Jared Loughner: Instead of blaming partisan Rhetoric why not examine how the Arizona killer got a gun? There's no evidence that political hot Speech turned Jared Lee Loughner into a Murder -- now the trendy opinion among the chattering class -- but we do know that Arizona's incredibly lenient laws allowed this known crazy person to walk into a Sportsman's Warehouse outlet and purchase a semiautomatic Handgun with no questions asked.

Sarah Palin: I hate violence
On his radio program on Monday, Glenn Beck described an email exchange with Sarah Palin over Saturday's tragedy in Tuscon. Beck said there was no evidence that Jared Lee Loughner, the alleged shooter, was directed by political Rhetoric and motivations.

He mentioned that Palin had reached ou...
Look out! Crosshairs, death threats now target birthers, GOP
The American Patriot Foundation has received dozens of threatening phone message, e-mails and letters during "birther" Army officer Terrence Lakin's legal proceedings the past few months, including two letters that view the words "GOP" and "Birthers" through a sniper scope. An APF official claims the threats are inspired by media attacks on people who question President Barack Obama's eligibility to serve in the White House, even as many media figures are attempting to blame the Tucson massacre...

Redstate: Outspoken Sheriff Accused Of Dismissing Loughner Death Threats
Jared Loughner has been making death threats by phone to many people in Pima County including staff of Pima Community College, radio personalities and local Bloggers. When Pima County Sheriff's Office was informed, his deputies assured the Victims that he was being well managed by the Mental Health system. It was also suggested that further pressing of charges would be unnecessary and probably cause more problems than it solved as Jared Loughner has a family member that works for Pima County. Th...

On that single day, Dunmire and her staff and supporters watched uncomfortably as four men followed them from one event to the next.

Tucson shooting and the predictable Congressional response begins
It’s ironic that when you look up the definition of “knee-jerk” on Merriam Webster, they use “knee-jerk liberals” as an example of usage of the term. It’s proven true once again as the Tucson shooting, starring an idiot acting out his “conscience dreams” using a gun, brings the Gun Control freaks out of their closets with their Morality banners held high. Congress… who’ll take any advantage of a crisis or tragedy to exerciser power or ...

Gabrielle Giffords, according to an administration official. Obama, who ordered a national moment of silence in memory of those killed by shooting suspect Jared Lee Loughner at Giffords' "Congress on the Corner" event at a Tucson Shopping Mall, plans to attend some kind of memorial service, the person said.

An American Terrorist in Tucson Arizona
But soon after the murderous carnage and massacre by this Terrorist, too many American political figures and the American Media, have insistently badgered the American public with the fact that the terrorist is certifiably a lunatic!

First of all, this Terrorist, were he an Arab, or an African or an African American, he will be castigated as a monster, animal, bloodlust terrorist hoodlum. But f...

DALLAS | Mon Jan 10, 2011 7:21pm EST
DALLAS (Reuters) - Calls to reset the tone of politics in the aftermath of Saturday's shooting rampage in Arizona got short shrift on Talk Radio and elsewhere as left and right traded blame for the massacre.
From the right, Bloggers and pundits labeled suspected shooter Jared Lee Loughner a "leftist" while critics of conservative super-star Sarah Palin accused her of creating a combustible political atmosphere with her behavior and Rhetoric....
Al Sharpton has more bodies attributable to his speach than Sarah does
It is obviously not just me that is so shocked at the events of Saturday January 8th, oh and the violence against a member of Congress during a meet and greet is shocking too. It has been just over 48 hours now and the speculation on who is to blame for the violence that rang out in a Tucson Grocery Store Parking Lot is still going strong. And if you ask me most, if not all, of the speculated blame seems to be severely misdirected. Even Keith Olbermann who tried so hard to do i...

Tragedy in Arizona
Gabrielle Giffords was doing what members of Congress do every week: She was home in Tucson to meet with her constituents.
Today, Giffords lies in critical condition in a Tucson Hospital after one of those constituents opened fire with a semiautomatic Handgun. Six people died in the attack; 14 were injured.
The madness at the Tucson shopping center Saturday morning raises old and troubling questions about gun violence in America and threatens a treasured American tradition: the right of the pe...
