Journal Captain Splendid's Journal: Fuck you Gabrielle Giffords 41
Slowing Slashdot down to a crawl, you insensitive bitch.
Question: Since Sheriff Dupnik didn't single out any individuals, organizations or even ideologies in his remarks, why are all the right-wingers denouncing him for 'politicizing' the event? Methinks they doth protest too much.

Slow? (Score:2)
I didn't notice it being slow. Maybe it is just you, or somewhere along the route your packets take.
One of the right-wing's most effective tools the past couple of years has been excessive anger, vitriol and righteous indignation.
While articulate Tea Partiers exist, the aren't the ones showing up in droves to rallies and events. The ones showing up aren't the ones you want to represent you in an articulate, intelligent dialog since they'd be essentially unarmed.
So you really think that's appropriate? (Score:2)
Considering that the Nation is still healing from the wounds inflicted by yet another in a long line of liberal gunmen, do you think that you should lower the vitriol?
After all - you sound like James Loughner right now.

Why would Ms Palin scrub her ugly rifle-sight map targeting Rep Gifford if not because she knew it was wrong. One does not scrub a map with "surveyors' symbols" on it, after all.

It did more than just wake him up. He woke up and started a new foes list - with me and only me on it. He then started writing journal entries with "no foes" selected. Which means that every journal entry he has written since his return, he has specifically chosen to silence my responses to.
Previously I had power over Pudge (the real conservative). He left and now I find that I have power over RG (the fake conservative).

This guy posted, it's almost textbook schizophrenic ranting, and whatever he happened to latch on for his justification is quite irrelevant.
Trying to impute political motivations on it tells me a lot more about the biases of the one doing the imputing than it does about the killer. Psychotic behavior can be found across the entire political spectrum, and no group, left-right-up-down-back-forward, has a monopoly on it.

That may the the single most insightful comment posted here on slashdot of the entire matter.
Unfortunately, hardly anyone is looking for insight.
Methinks they doth protest too much. (Score:2)
"doth" is the 3rd person singular conjugation of "do". Thus, it is "Methinks the lady/she/he doth protest too much." The informal 2nd person singular is "dost", thus "Methinks thou dost protest too much." All other conjugations are as in modern English, thus "Methinks they do protest too much".
