"Hate You!" = No Guns? =Speech Police?

Huffington Post: "On Saturday Pima County Sheriff Clarence Dupnik called Arizona "the Mecca for prejudice and bigotry." Today the sheriff continued on the same theme:

"I think that when the rhetoric about hatred, about mistrust of government, about paranoia of how government operates and to try to inflame the public on a daily basis, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, has impact on people especially who are unbalanced personalities to begin with."

He also called his state "the tombstone of the United States of America."


REPORTER: What are your observations about the state of Arizona gun laws in light of what happened?

DUPNIK: Well, I think we're the tombstone of the United States of America.... I have never been a proponent of letting everybody in this state carry weapons under any circumstances that they want, and that's almost where we are. "


This is just what we need...a dweeb on YouTube, overlooked....taking his rhetoric to the public in the form of guns and killing. I feel like I am chiming in late, but I wanted to see what would be said about these very tragic shootings. An attack on the 2nd Amendment is not what is needed as a result of this weekend; nor the First Amendment. We certainly do not need the Fairness Act!

The above snippet from the HP is what I feared. As I glean and understand, the shooter was a leftist, Marxist leaning individual with some weird ideas...though they are not out of reach. America is disintegrating into a socialist nation. People like Jared Lee Loughner incite this terrible stuff. This boy shot people that are totally opposite from what he stated he read and thus believed.

Why is this being directed to the Tea Party? The Tea Party is for small government not anti-government. The Tea Party is for a strong Dollar not new currency. The Tea Party is for Liberty and the American ideals that have roots back to the Magna Carta and the Biblical appeal for equality among mankind. The Tea Party is for self-government, responsibility and work ethic...not anarchy and shooting someone.

Do not be fooled. Know your history. My daughter is reading about the American Revolution - we fought against Great Britain and many of the oppressions that we are beginning to see today. If our elected officials would act on behalf of the American Peoples' desires....I doubt the shooting would have happened. Further, if we believed what the Colonists believed and fought to save in the American Revolution, then we would be a much stronger unified country.

We need solid, Constitutionally conservative, Christian, morally based, principle approach persons making tough, unpopular, serious, non-poll based decisions. If this would happen, English would be the official language, immigration would be controlled correctly, deficits would be addressed, the budget would be put into check, the President would not implement a budget with over 3 Trillion in spending, our national security would be solid, military stronger, education more superior to any country, and .... our political and economic status would not be such that these shootings would have happened.

That is the plain truth.
