Doesn't sound like a Mexican drug-runner to me...

My condolences to Gifford's family and the US of A.

...So it begins. The grassroots are mobilized and the requisite airplane crashes are no longer requisite.

Federal Judge John Rolls was wounded and reported dead from sources at this event

Everyone can be found, the only item of importance is how many resources is one willing to devote to finding someone.

Of course I can be found, just not by anyone on ATS

You don't really know who is on ATS.

Assumptions have done more then one person in.

Isn't that the truth! It is always the guy who thinks he's brighter than the next guy who falls. Self-assurance is often misleading because a "blindspot" is exactly that - something an individual is incapable of seeing as a weakness.

Somebody face book this guy and post the info..
Jared Laughner

Apparently she was on Sarah Palin's "hit list" and that there was an ad on her website that pretty interesting.

I think this might be his youtube account. www.youtube.com...

I am of the opinion that when one attempts to restrict, or take away the liberties of others, they forfeit their right to life.

That's funny, because it seems to me that declaring that someone else doesn't have the right to live... means that you're restricting their liberties... which means that you would totally be down with me shooting you in the face, right? I mean, after all, if you believe that those who restrict the liberty of others don't have the right to live and are therefore taking away their rights, then it follows that you yourself forfeit your right to life.

Anyway, I hope everyone who thinks like you decides to follow through on their logic! It'd be nice for destructive hacks like yourself to fall off the face of the earth by your own hands.

Jared Laughner appears to have a profile on GeekSmack...

Jared Laughner GEEK-SMACK profile

Whether it's the same guy I don't know. Can't view profiles on there as I'm not a member.

I'd say it's a pretty good bet considering how utterly deluded and messed up most of its members are. Seems like the kind of stunt "Tea-baggers" and people on here have been praying for...Be careful what you wish for morons.

I take extreme offense to that.
I am a believer in the Grassroots Tea Party
and I find that you lump all TP in the same
fold is rather moronic.

Hear hear!

It is moronic.

Over-generalization lets the mentally insufficient happily lump people together so as to avoid actually thinking about the genuine concerns of groups of people.

It is the foundation of racism as well; we all know that "_____"s are lazy, and we all know that "_______"s are thieves.

Over-generalization is the resort of the intellectually challenged.

So now Fox is reporting that he opened up with an automatic weapon...Earlier on Fox I listened to an interview with a person who described hearing 15 shots, said she began counting after the first few...Automatic now? Already spins are starting to show up...

Doctor just announced the kid died. Sad state of affairs.

One of his uploaded videos: www.youtube.com.../a/u/1/nHoaZaLbqB4 (the Introduction to Jared Laughner one)

Read it through to the end.

Seems like my hunch could have been right. He certainly seems to be of a "Tea Party" bent.

Holy Crap, this is a play for the gun lobby, a lady on CNN was commenting on the state of the Country. She saw a bumper sticker:



"Keep on honking, I'm reloading"

....then she comments on the state of the nation.


Bloody hell, the fatality was a child, I feel sick.

While I'll agree that there's a lot wrong with our government, this is not really the best way to go about changing things. However, I will mention that the big mouth narrating the live video feed is having a field day with the editorializing and demonization of guns already.

"The suspect had an extended magazine. More bullets. More carnage."

Oh, now they are discussing bumper stickers:' I saw one the other day 'Keep Honking, I'm Reloading", as if those bumper stickers are somehow not intended to be humorous.

Liberal CNN at it already. Watch for calls for tighter gun laws from big liberal players within hours.

That appears to be him...

Looks like he's a douche bag that ate too many new age books for dinner, and took action on issues he barely understands.

I am not inciting violence but just noticing
a trend.

It seems that Gov Politicians have become targets
in somebody's war. Maryland Gov. DHS Janet
Napolitano and now Giffords all in the same
week. It would appear somebody is fed up
with the current tyrannical regime.
But for the record, I had nothing to do
with any of these events. Just trying
to formulate a theory based on relevant
current events. Please forgive if this
offends.

It HARDLY seems she's part of a tyrannical regime. She's actually a blue-dog, quite mediocre in terms of the Congress. What it seems like is the right-wing quasi-fascist rhetoric got to some idiot who swallowed the propaganda and viewed all Democrats as Socialists, and therefore Communists, and therefore evil... this is what happens when lies are spread by a dying party (like the GOP and their corporate media lackeys).

The blood's on their hands.

Universal healthcare is NOT tyranny either. Anybody who believes that is a completely brainwashed fool.

Look at her stances:

It's really sad when people like this get caught up in a propaganda war. It's also sad that people always act this aggressively towards the lesser-evil or non-evil after being brainwashed by the real evil...

Yes, that has to be him. It looks like he's had a lot on his mind regarding the government.

I wonder if the press even knows about this YouTube personal page?
