The doctrine of nonresistance against arbitrary power, and oppression, is absurd, slavish, and destructive

Gasp! That sounds like an...anti-government statement (an anti-tyrannical government statement, but who on the left will see that distinction?). Quick! Surround the New Hampshire legislature in plexiglass!

We know he listened to heavy metal, and now we find out he was a gamer...why am I not surprised?

That's no different than blaming his actions on political discourse.

That's a bit of an overstatement, inasmuch as the revelation came from an interview aired this morning on ABC News' Good Morning America TV show (which is most certainly part of the MSM).

What Rush and Drudge have done, however, is highlight it in a way that will prevent other MSM outlets and pundits from pretending that it did not occur.

Yeah, in my ping I didn't provide that background that this interview aired this morning on ABC's "Good Morning America" with Ashley Banfield. I guess I meant that Rush and Drudge were breaking the fact that the interview had aired this AM, and the MSM was doing its best to bury the interview. Sorry, the first I had heard of this interview - and the attempts to bury it - was at 12 noon ET via Rush and Drudge.

“Violence has always been a part of settling political disputes as a last means in civilized countries...that possibility can’t be used to preclude dissent.”

Yep. The founders had just started a violent refolution and still maintained their requirement of free political speech.

Great idea! And this should be added to the list of all the leftist lies and attempts to blame everything but the evil killer!

Looks like the MSM and left wing wackos have a little explaining to do. Shooter turns out to be not what they hoped for.

You are as delusional as the shooter, if you think that the above will make one iota of difference to the libs and the MSM. They will not miss a beat in blaming conservatism for this. They will twist and turn every which way in order to make it appear to work. Fake but accurate, fake, but accurate that will be the new mantra

It came from a guy that was supposedly a friend of his. I think I heard that on FOX.

They won't be doing any of it since lack of evidence for their assertions was never their concern.

The narrative is already “But the next guy will! WE NEED TO BAN PALIN!”

Facts don’t matter, the narrative does.

It would still be the rights fault.

Family connection with the county government.

Mom didn't want her son to get labeled for life as a nut. Now they are going to live a lifetime of regret for that.

Dang, I need to proofread....

“Yep. The founders had just started a violent refolution and still maintained their requirement of free political speech.”

I meant that they had just completed a violent revolution....

Where is Drudge getting this?

YouTube has Ashley Banfield's interview with Loughner's "best friend."

This information needs to be emailed to every member of the House and Senate. The Liberal playbook has been EXPOSED once again. We The People are on to their political games to steal our freedom.
