I can't get on to his web site. I'm guessing traffic is way up and the server is swamped. Other web sites indicate that he's a former U.S. Navy officer (discharged 1956), and was working as an artist. I also read that his family thinks he's mentally ill. I'm inclined to agree.

He had a genius IQ, but was thrown out of Mensa after a year for not paying his dues. I guess that was the Jew's fault too...

That's not far off the mark. I spend some time at the Hannity forum website and they's a whole lotta hyperventilatin' goin' on over there.

But this poor von Bruun fellow. Just think what he might have accomplished in life if the Jews hadn't been keeping him down.

This kind of thinking runs deep in sectors of America. Hannity is about to lose his mind, along with millions of his acolytes. The breathless, earnest way he reports on what those dang liberals are up to now is just a little scary. Jon Stewart caught the guy in a blatant slanting of the truth regarding Bomba man recently. Can't find it right now, I'll look for it later.

These damn liberals, keeping Hannity down!

Suicide by Museum guard. This guy must have been frustrated that he is so smart and all and still not more respected and successful. The whole idea of Mensa seems just weird to me. I'd like to know that I qualified but am not interested in joining if I did. The whole idea of hating whole ethnic groups is just so irrational to me.

He just wanted to be famous and go down with his boots on I bet.

It is hard to imagine a hate so fierce that at that age he could be capable is such an act.

I heard that around age thirty five most criminals lose most of their agression just due to testosterone levels.

Same thing at Glenn Beck's website, effin kook land on his blog. "Kill the cops first" for example - I wonder if this guy posted that. All the extreme language coming from the Talk Show Screamers is pushing these nutcases over the edge. That report was right on the money, the combination of a black president, a lousy economy, the failure and collapse of their political ideology, their inability to start a Gestapo-style anti-immigration solution has concocted a fertile environment for right wing violence. The continual portrayal of legally elected leaders as enemies worthy of death by Hannity et al means nothing but more of this, and not a word of "cool your jets" leadership from the new RNC, R.ush, N.ewt and C.heney. Funny, Newt was stirring the pot when the last act of mass murder from a typical talk radio listener, Tim McVeigh, went down.

A cop shot in the head ain't exactly a conspiracy, pal.

Rev. Jeremiah Wright Says Jews Are Preventing Obama From Talking to Him

Quote:
Them Jews ain't going to let him talk to me .... He's got to do what politicians do. And the Jewish vote, the AIPAC vote that's controlling him, that will not let him send representation to the Darfur Review Conference, that's talking this craziness on Israel because they're Zionists, they will not let him talk to somebody who calls a spade what it is. Ethnic cleansing is going on in Gaza—the ethnic cleansing of the Zionists is a sin and a crime against humanity.

What a knucklehead Wright is. Why would Obama have spent so much time with a guy like that? What value does he offer?

I had Limbaugh on the radio a few minutes ago. He's working hard to make sure everyone understands that it is the Democrats and the DHS who are the ones spreading the hate in this situation and that this shooter was not influenced in any way by right wing hate speech. Limbaugh's "logic" was up to it's normal lofty standards but my main reaction was that he was protesting a little too much.

White supremist thought patterns are so far beyond what you would get on normal talk radio, it would almost seem like something from another planet. This guy would have hated Rush since Rush's call screener "Bo" Snerdly is black... These guys are in a world of hate so strong that you would be sickened by what you would hear.

BTW, if he died, good riddance. If not, lets hope that he does. MENSA membership doesnt preclude you from being a beast.....

as much as i despise the right wing talk shows and tv, i think you can't really blame them for all this. no one would be that easily prompted to go shoot and kill, just from listening and watching. the media might be the proverbial "straw that breaks the camel's back", but it's kind of hard to prove. these last two shooters both seem like whack jobs; both these clowns have records going back a long way - the kansas guy at least ten, twelve years, and the d.c. guy back to the early '80's.

they are beyond the scope of talk radio.....one would need to sift through the hate sites on the internet to find what these guys were into...

Should we take preemptive action and simply export the right wingers out of the country or maybe to a concentration camp for re-education? Seems like everything is the right-wing's fault so maybe the left should be the only one around to keep an eye on things. I'll bet that the world will be peaceful after that. Thank (insert deity here) for the sanity of the left wingers or the world would have split into two already.
