Tucson shooting victim yells "you're dead" at Tea Party spokesman

Tucson victim detained at taping of TV special - U.S. news - Crime & courts - msnbc.com

I sincerely sympathize with this man being shot, but he had no right to yell "you're dead" to a Tea Party spokesman.

What do you think?

 

Yep, but nothing major.

However, I found this interesting;

They commit a man reacting to being shot and witnessing a mass shooting because of one incident, but the numerous reports of Loughner's instability and nothing happened. Just guessing, but I would bet that Fuller's involuntary commitment was more due to Loughner's actions than his own. Since I was not there for either, I cannot determine which extreme, if either is, is more correct.

 

Agree with Rlm here.
Our local talk radio is outing all sorts of news on this Loghner ( sic ) guy, he has had numerous run ins with the law dating back a few years and was even kicked out of 2 schools. The " sheriff " and school board are refusing to release his records as well.......

National news, at least the honest ones, will pick up on this soon I hope. The normally bleeding far left AZ Republic has been excelent thru this, check out their website for some stuff that you have not read anywhere else .

 

The man just witnessed first-hand a massacre and was himself injured in the attack. Might he be suffering a little post traumatic stress? I hope they cut him some slack over this.

 

I have to agree with Moen on this. This man just went through quite an ordeal and I'm not going to question his current emotional state. But, on the other hand the spokesman didn't need to have the crap scared out of him by a guy telling him "you're dead" either. Maybe the guy needs to apologize to the spokesman and the spokesman needs to accept the apology.

 

Agree.....that would F anybody up

 

Personaly I thought he had the right under your constitution to say whatever he liked LOL

 

His mental state aside, you still can't threaten to kill someone. Another sensible First Amendment restriction.

 

LOL read my previouse posts on such things and the responses

 

Right or left or right or wrong? How far will this crap escalate?

It concerns me.

 

It'll continue to escalate till martial law is imposed or until some other form of tyranny is instituted. Hey...when you get a party showing bullseyes on different sections of the country, what else can we expect? They stir up the pot and the nuts come out. It serves the elite's agenda so it's not really surprising.

 

If you ever come up with a coherent thought you might have a compelling argument. However, you might be right about the bullseyes. Why, oh why, would the democrats come up with something so violent:

Tom is just another example of how dangerous the radical, violent & irresponsible left wing media can be to an immpressionable audience. They have convinced him, despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary, that Palin has somehow done something wrong. This devisive vitriol coming from the left has to be controlled or we'll see more shootings like the one in Tuscon and we'll see more brainless lemmings following their lead. If not for this rhetoric coming from the left we would be a much more civil society.

 

You think we should "reload" now?

 

You need to be more civil and stop the violent rhetoric.

 

I'm just repeating Sarah's brilliant strategy. I'm sorry if her words upset you. Maybe you guys need another spokesperson?

Here is the funny thing about the Right thinking that this map that they like to trot out in defense of Sarah Palin's crosshairs map; It wasn't created by the Democratic leadership like Palin's was created and used by a leading Republican candidate. As it turns out the people who created this targeted map were simply a nonprofit corporation unrelated to any democratic leader. See for yourself:

The Democratic Leadership Council (DLC) is a non-profit 501(c)(4) corporation. According to the IRS Publication 557, in the Organization Reference Chart section, the 501(c)4 consists of civic leagues, social welfare organizations, and local associations of employees. (Notice no democratic leaders in this description)

Now if you believe in freedom of speech, you believe that this organization can say or do whatever they want with respect to targeting Republicans but they do not have, nor do they need, the consent, approval, or permission of the Democratic leadership. So it makes little sense to attribute the blame for their targeted map to anyone in the Democratic Party unlike Palin's map.

Again, more false equivalency from the Right.

 

We will have more of these kinds of incidents and death threats until the media and politicians stop talking about civility...which should be in about a week...give or take.

 

Well, freedom of speech is freedom of speech. Does it matter if it comes from a leftist group like the DLC or the Republican National Committee? Not really....
