Why would a liberal want to shoot a Female Democrat?... Extreme Conservative righties are just trying to detach themselves from the current issue... After all the extreme rhetoric we've heard?... Nice try...
Here are some quotes:
''I'm the mayor, I can do whatever I want until the courts tell me I can't.''
—Sarah Palin
''Nuclear weaponry, of course, would be the be-all, end-all of just too many people in too many parts of our planet.''
—Sarah Palin, CBS interview with Katie Couric, Sept. 25, 2008
''Dr. Laura: Don't retreat... Reload! ...
- Sarah Palin
"And we’re seeing the fulfillment of the Book of Judges here in our own time, where every man doing that which is right in his own eyes—in other words, anarchy.”

''This cannot pass. What we have to do today is make a covenant, to slit our wrists, be blood brothers on this thing. This will not pass. We will do whatever it takes to make sure this doesn't pass.''

''I want people in Minnesota armed and dangerous on this issue of the energy tax because we need to fight back.

The left sees the people are not buying their LIES so they can strip us of more rights and are getting more and more desperate. This is just an example of the degeneracy of liberalism.
This is very true,it took us a long time to realise the changes that were happening in my MIL.....hopefully it isn't too late.
I'm sorry there's something wrong with your MIL. As she changed, did your family also fall into the pitfall of habitual excusing? That is something that typically happens when young adults become schizophrenic. At first the problems are minor, and people make excuses. "He's a teenager, they're so moody." "It's the people he's hanging out with now, they're so different from his old friends." "He's trying to find himself, experimentation is natural." As the problems pick up in pace, the habit to excuse is already established. It's a coping mechanism. But it gets in the way of people who need help getting that help. Which is why, so often, the law gets involved. It seems in this case, the law was getting involved, but the college buffered those incidents. Campus police often try to resolve issues without bringing in outside authority, because we don't want young people to get records that can haunt them the rest of their lives. And that's not a bad thing, but at the point when this young man had five run-in's with the campus police, there was a need to balance what was happening. He wasn't a high-spirited kid pulling pranks, he was a troubled kid who needed help. The fact that the college would not permit him readmission without a mental health evaluation says that the college already realized this young man needed help.
I can only quote three sentences, and this article is chock-full of facts, so here's a teaser:
There is an alternative path, "immediate suspension," but for that you either have to demonstrate that the student represents "an unreasonable risk of danger to himself/herself or others," or that the student's "presence on College property poses a significant risk of disruption of educational activities," which sounds more global than persistently interrupting one class at a time. The "risk of danger to himself/herself or others" standard is the one that counts here, and while in hindsight it's clear that Loughner posed such a risk, it would have been difficult to demonstrate that at the time. To do so, Loughner would have to have committed an act of violence or threatened to do so.
Apparently, he did not commit or threaten to commit acts of violence.

Might want to look in your own camp first
For the chief local law enforcement officer to be politicizing a killing within the first 24 hours, and to be suggesting the likely defense available to the murderer is truly incredible.
