Kicky, what was this senator's stance on gay marriage, abortion, immigration, and health care? Do you know?
Amazing.
Are people really going to argue that this nasty tea party/am radio/foxnews media frenzy of continuously bashing Democrats (and anybody else standing in their way) has absolutely no effect on the minds of people? People who are already angry or unbalanced, will take a piece of Glenn Beck's idiocy, combine it with the tea party nonsense, and read that crap off Palin's website and take things wwwwwwwaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyy too far.
We saw the outrageous behavior at the town hall meetings (why anyone thought those were productive is beyond me). And now we're seeing it manifest in a truly tragical manner.
This nation has got to get back to a civil dialog. I never remember Bush bashing Clinton so much (vice versa). In fact, I never saw such nastiness in politics as I've seen since Obama has been elected. Race, economy, wars, immigration, social issues, and the media are all coming together to create a volatile atmosphere such as I've never seen before. Perhaps it was like this in the 60's during the Vietnam War?

Pro choice, didn't support the Arizona law, and appears to have supported health care reform. No mystery why she was a target of those from the right wing.
Also, it wasn't like this incident was isolated:

The truly horrific news in Tuscon today defies any sort of context, but it follows an incident of violence targeted at Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords earlier this year.
On March 21, 2010, the night the House of Representatives passed its sweeping health reform law, a window was smashed in Congresswoman Giffords's office in Tuscon, the city she has represented in Congress since 2006, where she was shot today. Her staff stayed late in the office, as the health care vote happened well into the night in Washington, and after everyone had left, someone smashed a window.

Wow, you're serious? Nevermind the dude probably has some serious mental issues, it's all the Tea Party's fault!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm pretty sure that facebook page is a fake. Only a handful of friends and lists "joined facebook" among recent activity.
Apparently his former myspace was myspace.com/fallenasleep. That page has since been deactivated.
UPDATE: Here's a picture of the guy. https://gallery.pictopia.com/azstar/gallery/102269/photo/8842226/?o=12

1. A lot of folks don't remember sign saying "Kill Bush" prior to 2008. There's a lot of selective remembering going on.
2. You don't actually watch or listen to Glenn Beck, do you?
3. It was a lot worse in the 1960s and 70s; not that we can't get there again if we really try.\
That said, this is a tragic event. Our prayers go out to the families of those hurt, and hope that the Congresswoman recovers. It is way too early to determine the motive for this seemingly senseless act of violence.

Of course not, but they have influence on these types of unbalanced people.
the civility needs to return. Did you even see a town hall meeting during the health care debate? Have you ever been to a Republican Caucus here in Utah? Wow, you should have seen the inflammatory remarks made to destroy Bennett

This doesn't have any influence whatsoever? Will you honestly say that this couldn't insight an already angry, broken, or unbalanced person to take action into their own hands?

I donna know? Where were you when threats were being made against Bush?
Civility in political discourse was never there, even from day one, nor do you want it. Free speech is a free society's way of ferreting out the idiots, racists, and morons.
The only reason the entire board knows you are a complete fool is because of the constant drivel you unleash in virtually every thread thanks to Jason's graciousness.
