Gunman opens fire in Tennessee church, 2 killed

Living, breathing right-wing stereotype kills 2 Unitarians

There's plenty of chatter here about blacks stealing jobs via affirmative action and the illegal aliens beaming our jobs up, but I've never heard about teh gays doing it.

But aside from the tragedy of yet ANOTHER public shooting rampage (pawn store purchase a month ago!), it cracks me up what a stereotype come to life this dude is. A right-wing SUV driver/owner who blamed gays and liberals for his problems and went to the local Unitarian church with a shotgun in a guitar case to get his version of Charles Bronson justice.

I was also amused that the hero guy here - who apparently took a shot to save others - was described as a "refrigerator with a head" - :1orglaugh

Your thoughts???
 
Stereotypes ...

And such return stereotypes are also part of the problem. ;)

That's why some of us call your type "bleeding heart liberals."
You take the worst you can find and apply it to everyone who disagrees with you.

Actually in many other countries, openly proclaimed gay or "closet" gays do very well in their career and professions.
 
It is sad as our economy continues to sink.

A company near by starts the 4-day work rule and shuts down Friday shift and moves the operation to the Main Plant to save money.

We will continue to see this kind of violence as long as companies just fire people and lay people off without a social network to protect workers' right.

I hope other companies will learn from this incident and not use brutal plant closing tactics to fire employees. It will result in more people to get killed.

GM will continue to cut back as well as Ford and Chryler and hope no one gets killed.

GM lays out plans for buyout and offers cash and car/truck vouchers for potential retirees and employees to be laid off in next 12-18 months. But so many companies just shut the plants down and not even pay workers any severance pay or even the last paycheck and leave town.




General Motors Corp. will cut production by another 117,000 vehicles, citing continued weakness in consumer demand for pickup trucks and sport utility vehicles.

GM spokesman Tony Sapienza said today the Detroit-based automaker will achieve the cuts by eliminating one shift each at its Moraine, Ohio, and Shreveport, La., plants.

Most of the cuts will affect production of trucks and sport utility vehicles.

The Moraine plant makes the Chevrolet TrailBlazer, GMC Envoy, Buick Ranier, Isuzu Ascender, Saab 9-7x midsize SUVs, while the Shreveport plant currently produces the GMC Canyon, Chevrolet Colorado and Hummer H3.

The cuts bring GM's total production cuts to just under the 300,000 units company officials had hoped to cut this year, Sapienza said.

GM also is looking at the possibility of idling production at other truck and SUV plants later this year to further align its offerings with consumer demand, he said.

GM's U.S. sales were down about 16 per cent for the first half of this year, largely as a result of a plunge in truck sales, and it's not the only automaker facing lower demand.

Japanese rival Toyota Motor Corp., which outsold GM by 277,532 vehicles worldwide in the first six months of this year, cut its global sales forecast earlier today by 350,000 vehicles to 9.5 million, blaming sluggish North American sales.

Toyota also is shifting production from SUVs and trucks to smaller models. It said earlier this month that it plans to shut down truck and SUV production at its U.S. plants for three months starting in August, and it will start building the Prius hybrid in the U.S. for the first time in 2010.

The guy who did this sounds like one of those people Obama was talking about.Angry and bitter about some of the changes he percieves to be taking place namely desegragation and gay rights and is clinging to his guns and god.


Obama is a marionette, an appeaser, a defeatist, the wrong man for the job, isn't qualified, is a creation of (you figure it out), has no fresh ideas, isn't going to reinvigorate the economy, has personal ambitions, always has a grievance to address :thefinger , says little in the form of being complimentary toward the United States, generally wants the weak and feeble masses to follow him, and as Rev. Campbell of Harlem says : "is a long legged mac daddy" :glugglug:

And for good measure . . he's a downright MARXIST. IMO.

*note to uninitiated - I'm generally unimpressed by any politician, as the good one's are as scarce as hens teeth.

Tubular was right, it was motivated by some sort of sick hatred for liberals.

"It appears that what brought him to this horrible event was his lack of being able to obtain a job, his frustration over that, and his stated hatred for the liberal movement," Chief Owen said.

"It appears that the church had received some publicity in the recent past regarding its liberal stance on things and that is at least one of the issues we believe caused that church to be selected."

^I knew it. Right-wing religious delusion strikes again (this time against other religous people).

When are people gonna wake the fuck up and realize that this imaginary friend worship is :bs:?

And when are "bleeding heart liberal" types with attitudes like this going to realize their attitude is no different?
Broadly painting everyone that disagrees with you as being of the same type as the worst you can find is what starts this in the first place.

Likewise.

Not everyone who seeks God has these attitudes and narrowminded views.
In fact, many people I know who seek God actually have a much broader view of the world than what you have shown.

Consider what judgement does to all of us.

Funny how you accuse me of "Broadly painting everyone" (which I wasn't) and yet you do exactly that by using that tired old "bleeding heart liberal" line. Just a little hypocritical.

Also, you told me to "Consider what judgement does to all of us". I'm not quite sure what you mean. Whos judgement? And what does this "judgement" do to "all of us"??????

The left uses that one all of the time when it suits their purposes.
Are some of you guy's suggesting that people who happen to own firearms are exempt from mental illness ? Why . . . thank you ! :) :dunno:

Personally I didn't know so-called "bleeding heart liberals" meant that at all.I thought it was just a term used by some to say they felt some people empathized to much with the poor and other what are known as oppressed groups.You know the idea they are just a bunch of overly soft people whose heart bleeds for those dummies who choose to be poor and born in ghettos or appalachia.The bleeding hearts I always though for sure were leftys but not aggressive ones,they love everybody.Haven't really seen any leftys lately start popping rounds off and taking out people they disagree with.But maybe I am un-informed?:dunno:
 
Maybe the guy was "mentally ill" :dunno:

but I guess that doesn't fit in with the Marxist agenda.

Ha ha


I'm sure thats to be determined ,if he is ill then by all means its a factor to be considered in his final dis-position.

After all, we're all "mentally ill" when convenient.

Of course he is "mentally ill". He's a religious right-winger. Therefore, he would have to be mentally ill.

I think this is what Prof was getting at by saying "Broadly painting all those who don't agree with you".... Doing that just cheapens your argument. :2 cents: You're my buddy, but IMO that's not the way to go about it, even if you do feel that way.
