Breaking: Tucson Tea Party Leader Threatened At ABC Taping, Audience Member Screams: Trent Humphries Youre Dead!
While Trent was speaking at the event, an audience member screamed, Trent Humphries, youre dead!
ABC News held a town hall event today in Tucson, Arizona. Local officials, friends and heroes were at the event. News anchor Christiane Amanpour was the host. The segment will air tomorrow. ABC gathered members from the Tucson community to discuss the tragic shooting last Saturday that wounded Rep. Gabrielle Giffords and left 6 people dead.
State Representative Terri Proud was at the event sitting between Trent and the violent audience member. Terri was there to speak about the local gun laws. She described the scene to me just minutes ago:
Trent Humphries, the Pima County tea party leader, stood up to speak during the event. He was being very respectful. Trent told the audience that before we start placing blame on individuals we need to get all the facts. Trent then told everyone that one of those killed during the shooting was his neighbor and that he was affected like everyone else by the tragedy
While Trent was speaking- And it was planned that he would speak- One member in the audience and reportedly one of the victims of the tragedy started screaming, Trent Humphries youre dead! The police immediately escorted him out. On his way out he screamed, Youre all whores.

ABC News might not even show it.
No biggie.
Its not like threats against members of Congress is newsworthy or anything.

On his way out he screamed, Youre all whores. I wonder if he was shouting at Amanpour.

Look for leftie pundits and the MSM (I know, I know - they're the same thing) to blame this on the Tea Party. They'll say something like "You guys started this", or "What do you expect in this climate of hate?"
Feel free to fill in the blanks. We all know their templates by now.

Actually, if he was one of the people shot, I bet they play it up, from the point of view he is justified.

Obviously the poor man was suffering from delayed
stress and the thought of conservatives going
unpunished for their transgressions against
humanity was just too much for him./S
Wonder if he shared any classes with Jared?

“You're all whores.” Why did he single out Ms. Amanpour? I thought she was only a B and not a whore. Before I decide I need to hear the opinions of Sheriff Dipshit and view the footage tomorrow on ABC This Week.

Trent Humphries, youre dead!
I’m not dead.
Yes, you are.
I am not.
Well, you will be soon, you’re very ill.
I’m getting better.
No you’re not, you’ll be stone dead in a moment.
To: avg_freeper
This may have broken on Fox News, but they sure buried who the perp was, very deep in the story.
You’d think it was newsworthy that the perp was one of the shooting victims—the one who blamed the shootings on Palin, Beck, and Rush. But you’d have to read this news release very carefully even to suspect that.

Fuller, who works as a signature collector for political initiatives, was about 10 to 15 feet away from Giffords, talking to her volunteers, when the shots erupted on Jan. 8. He said earlier this week he was hit by a bullet when he dove to the ground to play dead. He decided that because he didn't have any medical training to help others, he walked to his car and drove himself to the nearest hospital. You know - that is weired: he was shot, decided he couldn't do anything to help others, and drove himself to the hospital ??? With a gun shot wound ?
To: I still care
Actually, if he was one of the people shot, I bet they play it up, from the point of view he is justified.That's exactly what they're doing at DU right now.
To: micmac
He is more than a moron.

Well FOX has footage of Fuller at the shooters house. Some BS about healing with them.
If Fox tries to bury this they need to be called on it.
