People on the left are insane (that can be verified by Right Wingers). So what kind of behavior should one expect from leftists, other than insane violence? Leftists are insane, violent criminals. It's an American fact!

What statistics are you referring to?

I might have misconstrued your meaning in the above.

From your opening quote I have issues concerning the basis on which you frame this discussion.

Quote:
Did the overblown class war rhetoric (rich vs poor, especially on the tax cuts) drive this man insane with rage, enough that he shot at those he "blamed" for his predicament and then took his own life?
You are a complete partisan and the sheer volume of content you have produced on this site with the general premise being, "Everything right is right, everything on the left is some conspiracy to destroy America" blah blah blah

In your opinion, you assert that material from the left concerning class division, income disparity and the basic gap of rich and poor is "over blown". From YOUR point of view, over blown is anything that doesn't agree with you. Which content on income disparity, which content or material on rich vs poor? In general or anything specific? Since you didn't cite any material, I can only thus assume you are speaking in general terms. Thus we can conclude that since you are referring to general terms, you consider the general debate of rich verses poor to be overblown.

Now, the post in which you conveniently removed.

Maybe the dems and obama need to ratchet down the overheated rhetoric about the "rich" taking from the poor, when in fact the "rich" FUND the poor.
Now this is where I love your postings because eventually, like the six degrees of Kevin Bacon, anything bad, will eventually end up with "Obama". Here in the above post we can see the Glenn Beck like chalk board, going from point to point, making steps ever closer and then...........

WHAMO back to Obama, right on cue. Gee, no one would have ever saw that coming huh!


Now you stated that this is just one of many cases, so I must then ask you to cite enough of these left wing caused cases of shooting sprees in order to prove that there are in fact many. If you would like, I can find some inspired by right wing causes and post them as well and we can compare the volume of cases and get a general idea where the ideological leanings of most mass shooting spree folks hail from. Sound fair? Or perhaps these are people with deeper seated personal issues who used some external issue to act upon?

Any rage and violent action taken by right wing extremists is justified because they are persecuted for being white, Christian, have money and are overtaxed(not them specificly but they know someone who is). It's reasonable to expect them to blow their tops especially in the socialistic, government controlled environment they are forced to live in. On the other hand radical liberals have no excuse for going on a rampage. they contribute nothing to society, they are mostly dirty, unkempt, on welfare, sucking the Social Security tit, wanting unemployment benefits just because they lost their jobs, demand free health care and won't extend tax cuts for millionaires. There needs to be a massive government program to weed these degenerates and misfits from our society. Those who buy cake with their food stamps, those who have children and draw welfare, those who expect the rest of us to pay for their retirement, and especially those who say "Happy Holidays!" instead of "Merry Christmas". A country in Europe did very well, thank you, in clensing the population of the dregs of their society until that communist criminal Roosevelt sent his minions overseas and brought down a perfectly tuned social structure. We as True, Patriotic Americans could learn a lesson here.

Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!Ha! Ha! Ha!Ha! Ha! Ha!Ha! Ha! Ha!Ha! Ha! Ha!Ha! Ha! Ha!Ha! Ha! Ha!

Sorry, sometimes I scare myself.

The question is does the bible work people into a frothing rage enough to bomb abortion clinics?

You have yet to answer that question.

He was a militia movement sympathiser, which is an anarchist, not a conservative.

The Bible says "Thou Shall Not Kill".
I think that refers to everyone, the innocent unborn babies and also the not so innocent doctors that end their lives.

I don't think they should ever be financed by taxpayers.
I am appalled that most all abortion clinics are in minority people's neighborhoods targeting them all for most abortions. 't think most black people know that the founder of Planned Parenthood just hated blacks and wanted to abort as many of them as she could. Please look up their history and most certainly don't take my word for it.

In the end, it is a fight for each baby peacefully one at a time.

Anyone arrogant enough to reject the verdict of the judge or of the priest who represents the LORD your God must be put to death. Such evil must be purged from Israel. (Deuteronomy 17:12 NLT)

"If a man lies with a male as with a women, both of them shall be put to death for their abominable deed; they have forfeited their lives." (Leviticus 20:13 NAB)

And the list goes on, and on, and on.

It tells you to kill also. The point is, most Christians don't follow these laws, just like most people that read the sites that the poster I was referring to keeps pointing out, and avoiding my question.

Rational people don't kill others, regardless of what they've read. The point is that this guy is just as irrational as the nut jobs that kill people for abortions, Hitler for killing the Jews, and any other nut that used whatever as a justification to try and harm others.

Nuts are nuts, what they read is like saying "I wonder if they killed someone because they ate eggs?"

Nice spin, but he seemed equally disillusioned with both political parties, as he said while talking to the school board. Something you might have realized if you actually watched the link you put up.
