A retired Wisconsin judge was killed Friday in what the state’s attorney general said appeared to be a targeted attack. Not long after the attack, reports emerged of a list, seemingly authored by the alleged gunman, of elected officials. Here’s what we know so far.
1 / All it proves is that this low-life felon could write some names on a list. Shooting himself shows he had impulse-control and follow-through issues. And bad aim, too.
2 / Perhaps the judge should have had just one door in his home. And more guns.
3 / Even so, to the extent that it makes Mitch McConnell poop more blood and shortens his life is important.
Wasn’t legalization of this kind of murderous rampage-type activity the primary intent of the Second Amendment? The right to bear weapons of mass destruction was intended to assist individuals in taking the self-righteous fight to government officials they were otherwise at the mercy of, and helpless against??

Uhde had multiple Facebook pages. On several of them, he posted pro-Trump memes and graphics and shared posts against gun confiscation. One showed Hillary Clinton with duct tape over her mouth.
Perhaps killing a judge and others is Elise Stefanik’s idea of “Phase 2.” Or the next steps after January 6, 2021.
Elise seems to be pro-insurrection, pro-domestic-terrorism, especially with regard to the dangerous people that chanted hang Mike Pence and, using deadly force, got into the US Capitol, resulting in fatalities, including dead Capitol police. Elise and her team have announced that they stand ready to launch a PR campaign to try to minimize the apparent culpability of Republicans who conspired even prior to election day 2020, and then set that plan in motion as January 6, 2021 neared. Siding with conspirators like this is Elise Stefanik’s chosen path even after 18 months!
1 / Felons of a feather flock together. Definitely a white supremacist with not a scintilla of anything superior about him.
2 / Really, this guy is another uneducated white-trash loser looking for meaning and finding it in guns, grievances, and hatred of Others. Perfect role model for the NeoConfederate GQP. Maybe he went to church a few times.
3 / How was this multi-criminal able to qualify for gun purchases? The Founders wanted that? Says who?
Hatred seems to be pretty deeply burned into some people’s psyches. What would it take to humanely and safely deprogram 27%-30% (or more) of the population? Assuming that liberalism and a more considerate and compassionate majority were in control of the levers of power.
Is there a plan because it will take some kind of intervention for a not insignificant minority and if we ignore the problem, we’d be liable to be blindsided by it, even if we got some of what we wanted on the legislative side tomorrow.
Of course this is snark. We all know that the 2nd Amendment was to ensure a well regulated militia, armed with muskets. And perhaps to also act as ae militia in the South kept the slaves in order.
But, on the other hand, we also know that the Radical Supreme Court has chosen to interpret the Amendment differently and wrongly.
