.. the link to rhetoric and violence doesn't end with the Palin and her tea party. It extends to the political leadership of Arizona and the Republican Party, who have fomented laws and policies that logically lead to violence. Starting with the anti-immigrant SB 1070 and banning ethnic studies, leaders like Governor Jan Brewer, and Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio have to take as much responsibility for this violence as Palin and her cohorts. All their condolences ring hollow because of their callous inflammatory rhetoric and romanticization of guns and "Second Amendment remedies". Arizona is burning. It is Ground Zero for this extreme far-right, and their corporate, multi-billionaire sponsors. In the words of Pima County Sheriff Clarence Dupnik in responding to political mood leading to the shooting shooting, "Arizona I think has become the capital. We have become the mecca for prejudice and bigotry."
In the hours after the shooting, some right wing elements seem to have created fake social networking pages in order to associate Loughner with the Left. The full story about the mental state and political motivations for the shooter will hopefully come to light soon. The attempt to paint this suspect as a leftist continues the far-right's use of anti-communism and anti-democratic rhetoric to cover-up their own role in continuing the hate until its logical violent conclusion.
It was Giffords father, 75-year-old Spencer Giffords, who wept when asked if his 40-year-old daughter had any enemies, and answered, "Yeah," to The New York Post, "The whole tea party."
This shooting marks a dangerous and sad day for our country. It's up to the American people to say, "Enough" to the hate, the racism, incitement to violence and the fascist-like behavior of anti-government thugs. Political violence and assassination has no place in our democracy.

Are you sure this wasn’t from the DNC?
LLS
Communist Party slams Republicans, has anyone noticed they never slam the Democrats?
If Democrats didn’t equal Communist or visa versa, then they would be condemning both of the major political parties to build their own party’s influence. Instead, they are trying to tear down GOP while building up the DEMs.

This? From Communists? What is wrong with this picture?
Communsm requires violence
I wish them (commie swine) the best of luck when the shooting starts.
I heard it said the other day. If you don't stand behind people who own guns, feel free to stand in front of them.
And before I get slammed for this post, I mourn for the loss of life in Tuscon. I pray for the families daily.
But please don't get in the way of me and my right to own a firearm.
A communist said this? Seriously? LMAO! Communism is the epitome of hatred and bigotry! The author is a schmuck!!!
I have said it before: The Communist Party newspapers are indistinguishible from democrat party press releases.
The reason is that dedicated Marxists seized control of democrat party. But we are not supposed to talk about or notice this.
ROTFL!!! We never should have let the commies surrender. We should have taken them all out.
So the Communists are so worried about what, 6 deaths? What about the 100,000,000 murders they commmitted?
The Black Book of Communism: Crimes, Terror, Repression is a book which describes a history of repressions, both political and civilian, by Communist states, including genocides, extrajudicial executions, deportations, and artificial famines.
In the introduction, editor Stéphane Courtois states that “...Communist regimes...turned mass crime into a full-blown system of government”. He cites a death toll which totals 94 million, not counting the “excess deaths” (decrease of the population due to lower than-expected birth rates). The breakdown of the number of deaths given by Courtois is as follows:
65 million in the People’s Republic of China
20 million in the Soviet Union[3]
2 million in Cambodia
2 million in North Korea
1.7 million in Africa
1.5 million in Afghanistan
1 million in the Communist states of Eastern Europe
1 million in Vietnam[4]
150,000 in Latin America
10,000 deaths “resulting from actions of the international Communist movement and Communist parties not in power.”(p. 4)
Courtois claims that Communist regimes are responsible for a greater number of deaths than any other political ideal or movement, including Nazism. The statistics of victims includes executions, intentional destruction of population by starvation, and deaths resulting from deportations, physical confinement, or through forced labor.

These people are asshat. for the billionth time
The murderer was a LEFTWINGER. They put their fingers in their ears whenever the subject comes up
Dupnik better hope that the jihadists don’t discover that he insulted Islam with his Mecca comment.
Ya can’t tell this wasn’t written by a government issue, OEM, base member of the Democrat party. Remove Communist from the title and it couldn’t be anyone else other than a Democrat.
This is rich, coming from the crowd that distributes part of Loughner’s reading list.
There is no need for the communist party. The Democrats have replaced them In Spades.
