“What kind of person goes into a church and shoots nine people?” - Rand Paul.

Scott Roeder. You remember him, don’t you Senator? An anti-government nutbag who murdered Dr. George Tiller - in a church - because he performed abortions.

Or Wade Michael Page who murdered 6 - in a Sikh temple - in Oak Creek, Wisconsin. Just because.

Or Jim David Adkisson who killed two people and wounded seven - in the Tennessee Valley Unitarian Universalist Church - all motivated by his desire to kill “liberals” and Democrats.

See a pattern here, Senator? They’re conservatives, your people, fill with the bile from Hate-Radio, Hate cable news networks, and Reich-wing Hate blogs. And you armed them.

You talk about the importance of prayer in this time and we’re now seeing assaults on our religious liberty we’ve never seen before ~Rick Santorum

Assault on our religious liberty squawk, squawk
Assault on our religious linerty squawk squawk
Assault on our religious liberty squawk, squawk
Assault on our religious linerty squawk squawk

Leave it to the people who are intolerant, like Santorum to make it about religion when it is really racism esp. towards the “blah” people.

Now that they want to be president they feel bad for the media. Where the F*** have they been, this isn’t the first mass shooting we have had, nor the first hard evidence of the racism, and the NRA continues to encourage this kind of behavior…and not a one of these brave souls has done anything about gun control, speaking against the racism spewed by their personal media outlet FOX news.

If we had our election today and one of them were in the White House they would continue to pay homage to those few people, corporations and sources of large donations that support and advocate for exactly the kind of behavior.

I am speaking of the GOPTP, of course, but will the American people wake up and have the intelligence to see what monsters they have created and start voting to remove these sycophants from government.

Probably not, ignorance is much less work.

The willfulness of any politician to pretend that this shooting has nothing to do with our ridiculously permissive gun laws is bad enough. But Santorum’s offensive comment deserves a particular place in Hell.

Why are the Republican Candidates afraid to mention the word “Racism”. Are they afraid to anger their base?
Bernie Sanders seems the only one who understands what is going on. I think it is racism spread by hate radio and Fox and the proliferation of GUNS in our society brought to us by the NRA. Are we ever going to wake up?

Exactly right on…fill them up on hate media (Fox) and then go straight to extremely violent racist video games. An NRA membership can’t be far behind.

How long ago did Lindsey ‘pretend’ shoot Bernie Sanders with shot gun?
