It's really important to you that he wasn't influenced by the rampant ballistic metaphors used primarily by the right, isn't it? Purely coincidence. He's a nutball, nothing more. He never watched TV, didn't listen to the news on the radio, never read a paper or magazine, couldn't recognize the names Beck, Palin, Angle, O'Reilly if his life depended on it. He was in his own little bizarre world, completely cut off from any outside influences, absolutely unaffected by the violent, vitriolic HATE spewed for the most part by members of the extreme right, regardless of his apparent violent streak. Nothing he heard or read in the least empowered him to get a gun and take action against a government he felt was evil. Nothing he heard or read about "reloading", "taking aim", "second amendment solutions" ," taking candidates out" caused him to cozy up just a little bit more to the warmth of a weapon.... OK.

I can accept that. No problem.
