that's how my mind works...obviously some are more prone to brainwashing than others...I am critical of anything my government or the media tells me...
But if you come across a site that reinforces your existing beliefs, you swallow everything it says -- hook, line, and sinker.
This is so awful. And shameful people would turn a tragedy that just happened a few hours ago that had zip to do with guns into a gun debate. I guess some people just can't help themselves.

If it had been two crazy white guys with guns shooting up the finish line... would you still be saying that now is a time to come together? I highly doubt it.
The left didn't claim it a time to come together after Sandy Hook. It certainly wasn't ever suggested that it wasn't a left or right thing. It certainly was used as an excuse to perpetuate a freedom taking agenda.
I'll lay odds this will become a freedom taking event as well.
Just wait until some on the Left dream up some reason to blame Bush, Palin, or the Tea Party for this.
The liberals want so much for it to be that. So many were coming up with the domestic terrorists -- and of course mentioning only white males. The liberals are more dismayed that the suspect apparently isn't a white Tea Party type than they are about the deaths and injuries.
