Bah....not surprising but did break the monotony of this boring Sat afternoon.
House Speaker John Boehner said he was "horrified" by the shooting.
"An attack on one who serves is an attack on all who serve," he said. "Acts and threats of violence against public officials have no place in our society."
Yep!!

The real sad thing about this is a 9 year old kid was murdered by some fool with a gun. Here we go
another gun debate. The talk will go on for months and quietly slip beneath the carpet without one
good idea. The real problem is politically people on both sides of American politics have gone from
the concept of exchanging ideas and debate to being personally uncivil to one another.
It is not only a political problem, it has become a problem in a number of areas. Churches have
become in some cases, uncivil and down right heartless in their approach to others. If you don't
believe what I believe there is a Devil and he will get you after God kills you.
In politics there can be no discussion, if you have a different solution you are a Communist or a Nazi
or the Devil himself. If you express a minority opinion you are not patriotic or a hate monger or other
such title that can be used to inflame emotions rather than intellect.
We have the real left who got left out of the Democratic Parties plan for the future now raising the level
of rhetoric that threatens the progress of that parties ability to grow. On the right a party that was once
the domain of fiscal conservatives, is now over run by a protest group that has hijacked a right of center
political agenda. Remember the Silent Majority theme that brought Newt Gingrich to power? That whole
thing eventually set back the right of center movement. When protest groups take over emotion
replaces reason on all side, When anger and emotion are not kept in check we experience what we saw
this morning. What could possibly be profound, or decisive than the death of a child?
Are the problems of America so terrible that people with guns have the right to go around shooting people
especially little children? This can happen anywhere in any society, whether it be Arizona or Sweden.
and it has happened in both. In North America it is time society took stock of itself and started to work
toward civility before trying to solve anything else.

What can you say about a guy like this? All this talk about a new currency, and mind control and
this is more of the wacky road to conspiracy theories that abound all over the world. This nut
case is a dreamer, I sure as hell hope there are less dreamers in my neighbourhood.
I still believe though, that when people reduce everything to emotional rhetoric it inspires the nut
cases to come out play

Thank goodness a member of congress got shot, else this incident would be brushed under the rug by now by American media, 8 hours later.
Canada strives to be like our gun-toting neighbours to the south....especially our military types.

Yes, insanity and the desire to kill people is a US phenomena. It didn't exist in humanity until North America was settled.
Your trolling is getting more and more preposterous.

People defenseless, being shot down by a gunman unafraid to simply step up and put a bullet in them........
The idea that MORE people would die in mass shootings if someone was there armed and capable of defending themselves is the most idiotic of the many moronic claims of anti-gunners.
Think about it.

When talking about the desire to see more people armed, few people seem to factor in that more people armed doesn't mean more target shooters with the passion or the skill for accuracy. Those who have that disposition are likely already carrying. Pushing to see the rest carrying also is frankly a worrying notion.

Sarah Palin's campaign from earlier this year. I would have thought before that it's just coincidence, and I still lean that way. But after the guy who admired Glenn Beck went and shot up an office of an organization that Beck had railed on, it caught my attention. Not only that, but there was also the FBI thing about fertile ground for right-wing militias and extremists. The left has it's fair share too, environmentalists, animal rights activists, I think maybe that some people have to start being more careful how ramped up they get with their rhetoric. Even if it doesn't encourage nutbars like this @sshole, milder discourse would be better.
