Knoxville Shooter's "Manifesto" Released

Well...nice to know what we're up against. From the "Manifesto" of Jim Adkisson (whom you may more easily remember as last summer's Knoxville, Tennessee UU Church shooter) - which he intended as a suicide note - we now have official confirmation that indeed, the ravings of Limbaugh, Hannity, Goldberg and others have had their intended effect:
Know this if nothing else: This was a hate crime. I hate the damn left-wing liberals. There is a vast left-wing conspiracy in this country & these liberals are working together to attack every decent & honorable institution in the nation, trying to turn this country into a communist state. Shame on them....

and....
This was a symbolic killing. Who I wanted to kill was every Democrat in the Senate & House, the 100 people in Bernard Goldberg's book. I'd like to kill everyone in the mainstream media. But I know those people were inaccessible to me. I couldn't get to the generals & high ranking officers of the Marxist movement so I went after the foot soldiers, the chickens--t liberals that vote in these traitorous people. Someone had to get the ball rolling. I volunteered. I hope others do the same. It's the only way we can rid America of this cancerous pestilence.

and finally, for the coup-de-gross of wingnuttery, try this on for size:
I thought I'd do something good for this Country Kill Democrats til the cops kill me....Liberals are a pest like termites. Millions of them Each little bite contributes to the downfall of this great nation. The only way we can rid ourselves of this evil is to kill them in the streets. Kill them where they gather. I'd like to encourage other like minded people to do what I've done. If life aint worth living anymore don't just kill yourself. do something for your Country before you go. Go Kill Liberals.


Like I said, if nothing else, it's at least good to have confirmation that the "leader of the Republican party" (Limbaugh) and his cohorts-in-incitement like Hannity and Coulter are really having the effect we suspected all along that they were having.

Thank goodness he's put away for life without parole.
Sadly people listen to these hateful programs & take these twisted ideas seriously.

>"They showed he planned the attack on the church, where his ex-wife was once a member, because he hated the church’s liberal politics and Democrats, whom he believed "were responsible for his woes."

The Unitarian Universalist church promotes progressive social work, including advocacy of women and gay rights."<

One could stretch the ravings of a mentally ill person for political purposes except for one small detail, he did his shooting at people in a church, not the home ground of liberals or most Democrats.

Read his actual words in his own handwriting.
