Palin and Limbaugh were nowhere near Arizona when Loughner went postal. Yet both were specifically accused of inciting the shooter.

Only someone pre-disposed to believe that a white, right-winger would be responsible for such an act would have interpreted the video like that. There was also plenty of video of the actual perpetrator, who really looked Middle Eastern, yet no conclusion jumping. Why?

Well no one said they are right 100% of the time.

I was driving I-95 and heard about a cop being shot in NC. I had a strong suspicion I'd go on the net and see a young black male as the shooter.

When I heard this story about a shooting in Denver, I pretty much suspected white male loner type.

Except for OKC, exactly how many incidents have taken place to justify the alleged danger of right wing loner types to our personal security? And if enough incidents exist to justify it, why can't we do the same for Muslims, who actually try to blow shit up or go on a shooting rampage on an almost weekly basis?

Prove that. You are making inferences about the reporter's motivations when you have no knowledge of the person, and little about the event or locality. They don't even have a complete body count WRT this crime. There are still bodies, possible living people still in that theater (as of 2PM EDT, per AP).

Apparently the teabagger guy has the same name, so it's not a leap of faith to draw the conclusion. Had the teabagger guy had been involved in some altercation involving firearms that got reported locally, it's a more obvious conclusion that any editor might run with.

They retracted it. You don't see Brighbart or Drudge retracting anything. Why don't you explain why that is?

You don't see Brighbart or Drudge retracting anything.

Once again you making things up that aren't true.

On August 12, 1997, Matt Drudge did indeed issue a retraction regarding a false allegation he posted about former Clinton senior adviser Sidney Blumenthal's personal life.

On October 23, 2008, Drudge published an unconfirmed exclusive story regarding Ashley Todd, the 20-year-old employee of the College Republican National Committee (CRNC) and John McCain volunteer who had allegedly been attacked by a black male for having a McCain sticker on her car in Pittsburgh. Drudge reported the story without a link but as 'developing'. The story was confirmed to be a hoax perpetrated by Todd and, according to Talking Points Memo, spread to reporters by McCain's Pennsylvania Communications Director.

Drudge then printed a retraction of the story, including links to the news stories detailing that the attack had been a hoax and that Ashley Todd had performed a similar 'attack' on herself while volunteering in a local Ron Paul grassroots group.

Do yourself a favor and stop posting falsehoods. It makes you look silly.

Obviously there's problems with CO's gun laws if crimes like this happen. Guns are one thing out in rural areas where the issue is protection from wild animals.

In the suburbs and cities, the wild animals are too often homo sapiens. Just like last night. Something has to be done to restrict guns in populated areas. Period.

Let's look at THIS incident today for a moment. Holmes allegedly planned this out very carefully, and with great attention to detail. He armed himself with an AR-15 assault rifle, TWO .40-caliber handguns, dressed himself in full body armor (including a helmet), lobbed tear gas into the theater, shot SEVENTY-ONE human beings (including infants), and booby-trapped his home with all kinds of anti-personnel devices and explosives.

Whether he was a "right-winger" or not, he was clearly a highly dangerous individual, who would have put any rabid, jihad-obsessed Muslim terrorist to shame, and he was running around with serious, military-grade weaponry.

That great bugaboo of the right, the "Muslim terrorist", is far from the only threat we face. Going to the movies shouldn't be a life-safety issue. It will be interesting to see what, if any, motive the authorities do establish in the coming days and weeks for this unspeakable act.

Indeed, he is notable for NOT being Muslim.

They found a Jim Holmes page or link on a Tea Party site and connected the dots incorrectly.

Much like Breitbart reported the suspect may be a registered Democrat but also had to walk their exclusive story back.

your pal,
Fred

The suspect is "notable for NOT being Muslim" only because, over the past 11 years, we have attuned ourselves to become hypersensitive about even the slightest inkling that a Muslim terror plot might be afoot. So when a Holmes, Loughner, or Brevik explodes onto the front page, we are astonished to find a white male doing the killing. The thing is, white men have (like all kinds of other rampage killers--Colin Ferguson comes readily to mind) been doing this kind of thing for all of the modern era.

But, again, terroristic Muslims are hardly the only ones out there with guns, bombs, and a grudge.

Actually, the Arapahoe County sheriff says Holmes entered through an unlocked emergency exit. I guarantee somebody will try to sue the theater over that, even though it's mandated by the fire code.

This is what happens when you violate the rule of "three attributable sources" before putting a story on the air. Allegedly, a local Denver TV station made the claim and quickly retracted it. That's only ONE "attributable source" and they walked it back within minutes after the erroneous report.

The pressure to get "news" on the air without properly following the rules results in stuff like this. And a network should know better. The requirements there are even higher than for some Podunk TV station. Another example of the high cost of "instant news." :(

Precisely ... if you don't have authorities to go on camera with an identification or facts, then you wait until one does.
