Damn Tea Partiers.

Oh, wait. If the shooter was a Tea Partier or a Dittohead or a Beckerhead or was in any way, shape, or form even the least bit associated with any right-wing person or institution, they'd let us know.

Must not have been a Glock or AK-47, or they would have said so. Probably somebody with a pocketgun.

From the article.
“The gunman remains at large.”

I bet its a short medium at large.
