Jim Adkisson took his conservative beliefs to the max by entering a church in Tennessee and opening fire.

Before, people were speculating on what he MIGHT have been thinking. Now we have his actual words. It's like saying it's more relevant to speculate about a court case but if any evidence or ruling comes down, no one's allowed to talk about it any more (because they speculated about it before so that's enough).

If you think Fact = Speculation, go right ahead (though it sure explains a lot ;o). I believe this letter being released to the public makes the discussion MORE relevant than before....Not less.....Despite the fact that much of the speculation now proves to have been correct (that the guy's thoughts that drove him to seek out and murder liberals mirrors the rhetoric frequently expressed in hugely popular right wing media figures and resonates so well with their loyal fans).

I have a feeling that if that speculation had been wrong, you would have been only too happy to talk about it.

I can't "show you", just like you can't "show" >>> your evidence of a mainstream right-wing pundit exhorting conservatives to violence.


But if you've read my post (and the links in it)....you'd know that's not the point I'm making.

Forgive me if I'm wrong....but weren't YOU the one who posted the definition of hypocrisy?

Personally, I've never found calls to assassinate, bomb, poison, kill or physically harm, ether specific individuals or a group (no matter WHO they are) particularly amusing.

I wouldn't mind seeing someone post some equivalent thoughts coming out of the left wing media (from those who have a huge following like the people I quoted) or politicians. It took me only a few minutes to find mine, so it would be nice if some people who are claiming the other side routinely threatens people's lives too, back that up with some evidence. If it's as wides spread as y'all ore claiming, it shouldn't take too long.

I wonder....maybe this guy wasn't really crazy after all....he just lacked a sense of humour.

This is a long thread so you might have missed this.

Could it be, that their ratings are so low is because Left wingers are intelligent enough to NOT listen to their garbage and their hatred because we aren't like that?

Well that proves it....EVEYRONE knows that all us Liberals are gay LOL.....but seriously folks, we were asking for examples of calls to violent acts from popular left-wing MEDIA sources (or from leaders/politicians themselves).

Now, if a radio announcer or author with a massive following among the left had advocated these attacks (either seriously, or in the form of "jokes" *wink wink*)....Then you'd have a case. Until then however......
