3. White Supremacist Buford O. Furrow, Jr. and the Los Angeles Jewish Community Center shooting
Tue Nov 26, 2013, 12:07 AM

Conservative Gun Nut. Registered Republican.

The 1999 Los Angeles Jewish Community Center shooting occurred on August 10, 1999, at around 10:50 a.m. local time, when white supremacist Buford O. Furrow, Jr. walked into the lobby of the North Valley Jewish Community Center in Granada Hills and opened fire with a semiautomatic weapon, firing 70 shots into the complex. The gunfire wounded five people: three children, a teenage counselor, and an office worker. Shortly thereafter, Furrow murdered a mail carrier, fled the state, and finally surrendered to authorities.

I have heard this so many times from Republicans "Nazi's were socialists." Ya, and the Republican's are "Grand."

Just because someone claims to be something does not mean that they are what they claim.

Shows they were socialists is "So you also believe that the Democratic People's Republic of Korea is a democracy." When they start sputtering, I say, "It's exactly the same argument."

and his facts are all wrong. Well, that's what happens when you make "stuff" up. And no...After watching him once, it was enough to pass judgement on his so called info entertainment program.

brothers are "non-political" and not trying to influence US government, I realized he's just a different flavor of RW shill who, in the end, is accomplishing the core mission of misdirecting people from what's really causing the problems in this country with his fantastical bullshit.

in Austin during the late 90s. After I left the city, I figured that I'd heard the last of Jones because he was just a local central Texas nutjob. I was shocked when people that I knew inNew York starting talking about listening to his show online. It's extremely disturbing to me that this guy has managed to cobble together an international following.
