Now the interesting part is watching the different reactions. Beck over at fox news is blaming it on muslim's and liberals, the white nationalists want to know why it is such a big story since people get killed every day (maybe because it was at a museum adjacent to the national mall), and the liberals are calling out the recent rise in right wing extremists. Gawker mentioned the stormfront forums in the story yesterday, so i went and checked it out to see what they were talking about, and those people are lunatics.
That guy was just a nut... The media is trying to make it a political issue and blame the right for this. Like hatred wasn't running rampant when Bush was president....
He hated jews, he hated neocons, both Bush presidents... He was just a racist, deranged, idiot.

he pretty much hated everyone, did you happen to catch his website before it was taken down?
and griff, you're right, it was Ann Coulter who referenced muslims
No.. I heard about it on the radio and it was already down when I got in my office. Ann Coulter scares me a bit. I wouldn't kick her out of bed though. There's something sexy about a smart, opinionated woman even when they sound deranged most of the time. She's not bad looking either.
yeah..she's a little loony, but that's how i like my women. But if you want to see some truly delusional folks the stormfront forums are a good place to go and see what his guys ideology was. They think he was a coward since he waited until he was 89 years old to do it, and some don't believe he even did it (it is a conspiracy to censor them)
The really interesting part will be to see how long the coverage on this incident will last as compared to the coverage about the lunatic Muslim that shot those people at that Army recruiting center.
You notice that already the MSM is portraying all people that lean to the right as being from the same mindset as this nutjob?
At the same time they sure were careful not to portray all Muslims as being of the same mindset as the guy that shot up the recruiting center.

I haven't seen anyone saying people who lean to the right are with this nutjob. They just said right wing extremists, just like left wing extremists. That's like saying anyone who leans to the left is a member of PETA or a hippie....oh wait, people say that all the time
i recall a few people in here considering anyone who was on the left a hippie, but they may have been griff calling them hippies. Either way it's irrelevant, this guy can't really be considered a right wing extremist being that he is against a lot of what the right wing believes in. All of these extremists, from the nutjobs at PETA all the way over to the white nationalists, should just be in their own nutty wing. The bottom wing extremists.

Here's another thing that caught my attention that I have not seen mentioned anywhere.
Let's look at the differences in outcomes between this incident and the immigration center or V Tech shooting incidents.
1. Armed man walks into building.
2. Armed man begins shooting.
3. Other people with firearms are present. 3. No one else is armed.
4. Assailant begins shooting.
5. Other armed individuals return fire. 5. Assailant takes his time and shoots people one by one.
6. Assailant is shot. 6. Police arrive 30+ minutes later
Result - Assailant is shot and threat is over but one guard does die at the hospital. Assailant takes his own life after killing over a dozen people.
7. The Left calls for more gun control.

good call, but I don't think gun control has an effect on armed security guards, which is who shot the assailant. Either way I think it's obvious guns aren't the problem, millions and millions of people have guns, but they don't go shooting people up. The only gun rules I agree with are the ones preventing kids and people with a record of mental instability from buying guns
