One should never let the facts get in the way when exploiting a tragedy for political gain.  And EVERY tragedy should be exploited for political gain.

It appears that "Lefty" Dupnik is doing the fast-hustle now because he had been warned about the shooter several weeks ago and failed to take any action.  Now, he must blame the entire right wing of the political spectrum to eliminate public scrutinyof his inaction.

Since it is now also being reported that among the shooter's favored reading material was both The Communist Manifesto and Mein Kampf, I think we can reasonably ascertain that he was a cerrtifiable nutter with wildly scrambled political ideologies.

Lastly, I just read that the shooter had a confrontation with the congresswoman in 2007, three years before Palin's map was even the inkling of an idea.  His hatred apparently ran deep and long.

Even at a ball game, when someone talks during the anthem or doesn’t take off his hat, it pisses me off. I’m not one to be quiet about it, either.”  Chris Kyle

Sheriffs are elected officials, a politician in a uniform.

I wonder if any of his "staff" is telling him to just STFU. He making the local LEO's look like clowns, and should have retired years ago.

Perhaps watching an episode of Dragnet, would provide a tutorial to what LE should provide at a press conference or interview.

Just the facts, not your unsubstantiated "opinion"....



Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."
Col. Jeff Cooper.

This Sheriff is a bag.....filled with douche.....aka a douche-bag!

The fact he has read both of those books doesn't indicate any such thing, first off, both, along with the Federalist papers are basic to political science, secondly there is not that much actual difference between the theories expressed in the 2. Some thing you would know if you had actually waded through them.
This is where FQ is dead wrong about Ann Coulter, even if you don't agree with her, at least her books are readable.

from what I have seen of him 

he seems like a complete arse clown
Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them, disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them. The only thing you can’t do is ignore them

Reading them both is valuable for the lessons they teach.  Having them as favored reading material changes the perspective.  Certifiable nutter remains an apt description.

And yes, Tom, they are tough to read through.  And, you are right that the two philosophical perspectives get pretty ideologically close when taken to their extremes.  And, neither Marx nor Hitler were worth a look (ugly, old, and male).  Ann Coulter is hot.  And that's where FQ misses out.

True, but that's not where I was going   ;D Hitler and Marx wrote long winded political rants that were meant to be shouted from a lectern, like Castro's speeches. They are not meant to be "read", they are meant to pummel your brain into submission.
Ann Coulture  writes books that through the use of wit and sarcasm are meant to keep the reader entertained long enough to get her point across.
As to the 2 ideologies the difference is in the focus "Communism" is "international" socialism, focused on a world wide scale, while the Nazi's intent was to apply the socialistic principles only to one nation.
