Very sad. Amazing how some people can get so sucked up into paranoid fantasies. Egged on by Fox News.

This is awful.

Though there are conflicting reports, the first ones I read said that Amanda did all the shooting.

Is that why she shot the two cops, her lover, and then herself?

My heart goes out to the parents. You do the best you can as a parent to bring up responsible, caring and empathetic human beings who will contribute to society. That your child would one day commit an act of pure malicious hate resulting in the death of five people is so far from consideration that it’s inconceivable.

A real man would see his life falling apart and wonder, “Maybe it’s time to stop smoking meth and take personal responsibility for my actions.” This idiot instead thought to himself, “Clearly the government and chemtrails are to blame for everything that is wrong with my life.”

Congratulations to all of the highly-paid hucksters throughout the ‘patriot nation’ for enabling this level of delusion and denial across our country. You must be proud!

This is what happens when authoritarian reactionaries peddle reactionary anti-authoritarianism for fun and profit.

My sister did something similar in regard to the marriage. We’re a pretty liberal family, but my sister married a super controlling moron. They got deeper and deeper into their evangelical church, and now we don’t see her or her family. It’s quite sad that this is happening. That whole fringe group on the right is nothing more than a cult.

How soon before Fox News starts to speculate on whether Todd Woodruff is sporting Islamic facial hair?

That’s what I heard too.

My wife, being a spiritual person, believes in Karma. I, too, having been exposed to a lot of Mexican and also Caribbean culture, am drawn to spirituality. To see a curandera is not unusual in Mexico or the Caribbean.

However, with

Rupert Murdoch
Roger Ailes
The entire FOX “news” cast of characters
The Republican Congress
The Republican Supreme Court
The present Fourth Estate in the U.S.

There may be an exception to the idea of Karma (or, at least, whatever they are due for will be less visible).

I do not blame Goober and Hillbilly Hanna for a lot of this.

(a) Ailes and Murdoch used a flawless business model to capture the minds of G. and H.H… Those minds are GONE
(b) The glitz of the FOX set matches and seems to have enough bells and whistles to hold G. and H.H in a trance
© Republicans in Congress are aware that they are destroying the U.S. and the planet, being much higher on the intelligence and information scale than G. and H.H.
(d) Roberts knows EXACTLY what he is doing.
(e) The charlatans of what is left of the Fourth Estate are guilty of negligence. But now, lying is not against the law–and the MSM folks sure know how to cash all those big checks from Fossil Fuel Inc.

I remember being five years old (the emotional age of G. and H.H.) As long as I was allowed to do what I want and think the way I want (which FOX guarantees with their Business Plan), I got away with it. That’s what (my) parents are (were) for.

Baggers are simply children without parents. Unfortunately, unlike real children, these kids can vote.

actually they are peddling authoritarianism not anti… just with the authority being the oligarchy.

It is very sad indeed. However, I am glad the likes of these idiots are no longer on this planet

It happens a lot. A persuadable, passive person (usually female), suffering from extreme social alienation and a pathological level of low self esteem. A controlling psychopath for a partner. Look at Starkweather-Fugate and the Rosemary West killings (about which Interpol wrote their song, “Evil”).

The unanswered question is: Do these women already have the sociopathic cruelty needed to kill, somewhere within? Or is it socialized into them by the partner, as a result of their other mental illnesses?

My contention that Teabaggery is a cult is confirmed.

They say love is blind and we can see that in play here. The daughter had no qualms whatsoever dispatching the man who drew on here husband. Far from being led astray, she was operating with both eyes wide open.

People like this don’t need Fox News. Any egging on will do.

It is my understanding that Steve Doocy’s father was a religious fundamentalist, had a beard like Bowe Bergahl’s dad and was prone to anger and violence that caused an oedipus complex in Steve Doocy. This is what turned Steve Doocy into the hands of Rupert Murdoch’s blondes and masseuse.
