Shooting at the Family Research Council: Hate from the Left
Washington Times Communities ^ | Aug 17 2012 | Bob Siegel

Do not expect to see a lot of media pundits talk about the extreme left-wing politics of Floyd L. Corkins II. After all, today’s journalism doesn’t believe in an extreme left wing. You see, there’s the right wing on one side; the other side espouses moderate, sophisticated common-sense ideas, which any thinking person will embrace.

In cases where a gunman doesn’t have even a fringe right-wing group on his resume, people like ABC News reporter Brian Ross still plow ahead to quickly report that a certain James Holmes, (same name as the Colorado movie theater shooter) was a member of the Colorado Tea Party. ..

And who can forget New York Times columnist Paul Krugman, who wrote regarding last year’s Arizona shooting which killed several people and wounded Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords: “It is facile and mistaken to attribute this particular madman's act directly to Republicans or Tea Party members. But it is legitimate to hold Republicans and particularly their most virulent supporters in the media responsible for the gale of anger that has produced the vast majority of these threats, setting the nation on edge.”

Don’t expect Krugman to write a sequel editorial, suggesting that groups like Human Rights Campaign or Southern Poverty Law Center are responsible for a “gale of anger that produces the vast majority of threats,” even though both organizations have labeled Family Research Council a “hate group.” ...

Why is the origin of blame so clear in one case and not with another?...

Gaystopo!

This is the same viscous mob that ran the femi-nazi sexual harassment witch huts against heterosexual men and Republicans leading up to the unfortunate incident involving BJ Clinton and his intern Monica.

They also got corporations and schools to introduce twisted femi-nazi re-education seminars for employees and demanded discrimination against boys and men in employment and education. They have been very sucessful with harming this generation of boys in education and life.

Hey Scott,

Why are you and others still using the “old fashion” thing called common sense and logic in dealing with the Far Left?

Keep saying this over and over and over: A Liberal means you never have to accept responsibility for ones actions, never have to apologize-even when one is absolutely and undeniably wrong, never have to show proof when making false allegations against a republican or conservative, can always call someone they disagree with a racist or a bigot, and so on.
