-before we're so quick to associate that tucson nut bent on assassination with the right wing, tea baggin, racists clan -let's cobble up the hard evidence, eh? if not, the 'limbecks', hannitys, palins, et al will proceed to turn things on its head and spin it to their seeming advantage - we are all too familiar with how they roll...
an absolutely horrific event. was there a single cop, or element of security anywhere in that immediate vicinity - where a member of the us congress was setting up shop? damn! and yeah - how typical is this: the deranged individual was deemed to kooky to be allowed to enlist in the armed forces/geez, he was kicked outta the community college for his instability - but he was just fine and dandy when it came to purchasing a glock semiautomatic pistol. nra's gotta be proud.
six dead, 14 wounded. among the six, a judge, a congressional aide... and 9-year-old christina taylor green. if not for the heroics of those that jumped on the assailant, surely many more would be counted among the casualties. another proud day for those who champion lenient gun purchasing laws - and applying "cross hairs" on political candidates and their districts. smh//
