BREAKING: Rep Giffords (D-AZ) shot in head point-blank

Too bad she wasn't MY congress-person... I would have voted for her again.

She's also a motorcycle owner and pro-gun advocate... Who knew?

Comparing car accidents to someone pulling out a gun and targeting and shooting a specific person seems a bit off to me.

I think what a lot of people are upset about is the rhetoric and the violent insinuations that have become a norm in the political dialog have finally produced a result, like many predicted they would when they were being thrown around so carelessly. This guy clearly shows that it doesn't matter what your political leanings are, if you are mentally ill, the messages can have a profound effect on you and push you into a dangerous mental condition where you cannot recognize reality.
When this happened yesterday, both sides were frantically trying to find a tie between the shooter his political posture, not to try to figure out why he did this, but in order to prove their point of the danger of the "other" side. It seems to me that we have really gotten into an ugly place in this country and sadly, this board has completely shown that it is part of the problem. The name calling, the insults, the demonizing of someone's beliefs, the boasting, the braggado...all of these are not helping the country that we all obviously love. It is hurting it. After yesterday, the bile that is spewed out in the name of politics these day turned deadly. Where will we go from here as a nation after yesterday? Down the hateful road to ruin or will we lift ourselves up and stop the hateful rhetoric and concentrate on the issues at hand like we should? Personally, I hope that we lift ourselves up and come together and don't wait until it is questionable whether we can come back from the brink.

You was pointed at me. "You" posted immediately after my post. You is you. I was posting at the time; therefore, "none of you" was me. Gotcha?

Why didn't you specifically call out the carpet sniffing libtard on her abhorred posts? Are your glasses so rose colored that they are frosted?

Looney Jerk's ideal candidate?

A lesbian with a Masters in Renewable Energy, a government employee, has a collection of strap ons, drives a Subaru and looks like K.D. Lang.

...oops, that's her ideal date.

Again, it was a general "none of you" what part of that is so hard for you to understand? Perhaps you realize that you were out of line since you took it personally.

Gifford and the victims are not martyrs from politics. Today's political tone is good for America. It's the only thing that is going to flush the BS from the left and cancer of socialism.

The whack job didn't get his proper mental treatment. It appears the knucklehead had some issues.

Thanks for proving my point...

You made no point, you made a commentary. If you want tamed politics and no rhetoric go to North Korea or Iran and speak out about the government. Politics in America today needs to be heated. The Marxian Socialist government has literally crippled this nation. This government is the problem not the solution. Until they get out of the markets, our lives, and our pockets I expect the rhetoric to continue.

He proves your point with every post... That's why I keep him on Ignore... If I want mental flatulence, I'll go to a Tea Party meeting.

Are you asking for an instruction in the proper usage of the word "none?" The phrase "none of you" is ambiguous. The proper use would have been "not one poster" or "not any of the posters."
