not all socialist are left wingers...the nationalsozialismus party for example was not so liberal, the real issue is that people can call themselves, or anyone, else whatever they want but that doesn't make it so...loughner was quickly associated with the tea party but he more appropriately would be associated with john hinckley

Why is everyone trying to pigeon-hole this guy into one group or another? Is it so you can accuse that entire group of being murderous whackjobs also? That doesn't make any sense.

So what is the point of this argument? :dunno:

Why were teabaggers screaming "socialist", "un-American", "where's the birth certificate", et al?
 
You're not exactly spreading peace and love yourself.

Judging the whole based on the actions of a few is small-minded, unfair, and illogical.

He's a ********. Which makes him... a ********. Glenn Beck is not a ********. So what does he have to do with this?

Do you blame violent video games and explicit music for Columbine?

You're right, it is small minded, illogical, and unfair and so is the vitriol I mentioned above. The teabaggers/conservatives/rightwingers, whatever they want to call themselves have been doing it unchecked for years. Hey, it won them the mid-terms so why should they stop and what incentive does it give democrats not to return fire?
 

The "Quitter" tiara (or whatever they're called) on Miss Wasilla is priceless! (Now I just have to tie a string to my finger that says 'don't forget to rep..don't forget to rep...):clap::1orglaugh

Yeah, I chose my words poorly. Good thing I don't have the sort of stature the RNC Chairman enjoys.

"Feingold had mentioned that he thought that it would be good if we captured Obama in the battlefield setting and that he suffered the quote-unquote ultimate punishment there," Priebus told reporters while attempting to explain that Sen. Feingold (D-Wis.) was "out of the mainstream" because of his opposition to using capital punishment -- even on Osama bin Laden -- as a tool of the American criminal justice system.

"I find this point that he's made to be completely disgusting. I think it's offensive to the people of Wisconsin, I hope he has an explanation as to why he thinks Obama ought not to be executed and why he thinks we ought to bring Osama bin Laden to the United States that he should be captured alive and actually have a trial," Priebus said later.

Probed by reporters on how Republican Senate candidate Ron Johnson would feel on these issues, Priebus surmised that he would also favor the execution of "Obama."
 
Some lefties want to believe so badly that this guy was something he never was...........that being a right wing NRA Rush, Hannity, Palin lover.

I think the left needs a hobby to occupy their free time.
 
Shooting survivor threatens a Tea Party leader

'You're dead': Arizona shooting victim sectioned after 'death threat' against Tea Party leader


A victim of last week's Arizona shooting rampage has been arrested and sectioned after threatening a Tea Party leader, police said.

James Eric Fuller, 63, who was shot in the knee during the massacre on January 8, was attending the taping of a television show featuring Trent Humphries, leader of the conservative Tea Party political movement in Tucson.

The show was to feature a town hall meeting organised for the ABC News special program on the aftermath of the shootings.

Fuller was in the front row and apparently became upset when Humphries suggested that any conversations about *** control should be delayed until all the dead were buried, KGUN-TV in Tucson reported.

Fuller stood, turned and snapped a picture of Humphries, said Pima County Sheriff's Department spokesman Jason Ogan.

'Then he yelled at him and said, 'You're dead,'' Mr Ogan said.

It is not clear what Fuller's aim was, but he may have been attempting to make a point about *** control - using his camera in lieu of a *** to demonstrate how quickly firearms can ****.

Deputies arrested Fuller on charges of disorderly conduct and making a threat.

After consulting with a doctor, deputies committed Fuller to a mental institution to be evaluated.

The charges will be filed with the Pima County Attorney's Office, Mr Ogan said.

Fuller was one of 13 people injured when a gunman opened fire during a gathering of constituents of U.S. congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords.

Six people died, including a federal judge and a 9-year-old girl, and the Democratic congresswoman remains in a Tucson hospital.

But her condition was upgraded today from critical to a serious condition after doctors determined that there were no complications from having her ventilator removed a day earlier.

In a statement released this afternoon, Tucson's University Medical Center reported that Mrs Giffords 'continues to do well. She is breathing on her own. Yesterday's procedures were successful and uneventful.'

A 22-year-old college dropout, Jared Lee Loughner, was arrested for the shootings. He is charged with five federal counts, including the ****** of a federal judge and the attempted assassination of Giffords.

The rampage sparked a national debate about whether the vitriolic tone of partisan politics in the United States in recent years had contributed to the suspect's motivations.

The Tea Party - and Sarah Palin in particular - has become a lightning rod for a political backlash over the shootings.

Death threats against Mrs Palin have also spiked in the **** of the ******, an aide said earlier this week.

Fuller described the shootings as 'a bad crime drama' in an interview on CBS' The Early Show.

He said he felt a bullet that hit his knee but didn't know he had also been struck in the back.

Fuller, a naval air veteran, drove himself to Northwest Hospital after being shot, according to the Arizona Daily Star. He was later taken to University Medical Center where he was released two days later.

The show was videotaped at St. Odilia's Catholic Church in Tucson. Victims, witnesses, emergency responders and some of those hailed as heroes after the shooting discussed the tragedy.

The special will air Sunday on This Week with Christiane Amanpour.

Nah that's just someone trying to make a political point. His actions were based on psychosis.


It seems in Trident's world, being a white anglo western type excludes one from the possibility of being motivated by an idealogy. That only applies to ethnic folk, muslims etc.


WASP exceptionalism ftw



Someone with a sign at a protest excercising his free speech. Are you attempting to classify that as some kind of criminal act?

Not to mention the fact that this is the internet, and those signs could easily be photoshopped.


some guy who wanted to **** Bush as well as Obama was a lefty? Logic fail.



Now Al-Qaeda are lefties. Hark- the sound of the goal posts shifting.



More of the first one.

And on a related note, you do realize your country hung people for war crimes (like the ones Bush committed) as per the Nuremberg standard, don't you? Whether or not one agrees with it or objects to it, by America's own standards the death penalty would have been appropriate for such a crime, so what those people are calling for is no way out of line with US policy.




nah.



Emcee thinks I'm a WASP!:1orglaugh

I'm Slavic heritage, you know the Germans consider us ubermensch.
 
Yeah, I chose my words poorly. Good thing I don't have the sort of stature the RNC Chairman enjoys.

So you can see how you're no different or better than them.

People like Bill Maher never spew hatred and anger. I'm trying to remember, wasn't he the one who said he's happy about the war because it's all about a bunch of religious people ******* each other?
