Filthy Words" routine ultimately reached the U.S. Supreme Court.
He will not be forgotten, at least not by this pothead

I don't think I even laughed at any of his stuff...ever...but It still sad to hear of his passing. While I didn't find him one bit funny, I respect what he stood for and his movement. RIP .

No kidding....there was a time I didn't toke for about 2 years because I thought I shouldn't....one night I watched George and he was going on about how weed should be legal, the more I watched, the more I realized, WHATS THE FUCKIN PROBLEM? lol
The man made his point, he was funny, if you didn't think he was funny, you need to smoke more.
