Rep. Gabrielle Giffords Shot In Head, Others Dead In Arizona Shootings


Recommended Posts

Here's a twitter profile from someone who knew the person who has apparently been arrested in connection with the shooting. She says she hasn't seen him since 2007 but when she knew him he was left wing, a 'pothead' who was into Hendrix...

Even Fox News disagrees with that: http://www.foxnews.com/us/2011/01/09/arizona-suspected-gunman-no-stranger-to-trouble/ They are linking him with American Rennaisance. Who are they? Not very nice people: wiki and their hompage.

 

For those who can't be bothered to click the links, American Rennaisance is a white supremacist organization.

It's not completely clear yet what kind of creature this man is. Apparently he's read Hitler's Mein Kampf, the Communist Manifesto and posted a lot of rambling statements on Facebook. Seems he has a lot of grudges about political issues in general.

The fact that he targeted Congresswoman Giffords, a Democrat with political middle of the road views does point to him being a right wing nutter.

From his youtube vids, I reckon he has it in for "the system" and politics in general, rather than being particularly left/right.

 

Seems to be struggling to find any ideology whilst struggling to get on in life and has an irrational/semi rational against 'the system'.

 

He's a near on perfect stereotypical terrorist.

Years ago unbalanced people like him who went around uttering threats were locked up. Now it's no longer allowed. Worse still these kind of people can feed their obsessions on hate websites on the internet.

 

I can see his defense attorney using the old insanity plea when it comes time for his sentencing. Unfortunately it will I think, get him off a date with the executioner.

Palin and the TeaParty will pull a few strings.
