Because for some stupid lame reason people are not held responsible for their actions...it's always something or someone else that "made" them do it or "told" them to do it.

What we have is a 22 year old that lost it.

You know that and I know that but it's the right leaning people and Tea Party that's on trial here.

I would be willing to bet my entire life savings this guy was on anti-depressents or some other type mood altering prescription drug.

They always are.

Folks...

We're all Americans. Left, right, and center we should all abhor this kind of insanity.

Now is not the time for pointing fingers. The criminal(s) who did this are not representative of any political party as far as we know.

Anarchy has nothing to do with being on the left. Anarchy means lack of government.

People on the left worship government.

At 22 I doubt he's got any life experience with any of his ramblings.
It's very easy to get caught up in a cult mentality and believe people are out to get you.

Tell that to your brethren, on the Left and in the media, who will be trying to push this guy as a rightie, because he "anti-government" while ignoring all the things that points to his leftie leanings.

All one needs to do is check out his youtube videos. They make no sense but he apparently felt he should be taken seriously.

This loser probably thought he could get his inane message to someone important, was sent to the back of the line because someone didn't recognize his greatness and so he came back with a gun to show everyone who dissed him.

My prayers and condolences to all those involved in this horrific tragedy.

This guy is a nut job.

I agree. One piece of good news, it looks like they are optimistic about the condition of Representative Giffords.
