This should definitely be handled as a hate crime as the gunman chose victims of a particular [perceived] ‘persuasion’: Liberals. I doubt the co-religionists, ostensibly all Christian, although of different sects, who have championed the right wing will denounce the crime. More likely they will blame the victims for being liberals or that their creed was lacking in fundamentalist purity. It seems the predictable jeremiahs like Robertson and Dobson have not weighed-in. They’re on the run anyway and busy deflecting hurricanes or aiming them at gay parades and churches, like they aim their disciples towards hatred. I guess though if a Konservative Kristian had been murdered by an avowed liberal with Al Franken’s or Chalmers Johnson’s books at home they’d be howling though.

We have a right to free speech. But no one guarantees you the right to become a millionaire using that right to be a hateful asshat.

walked in with 70-something shells for his shotgun but only fired like 3. I wonder what happened to make him stop.

3 members of the congregation made him stop. One of them grabbed the gun barrel and the other two tackled him to the ground, according to news reports.

He definitely found them. The leaders of the liberal movement are conscientious and engaged liberals. Check out the TVUUC website and you’ll see that they are on the cutting edge of liberalism. Leaders indeed.

The right-wing noise machine — more dangerous than rap music.

I just found the statement by Talk Radio Network on Savage’s comments, and I think I’m even more pissed off than I was previously. You see, my son has an “autism spectrum” disorder (PDD-NOS) not “full-blown” autism, so the fact that my son is able to talk and communicate – however difficult it is for him – seems to place my son directly in Savage’s line of fire because my son doesn’t have what Savage apparently considers to be “real” autism.

I also note that Savage is claimed to be the originator of the phrase “compassionate conservatism”.

Thank you for letting me know, and “good on you.” He is beyond repulsive and been very intentional and forceful in his refusal to apologize.

spocko,

I’d say it’s about time you sent your collection to all the advertisers of these disgusting shows asking them to examine their financial support for abeting violence like that exhibited in the church shootings in Knoxville.

If they have an ounce of decency in them they will withdraw their advertising from these shows.
