Just watch the repercussions of the Tucson shooting

[old_man]

The sheriff down there is blabing all over TV that this was caused by talk radio and it's vitreal treatment of Democrats. Commentators are jumping on the bandwagon. Watch, Obama will use it for an excuse to try and drive through his Fairness Doctrine to put talk radio out of business and start censorship.

I was at that Safeway only about three weeks ago.

Cool story, bro.

Some insight into the mind of this kid: his YouTube channel...

http://www.youtube.com/user/Classitup10

(nice list of *past-tense* favorite books at the bottom of his profile)

 

[XJEEPER]

The Communist Manifesto and Mein Kampf (My Struggle -Adolf Hitler) ..........while I've studied these, I'd never list them as favorites.

Bottom line is, he was mentally unstable and blaming Marx, Hitler, Van Jones, Obama, Piven, Palin, Rush or Beck for his actions is ludicrous.

If he had rammed them with a Prius, would the Socialists in Washington be calling for stricter driving regulations and classify hybrids as assault weapons?

The Democratic Socialists of America's response to this is predictable. Blame it on their enemy, the supporters of the 2nd Amendment and promoters of Freedom. Never hesitate in labeling an isolated incident a crisis, and never let a "crisis" go to waste......... http://socialistparty-usa.org/statements/1911nopoliticalassassinations.html





My prayers go out to the families of those lost in this senseless act of violence.

 

[XJEEPER]

The sheriff is a tool of the Socialist movement in the US. He's using his opinion to pass judgment and override any proof that the gunman murdered people because he listed to talk radio.

He's doing the very thing that he is accusing the Right of doing!!

Politicizing the death of these innocent people, including a 9 yr old girl is shameful.

 

[iwannadie]

I keep seeing news stories about it hyping up the "extended clip" or "high capacity clip".

I'm glad I carry my pistol grocery shopping and it has a high capacity magazine to deal with this kind of idiot if he points a gun at me.

Completely agreed. At this point I can't tell whether I should be more appalled by the actions of the gunman or the subsequent media s***storm plying it to suit their respective editorial stances.

 

[kastein]

The guy seems like a complete lunatic.

Makes me wonder if people who think to themselves "I would not be surprised if this guy shoots up the school" (as many of his classmates apparently did) should report these nutballs... I didn't, though none of them have shot anyone so far. The sad thing is that both this guy and the Virginia Tech guy were well known on their campuses for being mentally disturbed troublemakers.

In any case, this will be used as fuel for second amendment breaching regulations. Sadly mental cases like this and criminals will find ways to hurt people in any free society.

Yeeeea... this video is just all kinds of deranged...

wtf???

 

[Jeepman401]

One thing could have prevented this from happening on the scale it did, and that was someone carrying. End of story.

Due to today's bullshit attitude of being nice to everyone, any investigation into the mental stability of the shooter would be seen as harassment

First, my prayers are with those that died: that poor little girl, the judge, the pastor, etc... and
I hope that Gabrielle Gifford recovers (although, it's a miracle she even made it to the operating
room at all).

Second, if Rush Limbaugh, and Sarah Palin are allowed to speak in a distasteful manor than
people like Sheriff Dupnik should be allowed to rebut their buthead comments.

Third, I really don't want to polarize this issue further, but is the image below normal for an adult
let alone someone eyeing the presidency? Where's the civic responsibility?

Forth, READ, I'm not saying Jared Loughner was directly inspired by right-wing rhetoric. He was
crazy, and crazy people will always find a way to do crazy things. Having said that, it's interesting
to note the right wing's in favor of small government.. and small government results in cuts to
mental health programs.

:roflmao:

That was one of the dumbest thing's I've read in quite a while.

First of all I don't think anyone here is arguing that the sheriff shouldn't be allowed to give his dumbass opinion, I'm certainly not.

And how exactly is that political ad "irresponsible"? Because it has crosshairs?? Give me a break.

And you obviously don't understand the conservative ideology because if you did then you would realize that government size has NOTHING to do with "mental health programs" because conservatives understand that the private sector can provide health care, including mental health care, far better than the government can ever dream of doing.

But way to pass the back and get back with the blame game and try to attribute wholly irrational actions to whatever suits your political favor when 6 people are dead after JUST having said:

I really don't want to polarize this issue further

but...

I'm not saying Jared Loughner was DIRECTLY inspired by right-wing rhetoric

BUT...

it's interesting to note the right wing's in favor of small government.. and small government results in cuts to mental health programs

Congratulations on your nomination.

Having said that, it's interesting to note the right wing's in favor of small government.. and small government results in cuts to Government funded mental health programs.

FIFY^

That's an odd leap in logic to assume that anyone wishing for smaller Gov't will cut mental health programs, but it is a possibility. Life is filled with risk, and sometimes it's worth the risk to find a better/cheaper/fairer "way of doing things."

 

[rweaver138]

Congratulations on your nomination.

lol

 

[iwannadie]

I personally can't stand sarah pallin. If she wants to create an ad with target sights that's up to her. Having something like that doesn't make her responsible for a nut case taking it literal and shooting those people. Although it may not have been the smartest PR move now with what has taken place.

In an effort to link what happened in Tucson to right-wing conservative rhetoric? NOT.

OK, then how about this pic from DLC targeting republicans in 2004?

And these pics from DCCC in Feb of last year, also targeting republicans...

"Where's the civic responsibility?"

Puhh-leeeeeaase, dude.... the double-standard hypocricy of the "left" is both EPIC and MONUMENTAL.


If someone tried releasing a film like this about Obama, they'd probably end up in GITMO...

Its gotten even worse,now some so-called church wants tp protest at the little girls funeral,EVERYONE should step back and take a deep breath and focus on the affected families.Its sad that this has already become news "other than the actual tragedy",there will be plenty of time later to talk about the other issues.
