This shooting is the fault of some nutjob who will get every bit of punishment he deserves. This is a national tragedy, not an exercise in scoring political points.

Huh? Obviously you haven't been reading the same thing as me. I don't see anyone trying to "blame" Sarah Palin. What I do see is people saying that her own words are inciteful and provactive. I don't see anyone laying any culpability at her feet.

Fatality was a young child, approx 9 yo.

I'm against the death penalty, but I think it should be there in the back pocket for clear-cut cases like this. I hope that 22 year old piece of shit gets put down one way or another.

How many trauma centers local, b/c UMC had only one fatality, noted above.

Live PC on MSNBC. The surgeon said he was very optimistic about her recovery and she was responsive to commands.

In fact, I've been in a home poker game where someone pulled a gun over some of the verbal repartee that flew around the table.

Apparently, you don't know what a libertarian is since the common denominator of them is the non-aggression doctrine.

I've reading for over a year now to prepare for social unrest. It's arrived.

Maybe the guy is a Manchurian candidate? Ev'r think of that? Or perhaps, she wasn't liberal enough for some commies?

Goodness, if this doesn't show the incredible hatred toward Palin the left has, what could...I mean right out of the gates!

Attaching this on Palin is akin to blaming Gore for the Uni-Bomber...found in his possesion was one of Gore's tree hugging books...

The media here locally are already trying to tie it into the teapartiers...yeah, go ahead and do that. That will so piss off them off...they know who they are, and they are not a collective bunch of kooks. Once the media is done trying to attach this to them, they'll make this November look like a walk in the park for liberals compared to what they'll do to them in 2012.

All political things aside, what a horrible tragedy; prayers for the victims and their families.
