Of all the hundreds of cop killers in recent history, you managed to find one that you call right wing, while all the rest would pretty much solidly rest on the left.

Problem is, these neo-Nazis fit about as well on the right of the American political spectrum as the anarchists this past week in Europe fit on its left. Which is to say............not much of a fit.

I think FAR-right would more accurately describe this guy's belief system. Most conservatives don't have neo-Nazi and anti-Semitic views like this guy did, and I believe you liberals know that. Just another lame thread attempting to inflame conservatives. Yawn.

This guy shot the cops because he believed "Obama was going to take away his guns." That belief is NOT exclusive to the far right. Many on CD believe it fervently.

Using a story involving the death of police officers to instigate political debate is pretty dern psychopathic.

Why did he shoot the cops?

Because "Obama was going to take away his guns."

Wrong - his belief, fed by right wing websites (at the least), caused him to act.

Any statistician would get a good laugh at the absurd notion of a correlation between mental illness and visiting right wing blogs given one instance record.
