Just heard. Listening to the radio and they're all treating it very casually. Like it's no big deal. Strange.

There must be some way to make the (leftist?) shooter into a victim who was driven (by Trump or some evil republicant policy?) to resist, resist, resist. ;)

If that turns out to be a bridge too far then there is always the evil gun to blame. ;)

No, I'm not, I'm merely refusing to participate in the illusion that this is a functional society.

Partisan? Nah, reality check, kid, absolutrly. Your ilk blamed an a political psycho's shooting of giffords on a map. Screamed about "violent rhetoric, called for gun bans, etc.

Now you have comediens holding up heads, staging assasinations, etc, then this happens. I'm simply pointing out your ilk wont dare suggest as your ilk has done that left wing "violent rhetoric" had anything to do with it.

Even though a map with targets, is far
Less inciting, than the death calls, plays and imagry the left has paraded on trump.

Basically I am calling you a ****ing hypocrite.*

*- this is a general you, not any particular poster or person in particular but any "you" that whined about giffords and the palin map

I can't get past this part. I didn't read a word beyond it. Please tell me, what is "my ilk"? Provide examples, if you can.

Nah I'm good. The obvious is obvious on this one. You all whined about "violent rhetoric and imagry" over thr giffords shooting, blaming it on maps, palin, etc.

But now the shoe is on the other foot, you want to "wait and see". Lol you and your ilk are too much
 
re: Reports: 'Multiple shooting' at congressional baseball game practice field [W:73]

The shooting may be politically related and it may have nothing at all to do with politics. Its way too early for everyone to be throwing around motives.

I accept your concession, if you are so sensitive that you wont read pass the word "ilk" you are probably not going to be someone worth conversing with. *shrug*

Yawn, partisan****heads never miss an opportunity to spread the disease.

I would look for more and more of this type of thing. The illusion of a political system that serves people outside the donor class has worn a bit thin.

The Left shows it's true colors.

I was talking to the other Fenton. But, it's a valid question. Guns go off, and GOPs instantly start blaming the left. Because they've made them into a monolithic force for evil in the world. They bought the magic beans, when planted in your backyard, they grow into a beanstalk that allows you to spy on Obama from your backyard!

It may have nothing to do with politics, yes. But, not bloody likely.

Still, we should proceed with caution until we do know.

I'm sure it's just a coincidence.

I expect this to turn into a gun control argument fairly soon. :afraid:

Possibilities?

1. Radical Leftist targeting Republicans, either to punish them due to all the rhetoric about fascist Trump, or to give them a taste of "gunfire" to make them change on 2nd Amendment rights.

2. Radical Islamist terror attack.

3. Just some crazy guy with his own axe to grind.

Any other suggestions?

Oh, you're one of those "accept concession" people when a legitimate response is impossible. Got it. There's a thread somewhere else about the lamest of retorts, but I forget exactly where. ;)

Carry on. :2wave:

Oh, no, no, no... We are not in that special little club. Don't get confused by what you see on TV. These guys, Republican or Democrat doesn't matter, they care about keeping their seats, above all else. Not being the party in power is not as important as you may think, but keeping that seat is everything.

I'm actually kind of surprised it doesn't happen more often.

And no, I'm not suggesting it should.

The shooter is in custody, so we can find out more. He also appears to have been a reasonably bad shot, for which we can be thankful for.
