Colo. Gov. Blames Shooting on ‘Inflammatory Rhetoric’ from Bloggers, Talk Radio
Grabien ^ | November 29, 2015

KEILAR: "I do want to ask you a final question here. Planned Parenthood, almost immediately, even before we exactly knew the facts or anything about the motivation here. We now know that the shooter referenced 'baby parts' when he was arrested. Planned Parenthood is calling this domestic terrorism. Do you agree with that assessment?"

HICKENLOOPER: "Certainly it's a form of terrorism, and maybe in some way it's a function of the inflammatory rhetoric we see on all - so many issues now, there are bloggers and talk shows where they really focus on trying to get people to that point of boiling over. Just intense anger. Maybe it's time to look at how do we tone down that rhetoric. No one is going to try to reduce free speech in that country but that rhetoric - if people are in some way emotionally unstable or psychologically unbalanced, that intensity of rhetoric sometimes seems to pull a trigger in their brain that they lose contact with what reality is."

According to Colorado Gov. Chicken-Pooper, it was stress of being self-identified as a woman combined with inflammatory rhetoric from people like you Freepers that set this nice lunatic off.

Did the guy have electricity? Did he own a radio or a television?

This is shameful politicizing of a criminal act. Shame shame shame!

It couldnt possibly be the actions of Planned Parenthood killing babies and selling their parts that inflamed the shooter. Instead blame the people who condemned Planned parenthood’s outrageous behavior.

The left can use all the inflammatory rhetoric they want with supposedly no ill effects whatsoever. But let the right just make their case for their positions and left claims it is hate, or inflammatory, or any other thing to get them silenced. The left is at war with the First Amendment.

He's wrong. It's Ted Cruz's fault. Daily Kos and other liberal loons said so.

Funny how it works.

When a Muzzie shoots something up or knifes someone, etc., it is NOT terrorism and has nothing to do with Islam.

But let an utter whackjob white trash shoot someone at a Planned Parenthood mill, it IS terrorism and it is the fault of guns and talk radio...

The liberals perpetuate this idea of gender confusion and they are chopping up babies so whose fault is it really?

If we use their logic, presenting gun violence and condemning it just begets hate and violence against the thugs who carry guns.

Noticing that makes you a right wing radical, racist, homophobic, misogynistic tool of rich capitalists.

Move over.

I would love to hear Trump say what you just posted at his next rally.

No wonder Trump keeps moving up in the polls. The idiots in the MSM keep helping him and they don't even know it. Progressiveism is truly a mental disease.

The only thing I’ve been reading into these kinds of stories is this:

The gun control laws passed by Colorado’s elected democrats in 2013 after Sandy Hook, while they completely ignored the majority of constituents demanding that they NOT pass them, didn’t stop these shootings.

IOW, gun control makes things WORSE.

YOU passed those laws, Governor...
Why didn’t THEY stop these shootings?!?!
