I notice they omit saying 'White' or 'Caucasian' man in his late teens or early 20s.  I have my own supposition on the probable meaning of this, though of course it could be simply shitty reporting, being NPR.

I was thinking the same thing.

This thread at the DUmp will go stone cold instantly if they announce a suspect with a Mexican-sounding name.

If that is the case and given the age of the attacker (if that is correct) I think very likely mark my words here,the DUmp will immediately pivot and declare that it was a poor person justifiably angered by mean conservatives wanting to break up his family and we really need amnesty to deal with his rage.

PMSNBC is saying that she's alive.  They talked to one person who supposedly saw her in an OR alive, and a county sheriff whose SWAT MD saw her alive.

FNC is now saying that she's alive in critical condition.

She was shot because she wasn't liberal enough?
 Thomas Fuentes on CNN now says it could have come from the left, those that felt she was not liberal enough!

They will convince themselves this was a hit job from the tea party no matter what the evidence shows.

It doesn't matter who the shooter turns out to be. He could be a schizophrenic communist from Sri Lanka and their story will be the same.

They'll still either blame "the climate of hate created by RW radio" or fall back on the time-honored "it's a shame but understandable how we would assume it was conservatives given their history and behavior blah blah blah".

That's always been their m.o. and they're never going to change.

RIP Hang on, Ms. Giffords. My heart cries out to your family and your friends and supporters.

Now, see how your average national party members are treating your death shooting...

Oh, yes, of course...so when the shooter's name is released with no GOP connection then the ASSUMPTION will be made that the GOP did this.

My own interpretation of this was that this was a Mexican Drug cartel hit, but that is all it is at this time: an interpretation.

EDIT: Turned out I was wrong, see later post.

Press conference from Tucson to begin any minute now.

Lots of wild rumors on all of the cable channels, and I'm sure ever crazier shit at the DUmp.

If it turns out that the shooter(s) were right-wing tea party supporters, 0bama may have his own Oklahoma City-type situation.

That disproves my earlier Cartel reference. I'll go back and edit that out as well.

I hate to say it, campers, but the Tea Party may be seriously hit hard on this one. You know the socialists are going to rally HARD around this. Sad, sad day.

The tea party is going to get hit on this even if they find the shooter's hero is Karl Marx.
The left is just itchin to point their fingers and say, "See, they are violent".

6. Normally, I don't do this...
   
But I'm enraged by her fake sympathies knowing that she put a target on Gabrielle Gifford.

You idiot the target was to defeat her at the polls not, shoot her. Hell Pelosi targeted a ton of Republicans as well.

Not necessarily.  There are incidents of Iraq/Afghan vets involved in gangs as kids and then bringning their training home, particularly in the SW.  Guy may be right, left, criminal, or God knows what, we just don't know yet.

You know, this comment really pisses me off, all you're doing is playing into the hands of the frothing at the mouth regressives. I don't know of anyone involved in the Tea Party movement that has ever advocated violence. There have been 3 incidents of violence since Obama became President and ALL 3 have been perpetrated by the left even though it was initially blamed on the right. This is the game regressives play when trying to marginalize people they disagree with.

With the information released so far it seems he is a complete lunatic.
He is reported to be a veteran of the Afghanistan war.

If and again if needs to be stressed this is correct,it is only a matter of time before the DUmp finds sympathy again for the guy as being in his state of lunacy from his service and it is Bushes fault.

That was my first thought too with what has been released so far.
Sounds like they caught the guy and hopefully she recovers and he is prosecuted to the full extent.

+1 my thoughts exactly.

bambi is on now. I'm waiting for the call out for more gun control.
