Spinning the News

Typical soul searching about the Tucson Shooting:
"The recent shooting of Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords should cause us to examine the nature of disagreement between political groups — an underlying topic to the congresswoman's shooting. At the same time, we should also reconsider our gun control policies.Many have noted the connections between Gifford's shooting and the idea that, as a country, we are unable to disagree without it devolving into name-calling and insults."-moreTypical "he was disturbed" analysis of the Jihadi shooter:
"Why would someone who used to be known as a seemingly rational person suddenly perpetrate a gruesome, irrational act of violence?" ...Dr. Hasan had easy access to potent brain-altering psychiatric drugs which he was probably prescribing widely to his psychologically traumatized soldier-patients, unaware of the serious dangers to them or to himself... Certain heavily-marketed psychiatric drugs are known to cause a number of serious adverse side effects including hostility, suicidality, sleep alteration, depression, mania and the potentially lethal “I don’t give a damn” attitude so common among adolescent users of antidepressant drugs." -more

You really are afraid of brown people, aren't you.
The above post is from a deranged person.

Thank you for your astute observation.
Yes, I am "afraid of brown people" (when they are Islamist murderers on a rampage).
BTW, I am also afraid of white, yellow, and black people who are Islamist murderers on a rampage.

Yaakov,of course you are astute in your answer to Anonymous 1.
My question to An.1 is why did you assume that Islamic terrorists are brown? The connection between Islamic terrorists is not color. They are white, brown ,black, yellow and red etc.The only thing all these colors have in common is Fanatical Islam teachings and despicable actions.
May the G-d of Israel and all colors of people have mercy on their souls in accordance with their deeds.

This is so spot on. You have encapsulated the whole issue into this one 4 panel cartoon. Kol Hakavod.
The answer as to why things like this happen is simple: political convenience.
Recognizing the Tuscon shooter as mentally unstable is inconvenient for the Left, because it means losing an opportunity to demonize the Left's enemies as violent, hate-filled lunatics. After all, crazy is as crazy does, and insanity has no political loyalties.
Whitewashing the Ft. Hood shooting, however, of all traces of Islamic religious motivation is in the Left's deepest interests.
Muslims are the Left's sacred cow; they are perfect, all-virtuous, and lacking in any hate, spite, or malice. Muslims must never be questioned, criticized, scrutinized, disagreed with, or denied anything.
Muslims and their religion, to the Left, are the new proletariat, the underclass, and the oppressed, so it is the utmost of evil to not support them.
Recognizing the Ft. Hood attack as a paradigm of Muslim hatred, intolerance, and butchery would make it difficult for the Left to pull the wool over our eyes to believe that Islam is a peaceful religion, and Muslims are the greatest of our species.
Islam: the religion of peace, believe it or they'll kill you.
Well said Bones ! Crazy people and religious fanatics scare me too...Pigmentation has never scared me at all...
Anonymous said, "...Whitewashing the Ft. Hood shooting, however, of all traces of Islamic religious motivation is in the Left's deepest interests." WHY? The nut knew EXACTLY what he was doing. He was not imbalanced in the medical form of the word, but he WAS 100% a radical Islamist. He was scheduled to ship out to the war area and he didn't want more troops going in to kill more Muslims. So he is both a coward (he'd be shipping over, too) and a radical. There is no left or right in your silly game.
The nut in Tuscon is either really missing too many cards to make a full deck. I'd not be surprised if he got NGBRI (not guilty because of insanity) BUT I would to Hashem that he had tried that in Texas...we'd have him strapped down with a needle in his arm so fast that he wouldn't have time to say "ouch."
I've been doing a lot of prayer for Gabby and the rest of the wounded, and for the dead that all will be well with them in the world to come. In particular I've cried a river for that 9 year old. She found out what our democracy is all about. No, I'm not for gun control (my .38 pistol attests to that) but AM for limiting the size of clips. If I can't down someone in two shots, I'm dead anyway.
In Texas you can get a license to carry a concealed weapon. I'm ex-military and hone my skills monthly. I've never shot or shown my weapon in anger and hope it remains like that, but had I been in Tuscon I would have (possibly) been able to stop the massacre.
I love your mind, all you said in four panels would take me ten pages to write.
BTW, I am also afraid of anyone who has a gun and intends to use it to kill for the sake of Allah. Allah is simply G-d in Arabic, not some other G-d. Jews can pray in a mosque because they are monotheistic. We can't pray in churches.
I respect and even love people of other colors. Too bad we've not evolved far enough to recognize that skin color is just that: skin color.
I understand that new evidence now claims that the Ft Hood shooter called out Brozaku Akbar (Prozac is great) as he opened fire.
Yeah, right, my tuches. Psychiatric drugs - smychiatric drugs.
Actually, Beverly, Allah is NOT the God of Israel. Islam is not primarily a religion - it is a political ideology with pretenses of a religion. The Koran teaches ideals that are in direct opposition to the the Bible for the most part. It is the very antithesis of Christianity - a construct of man, inspired by forces of evil.
Again, Allah - who commands his followers to kill the infidel, is NOT God - who tells us to love our enemy. Believe otherwise at your own eternal peril.
There was a man in the vecinity who was armed and had a concealed carry permit,and he went towards the sound of the shooting but the shooter was disarmed by the time he arrived so he assisted the injured.
We are all screwed
92% of America (according to CBS poll) liked Obama's speech
He is the epitome of a leftist and an anti-Israel President if there ever was one!
