FLASHBACK: Arkansas Democratic chairman killed in shooting
Edited on Sun Jan-09-11 12:35 AM by gatorboy
Bipartisan issue my ass. The more you dig the more you realize that the only victims of these political attacks are Democrats. And conservatives have the audacity to consantly act the victims...

The chairman of the Arkansas Democratic Party died Wednesday, about four hours after a shooting at the party's headquarters, police said.


Police block off the streets surrounding the state Democratic Party headquarters Wednesday in Little Rock.

Chairman Bill Gwatney died at 3:59 Wednesday afternoon after a gunman entered his Little Rock office and shot him several times in the upper body, Little Rock Police Lt. Terry Hastings said.

Authorities confirmed the news shortly after former President Clinton and Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton released a statement expressing their condolences.

2. Not sure that was political at all
None of his erratic statements mentioned evil libruls. Apparently he had some kind of workmen's comp claim for a badly fractured skull. That can cause drastic personality changes.

3. respectfully very much disagree. The guy was mad at the
government, and if so, he could have gone after a repub, or a government worker.

But he went after a dem. They ALWAYS go for the Dem's, always, its always a democrat. Always.

Sick, sick, sick and tired of this shit, and the media refrain that "it doesn't appear to be politically motivated"

5. I've looked over the quotes, and haven't found any about government
He quit a job at Target and was in a rage about hallways being too narrow, among other stuff. Did he have anything on the web like our current wingnut of the hour?
