Arizona gunman why a trial?


Recommended Posts

If he's so lefty as INTERVIEWER claims then why did he target Congresswoman Gifford? She a Democrat and therefore to some degree leftwards in the US political spectrum.

 

The Democrats have sold out to international capitalism - they are traitors who have betrayed the working classes. Barack Obama had a once in a life time opportunity to truly re-mould America as a radical Socialist society - and blew it. Too timid. Too afraid.

Official: DHS has not determined any possible ties between Arizona shooter and right wing group

By Greg Sargent

 

For the last 24 hours, the Web has been alive with speculation that the Arizona shooter has some sort of ties to a right-wing group called American Renaissance. The primary source for this claim is a Fox News report from yesterday saying that law enforcement had made this determination based on information provided by the Department of Homeland Security.

 

But a DHS official tells me that the department has not established any such possibility, undercutting what appears to be the primary basis for this claim.

 

Fox News's report yesterday initially claimed that a DHS memo had outlined the possible connection, and defined American Renaissance as a "pro-white racist organization" that Jared Loughner "mentioned in some of his internet postings." Fox later walked back the report a bit, sourcing the claim to "a law enforcement memo based on information provided by DHS."

 

The Fox report caused a splash, with some news orgs reporting that anonymous officials had confirmed such possible ties. Some conservatives railed at DHS for supposedly trying to tie the shooter to the right for political reasons, and others disputed the suggestion that this displayed the shooter's ideological leanings.

 

But DHS has not officially provided any such information to any law enforcement officials, the DHS official says.

 

"We have not established any such possible link," the official says

Summary justice advocated? :huh:

 

One of the pillars of western society is that justice must be seen to be done.

 

At this stage, we have no idea what, if any, defence there might be. The accused, if found guilty, may be mentally ill? A public trial should bring out the facts of the case though - and only then can justice be seen to be done.

 

Thank god you're here robbo, the OP should be sat at your knee!

The Democrats never were a socialist party - and they became one their share of the vote would fall to effectively nil. Even working-class Americans don't want socialism within a million miles of their governments.

Obama never had any intention whatsoever of "transforming America into a radical socialist society" nor is he in any way of that mindset politically although his far right haters like to make such bizarre claims.

 

Capitalism has to exist if a society can function properly and possess some level of acceptable affluence and prosperity as our friends and former socialists the Chinese and Russians have found out.

 

Any other views are absolute rubbish and completely unrealistic

My, you need to be constantly 'spoon fed' information, don't you?

 

Incapable of doing your own research, or just too lazy?

 

Alleged Arizona shooter Jared Lee Loughner has Jewish mother, acquaintance says

 

An acquaintance of Jared Lee Loughner, the accused gunman in the shooting of U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, says his mother is Jewish.

 

Bryce Tierney, a friend of Loughner from high school, told Mother Jones magazine that the alleged gunman posted “Mein Kampf” as a “favorite book” on a social media site in part to provoke his mother, who Tierney says is Jewish.
