So, early last week Katherin Kersten had a column blaming the attack
Edited on Tue Jul-29-08 04:29 PM by dflprincess
on the dad at Valley Fair on rap music (http://ww3.startribune.com/kerstenblog/?p=472) "Monsters who beat dad come straight out of today's culture".

I'm wondering if she'll write a column now blaiming the attack on the Unitarian Church in Tennessee on right wing hate mongers, given that the shooter apparently was fan of Savage and O'Reilly?

(Btw, her blog today is all about how the exclusionary rule is a criminal's best friend and it is wrong to omit illegally obatained evidence.)

1. Her index of editorials on the far right says it all
That is a empty desert of nothingness she writes about.

2. Why don't you write to her blog and ask her?
:evilgrin:

But seriously, it was appalling how all the racists crawled out of the woodwork when they thought that the father who was attacked was white.

3. You have to wonder if she would have written the column had she known the
victimized family wasn't white.

I have toyed with sending her an email - maybe several of us should. :evilgrin:

4. I am up for it
I think it would be quite interesting to see if we get a response from her, either via e-mail or a mention in her column.

Katherine, we know you are reading this...

:hi:

7. Here's her email:

kkersten@startribune.com


I sent her one asking when she'll be treating us to a column telling us that it was inevitable that all the hate the right wing spews would finally lead to something like this. I'll let you know if I get a response.
