          Yup. From a conservative Republican Mormon family raised in the gun culture.

          Welp… there it is.

            You are ruining his non-point! If it helps, remember, conservatives don’t know what the words they use mean, only how they make them feel. “Killed a Republican” = Leftist…it doesn’t matter that most recent political murders against conservatives were from other conservatives, they don’t do facts. The same with communist or socialism. They don’t actually know what those words mean, they just know “unga bunga feel-bad word make BIGLY MAD!” Once you learn that, it helps debate them more effectively.

        For the record, I don’t think it was for not being right wing enough. I think it was for being the hateful person he was, combined with the shooter being indoctrinated into the violent right-wing mentality and then caring for someone who was a common Kirk target.

      So that’s one, and a doubtful one at that. Got any others since you think it’s such a big problem?
