In reviewing the posts I see an interesting difference between “liberal” and “conservative” political killers.
Conservatives distance themselves from the murderers who cite conservative polical purposes for killing and cry out for justice regardless of stated politcal purposes(this wacko, McVey, etc).
Liberals point out how oppressed the leftist killer is, how he or she needs understanding and that society was truely responsible for driving him or her to it or allowing a gun to exist that could do such damage. Later, they declare the killer rehabilitated and give him or her a professorship at a major university.
A bit simplistic perhaps, but truer than any liberal would like to admit. Also, let no one misconstrue my sarcasm with a lack of understanding for the victims of this wack job. It was an evil act upon innocent souls and deserves strict temporal justice. May they rest in the peace of God.
If they are honest, and scientists are no more so than anyone else, they would admit they don’t have the foggiest notion of what is true or not about religion.
Course that hasn't been blasted as a headline over the MSM.
I heard this interview with Greg Knapp with someone who was in the church....crazy stuff

The shooter is a murderer. Why the need for any other description?

that was his ex-wife's church. Liberal or not, I'm sure that's relevant.
