[mrjarrell]

NPR is reporting 5 dead and 13 wounded. Looks like their figures are coming from the sheriff.

i think ur bein overrly dramatic

edot

No, I just find it odd that ONE incident can lead to cries of "the sky is falling" and cause all of this name calling and sarcasm, on a website for gun owners.

you all are gonna make me have a seizure with all your different numbers. if you post a number please post your source and the sources source if you know it. maybe then we can get the facts and not media guesses or media hopes.

This probably won't be up long...But it's all the links mentioned, compiled: Jared Lee Loughner Identified As Gabrielle Giffords Shooter (INFO, VIDEOS)

Jeezus!! How did anybody let this guy slip through? He has three names! He has to be a homicidal nut, just like Lee Harvey Oswald, John Wayne Gacy, and John Hinckley Junior (okay... that last one was a bit of a stretch).

and the guy was a loon. i tried to watch that youtube post of his and knew he was nuts in the first few seconds. now the government will try and **** us vets over some more too since they lump us all in together as crazies.

I don't think this creep has been associated with the military in anyway beyond his Myspace page where he refers to himself as a "United States Military recruit at MEPS in Phoenix". Of course that'd be enough for the lamestream media to call him a "military veteran".

His online rantings are pretty good evidence that he is a classic schizophrenic. Guess what age symptoms of schizophrenia generally first make their appearance. Yep... In the early twenties.

2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 It is one of those numbers

 

[gunowner930]

where did you get your numbers of the dead?

CNN.

(CNN) -- A federal judge was killed and a congresswoman gravely wounded Saturday in a shooting outside of a Tucson, Arizona, grocery store, according to police and government officials.
In all, six people died and 12 were wounded in the shooting

This is terrible. I don't know much about Gifford but according to Foxnews the round entered her temple and exited her forehead. So even though she is likely to survive, I hope she can at least live a normal life afterwards, if she is unable to return to congress.

Let's not forgot that at least 4 bystanders were killed, including a 9 year old girl. Was the Federal Judge the target or Gifford?

With this many people killed and wounded. This attack appears to be more like a mass murder and less like a targeted assassination

^just my opinion

im thinking that as well. if it was an assassination attempt then why everyone else including the 9yr old. it just seems like someone else that wanted to go down in the history books. but if that is his myspace page and video, this is a socialist freedom hater. i still think this guy is a few colors short of a full box

guys please i really want this thread to stay open to receive updates, can we please forgo the revolution talk?

I really don't think there was any revolution talk really going on beyond the possiblity of this being organized.

guys please i really want this thread to stay open to receive updates, can we please forgo the revolution talk?

you and firecop done honked me off good

we aint allowed to talk about what he is??? wrong!!!!!!

according to this poster,,,the web chatter says hes a revolutionist crackpot... talking about revolutionists who are in the news aint against no rules,,,since we couldnt discuss these wackos when they get in the news,,,and clearly general politics talks about everyone in the news,,,including revolutionist crackpots...
what he is IS the discussion now...

you trying to say that we cant talk about what the rest of the web is talking about???? wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

heres the first post in this thread about him being a revolutionist,,,and this guy was right---i went out on the web,,,and theres lots of talk about loughners nutty revolutionist ideas...

looks like we've got a revolutionist on our hands.

everyone showing up on google real time is saying he's nuts.

he's not nuts, he knew EXACTLY what he was doing.

the guy wrote about revolution---then he went out and killed people

you can refuse to talk about it while the rest of the web has an adult conversation about him...

i hate when people make a show of rules and try to twist rules to serve their own purposes

 

[revsaxon]

There was some speculation as to a revolutionary twist, but no outright incitement for it...
