Gunman critically wounds 7 in Tennessee church

What a bunch of blather.

Nobody made him crazy, and it wasn't talk radio that caused him to target a Unitarian church.

I see, Editec, but I also am not sure I agree with you. The right blames liberals much in the same way Hitler blamed the Jews...it is SO much easier to blame something besides yourself. So while, this person in particular, perhaps hated a group of people and blamed everything on them, isn't it instructive to point out how wrong he was?

Prolly not, Baba, but they gave him permission to do so.

Well someone put it in his head that liberals are bad. People who blow up abortion clinics too. Who did that? His conservative parents, friends, preacher, etc? Talk show host? Combination of all of them.

Anyways, lets just remember this the next time someone tries to blame a video game for murder.

Some people can't handle casinos, alcohol, violent movies. It doesn't mean they are at fault.

But I do hope this wakes up conservatives the next time they think about demonize liberals.

 

[Jeepers]

Naa.. there is no waking up.. they just hate people who are different than themselves... I can see this nutjob starting a movement in which all libs are targeted... This happens when evil festers in the hearts of those so eager to hate... libs are the new jews...

 

[Avatar4321]

There is no excuse.

But it's weird that he hated liberal policies and benefited from liberal policies, at least for awhile.

It makes me realize how much everyone blames their problems on others.

Sad isnt it? I dream of a day when people stop blaming their problems on others. I dream of a day when people accept responsibility to change their own life.

Like this story? {I didn't see the ranking for the most liberal college, maybe it all goes hand in hand,,,or drink in hand..... }




Survey: U. of Florida is top party school - Education - MSNBC.com

I only have one thing to say to a university that invents a beer bong.....was it the Engineering students?

Oh, make that two things to say to them...

Sounds like he was a self-hating Liberal.

Yes, this is redundant, as all Liberals hate themselves. Liberalism is a faith-based cult whose members all despise themselves. The average liberal rues the day he was born, hates being alive, but is too much of a coward to off himself, so instead makes it his life mission to make everyone as miserable and unhappy as he is. Luckily they so far have not succeeded, as evidenced by the existence of Conservatives.

Anyway, this murdering scumbag was on food stamps, he sure as fuck was no Conservative.

RIP to the victims.

libs are the new jews...

Oh shut the fuck. When 6,000,000 liberals are gassed to death with Zyklon B we'll talk. Dumbass.

The papers reported he went by the screen name WOW....

All that and RIP to the victims? The victims were probably progressives in the Unitarian Church......self-hating liberals...but anyway you did the RIP thing so you're absolved

It's American for satire, mate. Have you read some of the other comments in this thread?

I have, I have indeed. I was highly impressed with the beer bong.

But if I can be serious for a moment.

How come everything gets turned into a conservative/liberal sort of Manichean war? I mean this bloke is a nutter. Nutters are nutters, they don't have a particular ideology that drives them (not real nutters at least), they're driven by their deteriorating mental state, not by their voting intention. This bloke may be rationalising in his deteriorated mental state but that's not motivation. Anyway what would I know, I'm not a shrink.

 

[Jeepers]

6million or 1, when the same hatefilled motivation exists for the killing there is no difference. When you shmucks run around talking about americans being less than human or less than patriotic because of their political beliefs (or heritage, or color) its all the same thing... You hate mongers out there may not have pulled the trigger but you definitely loaded the gun... I was apt to believe that this was a one off crazy man, but when people make comments such as the following, I had a change of mind.

This sir is not satire... This is not funny... this is calous, yet common for your hate filled right leaning brethren.

You think you need to instruct right wingers that shooting up a liberal church is wrong?

Sure the right wing hatemongers give people like this a target. They are evil people doing the devils work. They are the whores of our modern Babylon.

But something in the world will give people like this a target to vent their rage on, regardless.

I cannot blame the right for the actions of a nutter who happens to be a right winger, too.

He is a nutter first, and a right winger coincidently.

I don't know if you heard, but Rush Limbough is fucking Jodie Foster.
And oh, by the way, here's your gun back, Travis.

Bill O'Reilly, Michael Savage, Sean Hannity on accused shooter's reading list : Church shooting : Knoxville News Sentinel

Police found right-wing political books, brass knuckles, empty shotgun shell boxes and a handgun in the Powell home of a man who said he attacked a church in order to kill liberals "who are ruining the country," court records show.

Knoxville police Sunday evening searched the Levy Drive home of Jim David Adkisson after he allegedly entered the Tennessee Valley Unitarian Universalist Church and killed two people and wounded six others during the presentation of a children's musical.

Knoxville Police Department Officer Steve Still requested the search warrant after interviewing Adkisson. who was subdued by several church members after firing three rounds from a 12-gauge shotgun into the congregation.

Adkisson targeted the church, Still wrote in the document obtained by WBIR-TV, Channel 10, "because of its liberal teachings and his belief that all liberals should be killed because they were ruining the country, and that he felt that the Democrats had tied his country's hands in the war on terror and they had ruined every institution in America with the aid of media outlets."

I think Bill O'Reilly, and Rusbo, and all the other trash talking people should tell their listeners to quit taking them too seriously. And any of the ones on the left that do it, but their names escape me.

Sure the right wing hatemongers give people like this a target. They are evil people doing the devils work. They are the whores of our modern Babylon.

But something in the world will give people like this a target to vent their rage on, regardless.

A nutter ripe for slurping up the pablum that the above mentioned talking heads put out. They may be doing it for the money, but it sounds like propaganda, like what happened in Rwanda, where different factions built up false fear and hatred that resulted in genocide.

This incident didn't occur in a vacuum.

I don't know if you heard, but Rush Limbough is fucking Jodie Foster.
And oh, by the way, here's your gun back, Travis.

I heard she was too old for him.

[doeton]

so when was the last time a liberal wing nut went psycho and shot up a bunch of conservatives?

i mean if this incident is solely based on the dude being loony...shouldn't there be psycho liberal killer out there?

 

[AllieBaba]

I'll bet the kid who shot up VA tech was a liberal. Which would explain why the press never mentioned his political affiliation....
