The successful one?

Kill Rupert Murdoch. :p:

You better hope nobody does, or you'll be held morally responsible, apparently.

I could live with that.

And so it goes...xoB feels the need to one-up the discussion.

People are making so many assumptions that fit with their own point of view.
Even a day later, there is NO information that points to the motives of this shooter
Instead, the only information the news media has come up with
is pointing towards pre-existing mental problems.

If one just has to find a political motivation, there's a closer tie in to a different victim... Chief Justice Roll.
His decision in a recent immigration case ran seriously counter to the prevailing mood in Arizona .

Amid Shock, Recalling Judge’s Life of Service

So far, the prevailing assumption is that the shooter went to the scene with premeditation.
No one has even posited that the shooter was in the store by coincidence,
and came outside to the confusion of flags and people around him, and then just went off his rocker.
I know my senario is not likely, but I use it to point out the lack of information at this point in time.

For all this to lead a discussion for a call to kill someone else is beyond me.

The pen[keyboard] is mightier than the sword[gun] ..

Temperance is a forgotten virtue.

Well the M.O. of a paranoid schizophrenic, and wolf put your two cents in, is that he hears voices in his head giving him various motives to kill, or becomes otherwise delusional, psychotic, and separated from reality.

Now it turns out the kid shot the Congresswoman first, and then went down the meeting line of people waiting to greet her, shooting them one by one.

Yeah.

They are saying the police are looking for a person of interest that was with the suspect. It would not be the first time that things were done using a mental deficient to do the dirty work. Is that one of the voices in his head? He showed up on the shopping mall videos.

A few comments from some who apparently knew him.

from whatever this place is ... The Jawa Report.




and from Time

Of course it didn't take some extremists long to blame the other side.

MSNBC's Olbermann blames Republicans for Tucson shooting

Olbermann is an idiot.

Deflect all you want guys, its just not going to matter how bat-shit insane the killer is, politicians who use gun terminology in their rhetoric ("don't retreat - reload!" from Palin, “ Second Amendment remedies” from Angle, and "Armed And Dangerous" from Bachmann) are acting dangerously irresponsible and this tragic event it is putting their behavior front and center.

Look at what is considered safe to express nowadays because of their rhetoric...

Bullshit. Let's ban Airplanes because of 9/11.:rolleyes:

Man that First Amendment is a bitch ain't it? :rolleyes: They must be responsible for all the violence in America.
