Just as the progressive scum are for the most part law abiding citizens. Using ricin negates thier message that people are safer with gun control measures. There is no political gain on either side to this.
I don't know that it's propaganda. I think it's more of a cutural difference. Australians have a different morals and belief structures than the US. They didn't have a Revolutionary War, or a wild west or any of the history that gives the US bragging rights. I think the 'American swagger' is singular to the US.

Do you remember the ricin letters that were sent to Daschle? After 9/11?
No one was blaming it on Americans then ...

Could be, but its either propaganda or Aussies have failed to learn from history or both. When a nations civilians are restricted the right to own firearms historically it ALWAYS results in democide. I don't know when will this happen I just know that historically that is how it always ends and Im not talking about 26 people dead or something like say the worst at Sandy Hook but I am talking about millions dead.,

The point was, that it turned out the FBI suspected an American when everyone else was screaming TERRORIST!
The suspect was a microbiologist :

sooooo pinning this on a "gun nut" seems premature don't you think?edit on 30-5-2013 by GeisterFahrer because: (no reason given)
Although you're right maybe 'nutjob' is too strong of a word. How about this; a psychologically unstable individual who would be best served by counseling in an effort to hug his/her inner child instead of being tried and sent to prison?
