Nope. Only liberalism is tyranny in their eyes. A deranged authoritarian wannabe doesn't qualify.

I'm pretty sure Bernie isn't an authoritarian.

So typical that republicans think guns violence is a big joke until it happens to them.

This is Steve Scalise.
Quote:
He is a hard-line conservative.
Scalise serves in the House Pro-Life Caucus, Second Amendment Task Force, and Tea Party Caucus. He co-sponsored legislation for a constitutional amendment to define marriage as between a man and a woman, as well as the Birthright Citizenship Act, H.R. 140, which would end birthright citizenship. He strongly supports the repeal and replace of Obamacare.
So what God do I pray to on behalf of this heartless monster?

This could have been a thread for coming together in common human feeling of compassion for the victims of senseless violence, and revulsion at the idea of politics by murder.

One person has seen to it that nothing like that happened.

I hope for a speedy recovery of all persons involved in the incident.

This reminds me a bit of that movie starring Michael Douglas... what's the title of it? An extremely frustrated man who cracks up and starts shooting people...

However - Mr. Hodkingson (or something like that) did the democratic people of America a bad turn. A shame.
