Re: Shooting Spree in Arizona
And why are there political parties that encourage their supporters to carry guns into town-hall meetings and to political events? What message are they making if not the message of intimidation by threat of violence?

Re: Shooting Spree in Arizona
And why does our president say, "If they bring a knife, we'll bring a gun!"?

Re: Shooting Spree in Arizona
What do you want him to say, "If they bring a knife we'll turn the other cheek"?
So I'm glad you agree, Faldur, that the call to violence [is] a major problem and politicians and pundits would do well to retract such language. I don't care who's to blame (though when you start enumerating the infractions one party does seem to stand out). We need responsible debate, carried out in forums where people are not armed, and [we need] stronger gun laws.

Re: Shooting Spree in Arizona
Both politicians and media pundits -- whether they be on the left or the right -- need to tone down their rhetoric.

Re: Shooting Spree in Arizona
Trish, sorry but I have to disagree with you on that point. How many movies have come out depicting the assassination of sitting Democratic President? How many books have come out titled, "The Assassination of" a sitting Democratic President?
We could go quote for quote here and I am sure we would have enough material for a thousand posts. There is a huge difference between anger and violence. One in my opinion can be healthy, the other for damn good reason is against the law.
Guns? If more people carried guns, when psychopaths draw their weapons their ability to hurt innocent people would be greatly reduced.

This event was the predictable result of the call for second amendment solutions, and the near non-existence of meaningful firearm regulation.
Ben says,A civil, cordial and intellectual discourse in American politics seems, well, impossible. Sadly.
It's based on too much entertainment and not enough intellectual profundity.

Nobody's talking about Judge John Mccarthy Roll from Arizona. Our government is causing the same issues they're supposedly trying to "solve". Gun control will do nothing but make crime worse...
