If only they would have outlawed guns.


Does every crazy person have to be labeled with some group or some issue?

Come on dude, you're not new here

As per the ORIGINAL title of this thread (now changed) -

I read the article, I saw no information that says he was a "left winger"...not that it even matters, if he were.

Here's the only description, from the article you linked, of the assailant:

"The 24-year-old college dropout, who has a history of psychiatric disorders, agreed in August to a plea bargain that spared him the death penalty."

Are all anti-government extremists like Loughner leftwingers???

Seems to me the title of this thread is a bit misleading...

Shocking, I know...

Couldn't possibly be a leftie...everybody knows they don't have guns.

Screw Gabby Giffords, is she worth more than the 9 year old child or anyone else that was killed? Loughner was a flag burning, drug using anti American leftist pos that should have been executed when arrested by the cops.

It wasn't for a lack of trying.....how quickly we forget, but the interweb never forgets!

of course the article didn't mention that. don't you pay attention? Anything bad done by a librat, no political affiliation mentioned (if at all possible). Anything done by a person of unverified political affiliation, blame the TEA Party, then when proven wrong, do not retract or apologize, simply move on to the next lie.

He accepted a plea bargain that ensures he will serve life in prison without the possibility of parole.

There's always a plea bargain to save a murderer's life. Unfortunately, the 6 dead couldn't accept a plea bargain from this worthless pos.

yep. he should have had his day in court, say his piece, let the victims' families say their piece, then take him out back and put 2 in his skull.

in cases like this, how is a "life sentence" justice?
