Even during the football games they have been covering it. I'm not sure the V reference was right here. It seems wrong in this scenario.Asraehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12117145853566453635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8107893016475310251.post-74667611133203643102011-01-09T16:32:22.670+00:002011-01-09T16:32:22.670+00:00The shooter was basically set up to commit this ho...The shooter was basically set up to commit this horrific act, this political assassination. His mental health (or lack of it) only makes him more vulnerable in a country where it is easier to buy a semi than it is to get necessary treatment and support for mental illness. However, this should NOT be understood as a consequence of mental illness. The VAST majority of mentally ill people DO NOT PERFORM POLITICAL ASSASSINATIONS. McVeigh et al were clearly politically motivated. The conservatives set up this environment, while keeping their own hands clean. Not unlike being for the senseless wars, but keeping their own children far from harms way. Those of us on the left are also to blame. We have let the culture erode to this point.aidelnoreply@blogger.com
