re: #213 ralphieboy

This sounds like a similar story with Loughner - he was a maniac and simply responded to any sort of ideology or philosophy that appealed to his warped world-view.

Makes it nearly impossible to pin a label on him, and makes it even easier for those who associate violence, right or left-wing, to distance themselves from his actions.

Not in the least. Loughner’s writing is incoherent, his logic pitiful.

This guy reached the logical conclusion of the arguments made by the anti-Jihadi right wing. If this is a struggle of civilizations, if liberals are traitors, if there is no compromise, then what he did makes perfect sense.

And that is what these assholes have been claiming, for years, now.
