White House Drive by Shooting

Yep, I'm sure you are pleased with yourself but I didn't see or hear the story from FOX, I heard it on NPR. I'm guessing this story is being reported by most media sources but it isn't surprising it wouldn't be reported by the media outlets you follow.

 

Sure you did, sure you did.

 

What about the occupiers that had a moment of silence and solidarity for the shooter?

 

OOOOOO....moen doesn't believe me? What will I ever do?????
That's right, I don't care!!!!

 

Looks like just another Right-wing religious nutcase with a gun and a mission from God to me. You guys really have to stop watching Fox. You're beginning to sound like Rick Perry.

 

You'll keep making stuff up is my guess. Why stop now?

 

So Moen I guess your silence about the moment of silence is you are remaining silent.

 

It seems to me that the guy talking is going off the false idea that this guy was an OWS person which we have already proven was just Fox running off at the mouth again with no proof in their 24/7 effort to paint the OWS protesters as dirty, violent hippies. At what point did he show any support for the shooter's actions? The guy also asks for the moment of silence to be for the White House so I really doubt that he was hoping this guy had succeeded. I think that a moment of silence can be for many reasons and it is difficult to realy tell what this one was about but I certainly don't see anyone praising this guy's efforts. But if you need to believe that he was showing support for the shooters actions, hey, knock yourself out. I just don't see it.

 

Now listen to the rest of it and see why he is a LEFT wing nut case - unless you really think Oprah has changes her loyalties.

So trying to get on Oprah makes you Left-wing these days? Wow? I thought she was off the air.

 

NPR is also reporting the shooter was a member of the DC OWS group (and you know how right wing they are).

 

That is one heck a of a lot more "evidence" that he is left wing than you have that he is right wing. That and the 7 incidences I named earlier to contradict your screwed up logic

BTW, there were more attempts on the "right wing" presidents (Reagan and forward" than on the "left wing" presidents even counting the latest as an "attempt". By your logic, that means that the left wing hatred is having a bigger impact than the right wing.

 

The government deceives the American people so the Army can go steal other country's oil. It's time to stop thinking of cannabis as this big scary drug that ruins lives because it is not even a drug. And another ridiculous law is for fighting when the majority of fights are fought for legitimate reasons like to get respect or teach a lesson to someone. Because the government is bullying these other countries for their oil, our freedom is at stake because of it. Because we have to fear of getting nuked because of what our government has dragged us into.

Is anyone really trying to pass this guy off as a right winger from that video? If you are just going off the religion aspect, that is pretty flimsy. If the only religious people in this country were right wing, the democrats would never get elected. Many Hispanics are deeply religious...and vote overwhelmingly democrat. And guns? He is/was a gang banger. That probably explains the guns better than any political affiliation.

But, I really don't think the guy is political in the party sense. Just another deeply disturbed individual. And his dislike of the government appears from the video to come from his equating the government to his parents who used to hit him for breaking the rules.

 

Quite literally an idiotic comment.

 

No he actually said that we should stop thinking and looking for evidence and just believe. I can't think of any statement more Right-wing than that.

 

I'd agree, that the guy isn't politically motivated so much as mentally unstable. I haven't watched the full video the man made, but doubt it was his particular political-leanings that drove him to shoot. Now though, the argument has turned into a debate on whether FOX is instilling fear and hatred into those who are mentally unstable and susceptible to that negative influence.

What most people here seem to be angry against is the idea of labeling his actions as being influenced by right-wing comments on FOX, etc. That isn't to say the man himself was right-wing, only that the comments made by a few of the right-wing commentors over the years has been more of a negative influence than the left-wing comments. I'm obviously on the side of those who believe FOX has been a negative influence, my proof would be the number of retractions and apologies they've had to make over the years after having lied on air... and unable to continue with the lie. Mind you, I watch CNN... and not much else myself.

 

I am no Fox Fan. But, I watched the entire 20 minute video and I am not sure this guy can spell Fox let alone knows where it is on his tv.

 

I thought the guy who shot Reagan did so to impress Jodie Foster... or was he a left-wing-rhetoric-speaking nut-case too?

The argument I'm making isn't that this guy was right-wing. I'm calling-out the right-wing commentors on FOX that spread fear and hatred, whether this incident is the result of those comments or not. If a commentor on CNN said the same thing as Beck, who was on CNN a few years back, I wouldn't hesitate to call them out either. The fact is, FOX is forced to apologize every now and then for airing lies. That they don't recognize the lies, and the frequency of their apologies, is why I can't trust FOX.

 

Oh, but moen has assigned his though process to the right wing. I really wonder if there is enough of it left to even call it a process.

 

And because the other networkss don't apologize (or rather you don't hear them apologize) does that really make think you think they don't make more mistakes?
