It doesn't really matter at this point.

Some politicians have already decided to claim that even if there is no link to the "rhetoric" in this case, it will be in the future.

Yeah, it's a hell of a thing to try to argue against the prescient.

It seems your insults are limited to dem, lib, and fool. Now, you tell me who the ape is.

You're the prick starting a thread that uses the shooting to keep your nose clean.

Nuts is nuts. Saying that rhetoric and negative talk caused this is ridiculous. The guy was a friggin lunatic.

fool, you're the one accusing me of some BS. I'm pointing out that the accusations of your fellow libs are complete and utter BS.

the truch isn't an insult. it may hurt, but's not an insult

Yeah, because I'm clearly a Democrat. If you can give me three tell-tale signs of my stances on any policy that would indicate that I'm a pure liberal, I'll gladly shut up.

I am accusing you of BS. Once again, you're using the shooting to bolster the integrity of your respective political party as well as a slight to an opposing ideology. While I understand this may be a wee bit difficult for you to read, you need to understand that this thread is entirely based on you taking advantage of a horrible tragedy.

so I'm taking advantage of a situation for my "political party" by posting a news report that completely contradicts all the accusations that the media has been making all week against "right wing radio". you're brilliant, you are a fool, democrat or not, you're a fool.

To be honest I don't understand your reaction here. It is all over the news that one group of people is blaming talk radio for this. The OP provides some evidence that such a claim is wrong.

Perhaps I'm just missing something here. Since the shooting there has been widespread speculation and some outright accusation that "right wing" media resources played a role. If the information related by this "friend" is accurate that would seem to be pretty contradictive to those assertions. I would think that somewhat germane to the topic. You don't?

I'm with you HD. Why not the strong reaction to LG's postings exploiting the shooting to support his theories of rhetoric?

I honestly haven't seen them. I love how we're basing all of this contradictory information off the words of a "friend" of a lunatic. Because if it's anything lunatics have, it's friends right?

What won't you guys buy into? Are you kidding me?

I'm not buying into anything. I've seen no evidence to suggest that right wing rhetoric had any role in this tragedy yet it is a core talking point from left leaning pundits. As evidence comes out that contradicts that claim it is germane to the discussion.

I no sooner would label a friends comments as truth in the matter than I would in any other matter but the simple reality is that it is at least one data point where the left punditry is operating on zero data points.

I'm definitely not going to say his actions were even significantly influenced by right wing media, but I'm not going to completely count off the notion that he subscribed the the philosophy either. Both sides of the media are bullsh*tting as much as they can get away with in regards to why this happened.

As usual, both sides are showing their true colors in this debate.

Why would you say that? I hate that oxy-popping fatboy as much as the next sensible guy, but I don't think he's capable of bringing about murderous intent in even the craziest of kooks.

You did notice how I myself somewhat caveated "friend" and the assumption the related information was accurate, right? OTOH why be so dismissive? It's an actual interview with a source. We don't have to say "There you have it, case closed!" but you seem rather comfortable dowplaying it.

this is hardly the only piece of evidence that he isn't right wing, but pretty much everyone has some aquantances who can talk about political persuasion.

if right wing radio did inspire this. there would have been much more attacks on politicians.

Because it's awfully convenient for a "friend" to come forth and defend the right (or the left, had the situation been switched around) when they're under fire from many sides. THAT is why I'm so dismissive.

Why would this friend even take the time and effort to make this statement? Is he a staunch conservative who would defend right wing media instead of simply pleading that his friend was insane?

There are too many fitting pieces here.
