Am I missing something?

What does the President have to do with the killer kid in Minnesota?

The Star Tribune warned its readers Saturday that some might be offended by a comic strip about the Red Lake Indian Reservation shootings.

I might be offended, if I understood the point the creator of this obviously very witless and unispired cartoon was trying to make.

Here they know they have a "cartoon" that is tasteless, senseless, and hurtful to those who lost loved ones in the shootings. So instead of re-printing an old one, they not only will print it, but they release it ahead of time to generate more readership. Effin editors are as bad as the author.

OK, here's what gets me: Alcaraz and his ilk complain that Bush didn't say something consoling after the incident, but apparently have nothing to say about the incident itself.

It's unbelievable that in a situation in which a kid latches on to a Libertarian-Green-Nazi hybrid group he is inspired to take out seven human beings, the only one who is painted as a bad guy is Bush because he didn't rush over to the survivors' side and say, "There, there..."

If it weren't for an opportunity to bash Bush, would Alcaraz have addressed the killings in his strip at all?

BTW -- I am vaguely familiar with the Libertarian National Socialist Green Party. I mentioned them in this thread about one of the weirdo leaders of the left's protest of the Florida recount in 2000.

I used to read a newspaper with this in it. I'm glad I don't get it anymore. This comic isn't even funny, has no wit, and is poorly drawn. I actually thought one of the characters was a type of bug because the writer is unable to draw correctly.
