DHS Memo Suggests Shooter May Be Linked To Racist Organization
Fox News ^ | January 09, 2011 | Jennifer Griffin

Posted on 01/09/2011 7:56:53 AM PST by winoneforthegipper

According to a memo obtained by Fox News with information compiled by the Department of Homeland Security and released to state law enforcement officials, Jared Loughner, the alleged shooter of Congressman Gabrielle Giffords, may have been influenced by a pro-white racist organization that publishes an anti-immigration newsletter.

No direct connection, but strong suspicion is being direceted at American Renaissance, an organization that Loughner mentioned in some of his internet postings and federal law enforcement officials are investigating Loughner's possible links to the organization. The organization is a monthly publication that promotes a variety of white racial positions.

Further, the suspect's mother works for the Pime County Board of Supervisors.

That’s what this shooter appears to be. An anarchist. That’s a long way from the TEA Party. He’s closer to the DNC, La Raza and immigrant “advocacy” groups.

AmRen is not welcome on FR, hasn’t been for some time. Please restrict posts about AmRen to their responses to the allegation that the perp was one of them. Thanks.

If the memo is a legit DHS memo, it looks like the gov’t B.S. set-up of the Tea Party is beginning.

sorry, I thought people should look at it for clues before it got scrubbed.

DHS is so totally incompetent that they can not be believed about anything.

I would like to see where he linked to them and in what context.

Why aren’t they talking about his Communists links???

If he was a member of the DailyKOS or DU, you can rest assured they have been scrubbing THAT evidence.

Ah, but FReepers, ever vigilant, have grabbed screen shots for posterity.

Too late for the lefties to cover that up. :)

You can post about the AmRen response to the allegation on Fox (to help keep the story straight), just please don’t post a link to their website, as American Renaissance has been blocked at FR for some time due to their racist tendencies.

"...shooter of Congressman Gabrielle Giffords, may have been influenced by a pro-white racist organization that publishes an anti-immigration newsletter."

If he's so "pro-white", why was it that he only targeted, and shot, white people?

I guess that means you also should not link to La raza or to the Black Congressional caucus - or Al Sharpton’s group, Jesse Jackson’s group, etc.

Don’t blame you—no need to invite racist associations even though I am all in favor of free association—still the Leftist opposition will always accentuate the tiny negatives and spike the gigantic positives of any freedom promoting public forum.

Years back when we were debating the Confederate Flag over the Capital Dome, AMREM got involved UNFORTUNATELY on the side that saw heritage and not hate in the old battle flag.

Their help was not wanted but it was too late and the race hustlers had already tied us to them and other groups so we knew we couldn’t win.

If the Youtube article linked on Drudge yesterday was legit, it seems the shooter is psychotic and totally out of it. Schizophrenia is horrible and I really resent the Kos and other liberal rags blaming the tea party, etc, before they had any facts.
AM I surprised, NO. For those of you who have never been on the Huffington Post, it is really eye opening. The level of hate seen is really scary.

DHS is just trying to cover their butt
when they tarred all political organizations as potential domestic terrorists.

Liberals (and their hatchet men like DHS and sheriff)
have to have someone convenient to blame.

Whatever happened to see something, say something? by DHS
I guess that failed here.

This loon gave numerous red flags and I believe he is closer
to the VA Tech mass murderer.
Why didn’t his parents take him to a psychiatrist? Why wasn’t
his behaviour flagged?

Here they are talking about the posts concerning the bird that is on his shoulder in the video.

http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread648543/pg1

I laughed and laughed at this comment

“Not to discourage your investigation...

But it seems like one of you wants there to be some sort of crazy scaled bird that came from a meteor that is also responsible for the mass bird deaths and inspiring a person to kill mass people????

Not to say your going down the wrong path but....”
