The SPLC doesn't advocate "Second Amendment Remedies."
Thou doth protest too much, Whell. It seems to me that you've snuggled up to your Teabagger bedfellows for so long that you're now shocked to find out what you thought was a hard-on was in fact a Glock.

THANK YOU.
That would make statements like the following a rush to judgement driven by an individual's own prejudices.

It's a good bet that the Millers' would never have acted on their paranoid delusions without the social reinforcement they received out at Bundy's ranch from their fellow gun toting wackjobs.

...and very much like the Jared Laughner threads that popped up after than sad incident.

Yeah, sorry, I don't know what to do with this one. The level of denial is more than I've ever seen before. They intentionally left symbols of white supremacist and tea party motivation. Kind of like asking if you can prove the 9/11 terrorists were motivated by a Jihad movement.

What does that matter. The SPLC calls the site that inspired Corkins their "Hate Map", and implores folks to "Stand Strong Against Hate." Corkins was only doing what he was told...using Eddie's logic.

Whell - what do you think the significance of the flags and swastikas was? Or are you saying they had no meaning at all?

Imploring folks to "stand up against hate" is the same as advocating for people to take up arms against the government? I give up. Your false equivalencies are ridiculous.

Nonetheless true but you can't seem to recognize the complicity of the 2nd Amendment wingnuts rhetoric.
Ya know Mike, you're not as idiotic as the positions you defend, which begs the question, why do you persist defending the indefensible?

"The attack in Vegas is far from the only incident of violence by the American far right. According to data collected by the New America Foundation, right-wing extremists have killed 37 people in 16 violent incidents, in the United States since the 9/11 attacks. That number is more than the 21 people killed by militants motivated by al-Qaeda's ideology in the United States in the post-9/11 era.
Although a variety of left wing militants and environmental extremists have carried out violent attacks for political reasons against property and individuals since 9/11, none have been linked to a lethal attack."

This kind of stuff doesn't happen in a vacuum, Whell.

Here's an article worth pondering:
http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/...ing-terrorism/
"When you broadcast every day that the government of the world’s oldest democracy is a totalitarian beast bent on turning America into a prison of oppression and fear, when you glorify lawbreakers like Cliven Bundy, when you say that your opponents would literally destroy the country if they could, you can’t profess surprise when some people decide that violence is the only means of forestalling the disaster you have warned them about."

I don't think I've ever seen such a lowdown and laughable attempt at false equivalence from anyone on this forum or anywhere else for that matter.
Congratulations Mike. We oughta fix up a trophy for you using the Calaveras jumping frog as a motif and fill it with lead shot so it won't tip over.
Gawd, you really take the cake when it comes to absurdities taken to new heights or is it lows? Jebus H Christ awmighty.
