I don't think he was mentally capable of being either.

4. Bullshit

[tabasco]

5. Hahahahahahahahaha!

Great day to ID the turfers.

[readmoreoften]

6. Just goes to show how meaningless the term has become.

[ecstatic]

7. If the shooter was paid or coerced into the shootings,

then his personal beliefs are pretty much irrelevant. I doubt he was a "leftist" though. :shrug:

8. And her definition of "liberal" is?

:shrug:

Without expanding on any of his political views, tossing around any labels, be they "liberal" or "right wing" is unhelpful.

9. "Possible." Since when did that, like the question mark, become NEWS? nt

12. BS.

total BS.

13. I know this type of kid. I knew some in school.

they fancy themselves as intellectuals. They read books like Communist Manifesto and Mein Kampf as a rebellion against society and come back with comments like "I understand it, it explains my angst... I'm a communist (or Nazi)"

They attempt to place their own view of the world as being "above modern society"

There's a "coolness" to being a high school "communist" and "intellectual"

He's basically FINCH from American Pie.

[ScreamingMeemie]

14. I think he is basically a disturbed individual who needed help

and did not get any.

15. What a crock.

[B Calm]

16. Possible friend is a right-wing nutcase. Now we have two threads

on this stupid right-wing nutcase spinning like a top!

[lifesbeautifulmagic]

17. "possible" friend who self describes herself

as conservative and has not talked to him since 2007. I call bs

[Initech]

18. And his favorite books are Mein Kampf and Communist Manifesto.

I bet The Reich-wing just got a massive boner over this.

19. Oh for fuck's sake -

Possible Friend of dkf says he is a pedophile.

[ingac70]

20. Then why can't she spell his last name? n/t

[LAGC]

21. That IS how it's spelled. Check his Youtube videos. (n/t)

[toddwv]

22. No, she got his last name wrong.

She twitted that she had to look it up in a yearbook.

[LAGC]

24. My bad, I misread it. I thought she had spelled it "Loughner" the first time. (n/t)

[ingac70]

23. His youtube channel says Loughner...

she says Laughner. Which is it?
