Dear Lurkers, Gabrielle Giffords is dead to me

Or at least that what they said over at DailyKos:

Until they scrubbed (read: hid) the post:

Go ahead asshats, prove to us you're really principled about responsible speech vs hate and fear mongering.

Otherwise we will be left to conclude what this is really about is taking a tragedy and turning it into an opportunity to silence honest debate.

I hope your not holding your breath and think those mental midgets are ever going to admit the shooter was one of theirs even with proof.

Now I'm just hoping SOMEONE will hold these idiot's feet to the fire if it is in fact one of theirs that has done this.

Sounds to me like the shooter was one of THEM.

In a MySpace profile, Loughner said “My favorite interest was reading, and I studied grammar. Conscience dreams were a great study in college.”

He lists among his favorite books “Mein Kampf” and “The Communist Manifesto”. But he also includes a broad variety of other titles, including: “Animal Farm,” “Brave New World,”To Kill a Mockingbird,” and “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest”.

In a rambling YouTube message referring to a new currency, Loughner said: “I know who’s listening: Government Officials, and the People. Nearly all the people, who don’t know this accurate information of a new currency, aren’t aware of mind control and brainwash methods. If I have my civil rights, then this message wouldn’t have happen.”

I really do not care about the political affiliations of the dumb ass that pulled the trigger.  My biggest problem is that this will become a federal case, and there is no federal death penalty.
You see, I don't care you how feel.  I really don't.  More importantly, neither does anyone else.  Only about 200 people on a planet of 7 billion actually care about your feelings, and that's if you're lucky.  The sooner you grasp this lesson, the better off you will be.  And since almost no one gives a damn what you do, say, think, or feel, appealing to your feelings when you encounter differences of opinion is not only illogical, but useless.

There most certainly is, though it's only been used once in recent times(10 years ago for McVeigh.)

There is, but it's a question of whether or not the shooter was targeting the judge.  If he was, he's toast.

He'll still be toast under state statutes.  No way in hell they won't try to give this guy the needle.

After reading a ton of his rants, I'm convinced that he is part of the left fringe, where they have some commonality with staunch libertarians -- Mike Malloy and/or Alex Jones/infowars.com fan.

I was mistaken about the fed death penalty.  Here are all the USC that if found guilty of any of them the death penalty is an option.  http://www.deathpenaltyinfo.org/federal-laws-providing-death-penalty

Good.

Based on the news coverage earlier, I thought he had been shot and killed.  I don't understand why they don't just put this asshole up against a brick wall and take the top of his head off with a rifle.

I'll just say my piece. Malloy is anything but a free thinker. I'll admit he may actually think once in a while, but not about much. About the only thing on his tiny little mind is hate, venom, and vitriol.

He's a screamer, a whiner, and a loon. How could he be considered a libertarian when he's basically a robotic parrot to the extreme. He may as well be sitting on Soros' shoulder.

It is not difficult to pigeon-hole Malloy politically. Generally speaking, he is a traditional Liberal Democrat doing his part to return the Democratic Party to its Liberal roots.

A liberal he is then.

No no -- Im not - Im suggesting he is somewhere between the two - half of his screeds have an Alex Jones libertarian to the point of kooky flavor, and the other half he is a raving moonbat, with a blend of each of their conspiracy theories. With that being said, there are common things that Malloy and Jones rail against...

'Neocons' (Jooooos)
'Military Industrial Complex' (Joooooos)
'Shadow Government' (JOOOOOOOOOOOOOOS)


Wouldn't surprise me to learn he is a 9-11 troofer too.... (A.K.A. J00ooOOooOOoo000oOOS)

Yes indeedy he is. At least, he advocates for them. Someone here posted a link to his forum, which, I've seen before. But like in DUmorland, there is a Troofer board there too.

They rarely use the death penalty. The last time it was used Timothy McVeigh in 2001.
