Tucson's interestingly named TV station, KGUN9, provides an update on J. Eric Fuller, one of the thankfully lightly wounded Tucson victims, later carted off for psychiatric observation after pointing a camera and threatening "You're dead" to a Tea Party leader at a public forum on the incident. A worker for liberal causes, Fuller glibly explained he was merely
"trying to make a point about how easy access to guns makes it easy to kill.
'Where Gabrielle Giffords was standing, when I began hearing the gunfire, I turned and looked and there was Jared [Loughner], athletically pumping out the rounds, taking aim and firing,' Fuller recalled. For him, the memory of the shooting is fresh and sharp. So sharp, it got him into trouble.
"He already believed guns are too easy to obtain when he became one of the shooting victims January 8th."
And so the ritual, glib apology he believes will exonerate him, glorify him even.
"'I'd like to reiterate my apology to Mr. Humphries. I really meant him no harm. However, what I was trying to do is demonstrate how very quickly within the same space of time as the click of a shutter on a camera that another person can pull a trigger and your life is over, it's done,' Fuller said."
Asked why he was sent for psychiatric evaluation, the ever glib Fuller answered
"'That's true, and this might in some people's mind discredit me, Craig, from what I'm saying, what I'm espousing, what I'm advocating. But, that's their decision to make,' Fuller responded.
"Fuller said he wants to work against assault weapons, and regards a handgun as an assault weapon if it has a high capacity clip like the one used in the mass shooting.
(snip)
"Fuller said he wants to see severe penalties for what he sees as advocating the assassination of an elected official. When asked to clarify, he said he was talking about the sort of violent imagery used in politics, like an ad that put cross hairs on Gabrielle Giffords congressional district as well as several others."
Is he opposed to the "violent imagery" he used in his recent institutionalizing as Fuller said "You're dead" while pointing an imaginary gun?
And speaking from experience, Fuller seemingly without irony, spoke about another aspect of his recent experience.
"'And another thing we need is to expand mental health facilities, not cut back on them. It's cruel to put people who are mentally ill in jail,' Fuller added."
True. They belong in psychiatric facilities.
May this barking moonbat get all the Thorazine he so richly deserves.
“Fuller said he wants to work against assault weapons, and regards a handgun as an assault weapon if it has a high capacity clip like the one used in the mass shooting.
Here we go with CLIP again. Dumba$$es know NOTHING about firearms . BTW , High Capacity must mean 1 round as the first shot hit Jeffords.
Opps. How soon we forget! Giffords
And his explanation for his violent rhetoric about “torture” and “ear necklace” of prominent Republicans made the previous day is?
“And another thing we need is to expand mental health facilities”
I don’t think there’s enough facilities to house all the progressives out there. As the slogan says “Liberalism is a mental disorder.” Fuller helps illustrate that idea.
It never seems to occur to these people that perhaps if they had weapons of their own and the proper training, they might be able to fire back instead of becoming "victims."
It has been mentioned more than once that had Loughner invaded a tea party or even a GOP meeting, he would have been lucky to get off a single shot-—a forest of gun barrels would have pointed in his direction right away.
There’s millions in America who think exactly like him.... And most of them vote.
More guns less crime.
I really have no idea how she will react but I’m looking forward to the day when she can express herself about all the crap that has come down since her shooting.
I hope she doesn’t turn into another Jim Brady. Or the “Racoon.”
C’mon, Fuller is not reeeeeally that insane. Sure, he’s mentally ill as most libs are, but in this case, I think he truly spoke out of a murderous hatred for conservatives, which is why he made the death threat to begin with. Calling him crazy or saying he was under “stress” just lets him off the hook too easily.
There probably a difference between being “insane” and being a asshat assclown LIB...but I don’t know what it is. Nonetheless, this moonbat needs to be held accountable for his death threat.
I know the other day there was some question as to whether this mental midget was even at the shooting site when it all happened. Was he ever seen in any of the videotapes?
As you stood there and did nothing...and then issued a death threat of your own. We don't know if you really were shot by Loughner.
I have an idea that is just as credible as your nonsensical retarded murderous rant...How about your being charged as an accessory to murder?
Lawyer up b!+ch!
Well something gave him a boo-boo on his knee
What Fuller refeses to recognize is that if all the citizens had been armed in that crowd (that wanted to be), Loughner would have been, in all probability, taken down after he fired one shot.
“He already believed guns are too easy to obtain ... “
The problem isn’t guns, the problem is that access to Liberals and Liberal ideas are too easy to obtain. If we just ban he mental disorder Liberalism, we will have a peaceful society!
No one has ever proven to me that this asshole was actually shot. I still believe he inflicted his own wounds (if any even exist) for a chance to seek instant fame.
A libtard moron. Previously convicted of 3rd degree rape.
