Breaking: Did a Radical Daily Kos Reader try to Assassinate Rep. Giffords?
Pundit Press ^ | 1/8/11 | Aurelius

Posted on 01/08/2011 11:52:16 AM PST by therightliveswithus

Today, House Representative Gabrielle Giffords of Arizona was shot in the head while holding a public event in Tucson, Arizona. Another eleven were also shot; Giffords was reportedly shot at "point blank range." Giffords and those shot were then rushed to the hospital.

In the shot term, with few answers out there, the major question arises: who shot Representative Giffords and why? One startling possibility: an angry Daily Kos reader named "BoyBlue" may be behind the shooting.

In a diary written just two days ago, BoyBlue wrote a diary exclaiming that Rep. Giffords was "DEAD to me!" The headline was followed by a rambling diary that contained a passage in which BoyBlue stated that he "shot [himself] in the mouth in a serious suicide attempt" after his same-sex partner left him.

BoyBlue then went on a diatribe against Giffords, writing (with language cleaned up):

"Today, just a little while ago, I saw on Andrea Mitchell Reports (out of the one eye in can still see out of) that Giffords voted AGAINST Nancy Pelosi as our Minority Leader. Rhetorical question: I fought back from my condition and jumped in with both feet to help Gabrielle Giffords for THIS s**t???"

I’m thinking it will turn out to be someone like this,, just judging from the deafening silence about the murderer so far. That, or sudden jihad,,she is a Jewish woman.

Prayers,,

Seems speculative. Rhetoric is one thing. Shooting is another.

Got a good chuckle a few minutes ago watching the stream of KOLD TV in Tucson.

One of their reporters said that even though the “national news sources”, and “he had just checked the Huffington Post”, were saying the Congresswoman was dead she was alive and in surgery.

Browsing some of his posts, he does live in Arizona, but seems to be much older than the description of the man they have in custody. But good try, the Facebook search engines must be near meltdown right now.

It doesn’t matter. The blame for this will rest on Republicans.

I saw the thread that blueboy wrote on DK.

I am pretty sure he will be getting a visit from the FBI.

This act was criminal and deadly. We don’t know if the person was far left, far right, or maybe hearing voices in their head from Satan.
This was not a normal act. We all use the voting booths or peacefully protest to make our points.

This was an abnormal person not associated with any group IMO because no group would condone this behavior (outside of maybe Islam of course).

How can someone who can’t even manage to kill himself with a gun to the mouth hit eleven people.

Individuals who are already using this act of violence to advance their political aganeda should be ashamed of themselves.

I am pretty sure this is “BoyBlue” of dailykos, but he posted about an hour ago about the shooting, so I doubt he is the shooter.

Lefty wack jobs are trying to associate this tragic event with Sarah Palin.

“Sarah Palin has just thrown down the gauntlet with a new site called Take Back The 20, which is aimed at knocking off 20 Democrats who voted for Obamacare in GOP-leaning districts.”

Isn’t this the typical MO of the radical left? JFK killed by a card-carrying commie, RFK by a muzzie, etc. David Horowitz changed his radical ways when what was left of his best freind Betty VanPatter was pulled out of SF bay with over 50 stab wounds, the handywork of the old Black Panthers he was enamored with. We’ll wait and see, let the moonbats make their crazy accusations, we all know what happens when we ASSume. I’m surprised none of them blamed it on GWB, yet.
