While the debate rages on about Jared's political ties
there can be no doubt that he is ideologically aligned with Ron Paul and his followers.
Is the media ready to declare Paul and friends "mentally deranged" for their wacko beliefs?

1. The Media is the catapult..
There are many people that say all sorts of radical things, but it is the Media that is responsible for showcasing those people and their "2nd Amendment Remedies"...If there was not such a demand for "ratings" maybe such toxic speech would never be aired..

2. Ron Paul is politically deranged and idiotic in my opinion...
However, your statement that "there can be no doubt that he is ideologically aligned with Ron Paul and his followers" is completely bogus.

You have no idea what Loughner's political beliefs are. While I think the Paulbots are mostly dreamers and completely naive, I am quite sure none would read Loughner's insane rants and agree with them.

I doubt very much that Loughner's politics, such that you could find a way to describe them or assign them to the right or left, had very much to do with this assassination attempt. The kid appears to be completely insane - possibly a paranoid schizophrenic.

3. Even if they figure out his political ties, do you really think the corporate owned media in this
country will tell us? I have my doubts. If they do, I am certain it will be sugar coated brought up with examples of extremists on the left.

At least we have Sheriff Dupnik that is not afraid to speak truth to power.

4. Loughner is so mentally deranged, that when taken into custody
he knew the lst rule in protecting himself and used it.
Keep your mouth shut and do not talk to authorities.

Any person who kills others is suffering mental instablity
at the time of the act.

C'm on folks, Just as over use of TV Games have been shown
to affect children's behavior--hateful political rhetoric
can influence certain personalities for the worse.

Last night it was obvious the Fox Talking Point was "deranged".
in an attempt to distance him from anything Republican.

They Republicans Fox et all are fighting to be abele
to continue their hate speech. This is what is at the
bottom of all the broohaahaa. Yesterday on one of the
Sunday Shows two House Members--Franks and Labrador stated
as much. "you cannot use this (incident) to stop us"

The fight right now is to permit the Republicans to continue
their meanspirited speech. Do not miss the forest for
the trees.

5. Good points
In any case we need to send a message, mostly to the medias that give hate speech public display, that we are sick and tired of the verbal attacks and the constant spread of lies.
