#1 Evading the issue. He was a liberal leftist. Except for a few RINOs, what political party has a lock on liberal leftists?

As far as political violence goes, there is a big difference between being prepared for violence, which is common among conservatives, and actually committing acts of political violence, which again, seems to be in the near exclusive domain of the Democrats.

As far as his mental illness goes, likewise, people who are mentally ill, and on the fringes of same, also tend to go Democrat. As do common violent criminals.

How many fingers need to point to the Democrat party before there is no longer quibbling about "shared responsibility?"

Conservatism, by its very nature, does not inspire those who are insane or politically violent to *do* anything about it.

#2 To be fair there are a few wackos on the right (again outside the normal spectrum. Maybe not a few, but Timothy McVeigh's gang, they were against totalitarian government (while the left loves totalitarian government) so that puts them on the right in most minds.

#3 Evading the issue. He was a liberal leftist.

I think they'll find he had been well to the left some years ago, but now his brain chemistry needs severe intervention, Anonymoose.

#4 TW,

Right you are about brain chemistry. I'd prescribe a few grains of Pb administered locally until the problem is resolved... (my better angels say this is not right but I can't help myself)

#5 I'm currently p-o'd because I think a contributing factor was whatever (probably illegal) drugs he's been taking for the past couple years, probably making his paranoid schizophrenia worse, and you could probably find out a lot from a hair sample. But all I see in his mug shot is him with his goddamn shaved head, laughing at me.

#6 Open borders so close by must've been presented a convenient, clear supply of pot for such a dope head.

#7 Let's find out if Uncle Fester there can still light up a bulb by putting it in his mouth when we run 100,000 volts through his body.
