Also a political message board with liberals was even saying the media blaming Palin or anybody for the shooting in Az. is a desperate political ploy. I read some comments in YAHOO after an article and the comments were all Palin blaming spam. So I wonder if there is an Obama campaign headquarters posting? If the dems continue all of this it will back-fire. America wants ObamaCare repealed and JOBS and the economy fixed. Nothing has changed because some loon kid acted horrifically.
The youtube page
http://www.youtube.com/user/giffords2 is DIRECTLY linked from Giffords’ OFFICIAL website at http://giffords.house.gov/ The link is on the right, listed under communities.
I would agree with that if there were more “subscriptions” (friends) on Giffords’ page. There are only 2. Jared Loughner and Ike Skelton.
It’s still there as of 1:34est.
Jack.
I’m getting the feeling the shooter actually fancied this lady and the shooting is his sick attempt to bring them together.
I don’t think he intended to survive the day.
didn’t his obsession begin 3 yrs. ago?
Around the time she got married?
Good find.....I didn’t look too closely at her .gov page.
Very Strange. That would indicate that it is a legit page.
With the errors, her subscription to Jared, and some of the freakish subscribers, I was sure it was faked.
Hacked?
Right. The Giffords Congressional page Communities section has a Youtube button that links to the giffords2 Youtube page. So there is no doubt that the giffords2 Youtube page is legitimate. Very strange that Giffords would list her age as 27 and publicly link to Loughner’s page.
“Do you have any proof that the shooter Loughner made this page?”
No, just an incorrect hunch.
These are questions that Sheriff Dupnik should be investigating instead of giving his political opinions. News reporters should ask Dupnik for his opinions on the Youtube links.
They will overplay their hand. It's their finest, most predictable trait.
I just noticed that Giffords’ youtube channel was last accessed 1 day ago. Sorry if someone has already mentioned it but it would be great to know on what date the subscription to Loughner’s channel was made.
Also, Loughner’s page lists one “favorite” a video from user “Starhitshnaz.” (I believe Sharhitshnaz IS Jared Loughner but who knows.) HNAZ could stand for Health Net of Arizona.
I have no idea if any of this means ANYTHING but it’s definitely interesting.
She is 40...so something is awry with that page....not 27.
Right. She couldn’t be 27 and be in congress.
This means that someone with access to the Giffords account logged in, visited the Loughner profile and clicked “subscribe” to follow it.
The question is who and why.
This is a potentially pretty big - as an investigator I would want to know the answers to both questions because it could signal beforehand knowledge of Loughner or the threat he posed.
“Age 27” is pulled from the Google account used to create the Youtube account and channel.
This tells you who created the channel - it’s a 27 year old vendor, volunteer or staffer. The age comes from Google account, not the youtube account.
joe.smith@gmail.com, for example, creates the Giffords2 Youtube account. The age for the master/login account follows.
On YouTube you can either subscribe to a site or someone can subscribe to your site. I appears someone running Gifford’s site subscribed to this nutjobs site. For what purpose is the question. Did her office know about this kook and do it to let them know they were keeping an eye on him or what gives? Why would the congress woman only subscribe to 2 other sites, one being a whack-job? Or is someone playing some kind of sick joke.
That makes sense. I’d forgotten the whole google/youtube account linking thing.
What you need to remember is despite the fact that this page has her name embroidered all over it, it dosent mean that she made it. Look at the last login it was a day ago. Im not sure about anyone else, but im pretty sure shes still in critical condition, so I doubt shes managing her Youtube account. So, it must be true that a staffer had changed this youtube account, not her. Also in a past post someone mentioned “It was noticed last night”. This just further proves that it could have been altered by a staffer.
