CNN

Also the crazy who killed the recruiting soldier was an islam convert, what radio station, media, group, etc. stirred him up? He also had a gun and I'll bet he did not have a carry permit for it. Criminals will have gun no matter what gun control measures are passed

This is utterly insane. Honestly the only people to blame are the people who commit the crime. But and there is a but. I seriously wish President Obama placed some sort of Presidential imflammatory law on the air was and some sort of Fine for Stations who pass along hate. This is the root of all of our porblems. There are too many rasict nutjobs looking to disturb the peace and wreak havoc on our homeland with the influence of Hannity, McConell, and warmongers like Rush. They are the first to blame racisim or defend a murderer before they take the side of the AMERICAN people. I am starting to believe they should be investigated for ties with the extreamist they have 'encouraged' on our homeland. I think we'll find more than they want us to

I guess Homeland Security wasn't wrong with thier report on the extreme right groups.

I am a democrat and a firm believer in the second amendment. This guy was a nut case and it makes no difference what party he was affiliated with. It is people like him who give law abiding gun owners and hunters a bad image and fodder for the anti gun extremist like the bradys, fienstein, pelosi and all the mouths on this board more to scream at each about whose party is the worst. Grow up people, a man died because a crazy person snapped. you should feel sympathy for his family not hatred for each other beacause of a stupid political stance. May God be with the victims family.

And it is on! The right wing nuts are loosing control, so they are acting out. I hope they continue to do so the Republicans can continue to look like the bigots they are or what they promote. Thank you!

I blame FOX news, Hannity, Beck and all the others for this type of action. They promote hate and fear all in the name of free speech. Take Hannity calling the President un-American and that he is killing this country and we need to fight back or Beck saying his policies are like Hitlers or Rush we all know he Hates Obama because a Black man is the president. I understand free speech but this is something else. When you have Fox News and the Shows calling the doctor that was just killed a baby killer and he has killed thousands of babies and for 5000 he will kill one for you what did they think was going to happen . I feel they killed this man and they will be responsible for more killings in the name of free speech.

We were warned of this – retired right-wing military being recruited for this kind of operation. Remember the fuss and the self-righteous indignation that the warning caused? And how those in the know who espoused this idea had to apologize? This is the DOMESTIC TERRORISM, pure and simple, about which we were warned and it has come true.

We all have rights in a democracy. Where is the stress on the RESPONSIBILITY?

I bet he was a Republican. He fits the profile.

Kudos for those security guards, that nut would probably have turned the museum into another Virginia tech were it not for them.

I hope a Hispanic doctor and a Jewish Nurse provide this moron's healthcare and his blood transfusion is from an African-American donor. Why not give him a skin pigmant change while we are at it!

I've got a charge for this guy, its called "first degree murder" and i've got a penalty, a date with ole'sparky. I just hope he lives long enough for us to execute him.

And for the left, its true that Europe has many more gun control laws than the US, but its also true that sites like "stormfront" and hate novels like the turner diaries are banned to. But as soon as you mention any restrictions on hate spewing neo-nazis, the left squeals "but what about the first amendment! If you don't let people preach about how they need to murder Jews it hurts all of us!!". NEWSFLASH!! hurting cretins ability to influence their flocks DO NOT hurt your rights to engage in civilized debate. The left says "we need common sense gun laws" well I say we need "common sense speech laws"!

you are most certainly a right wing nut job, I've read your postings before

but besides that you are right

It's a good thing that police departments all over the country are greatly involved in entrapping prostitutes and men who solicit their services, while all of these noted right wing white supremacist freaks run free. Each time I see the cops entrapping prostitutes on the street, I wonder what else could be done with those resources. Do you know how many murders remain unsolved in this country? I feel so bad for this security guard and his family. Looks like Napolitano was correct after all in suggesting that we might have a rash of domestic terrorists on our horizon.

"The ATF has asked its weapons tracing center in West Virginia to expedite a trace on the rifle, which could be completed by tomorrow. The trace should at a minimum provide the original sale and ownership of the weapon. The ATF is also trying to determine where the weapon has been, and how it came to be used in the deadly shooting at the Holocaust Museum."

Hey NRA....

This is why we need strict periodic re-registration of guns. So if some idiot who has a legally registered gun then turns into a crack addict and one night the only thing of value he has left for the next rock is his gun...then that person can be held as an accomplice to the fact if that gun later turns up as a murder weapon. Yeah its an inconvenience, we all gotta put up with an inconvenience at some time or another in our lives....but if it FORCES people to be RESPONSIBLE and held ACCOUNTABLE, it is better for the population as a whole....responsible gun owners get to keep their guns and someone gets to keep their life.

Can any dem/lib tell us how Janet Napolitano got her job as Sec. of DHS? Janet is a ideologue, the perfect Obama admin. She has no real security bona fides to qualify as DHS Sec. other than being a two-term governor from a border state and having a political ideology harmony with Obama.

Who the Hell is trying to save the sob life...oops someone need to pull the plug on the 88y /o racist bastard why are tax payers money wasting to save his life...let him die. die, die...I need him to go to hell before he gets common sense and repent.

I live in Pittsburgh, Poplawski listened to Rush, Coulter and the such of O'Reilly. O'Reilly who gave Tiller's name and address constantly on national television. When is someone going to debate this unacceptable and irresponsible behavior?

I feel so bad for this brave man's family. We are the United States of America. What does the world think of such a draconian society that wants to be seen as a leader with such racism being accepted. Even on our Main Stream Media? Kind of like ABC firing Bill Maher was Main Stream Media.

I blame this on FOX and all the crazy white racist Republicans.

What a sniveling old, cowardly b@st@rd. Stop treating him. Stop feeding him. Lock him in a room and let him rot....literally.

Here's hoping this waste of breath and skin never passed on DNA from his tainted gene pool.

The government need not spend much energy figuring out two dozen crimes to charge this 88 year old man with. If he doesn't die in the next few days, he will die in jail in a few years. Convict him of murder, sentence him to ten years, and forget him. There is also no need for Congress to pass more laws. There is already a law against murder.

Preventing this kind of thing from happening again is what our leaders need to focus on.

Rush this is blood on your hands. Hours of hate talk just ignited a racist like yourself to carry out this act. So Bill ORielly, Rush, Sean and the many of their followers I guarantee you a lot of sick souls that you have scared are going to fall right over the edge and do pockets of terrorists work. And you call yourself Americans. Folks Rush, Dick, Newt, Liddy, Bill, Sean...These are the Unpatriotic Americans, they dont want good for america unless it is by an administration ran by a white person. And it better be a man, because women are right behind their racist line of work. Pathetic Loosers. They are robbing america blind just to talk and entertain, sell books and get speaking engagements to make money...

Let's call this what it is, domestic terrorism.

Napolitano report entitled Rightwing Extremism targets law-abiding US citizens, who choose not to support the socialist/communist agendg of Obama. The target list is a lengthly one, encompassing all single-issue advocates. Including those who are pro-life, those who are gun owners, those who oppose illegal immigration and same sex marriage, those who criticize free trade agreements, and, believe it or not, those military returning from Iraq ammd Afghanistan come those vets still around. A citizen-taxpayer who falls into several of these catergories are targeted. In April 2009, Axelrod said the Tea Party movement is an UNHEALTHY mutation from public dissatisfaction with Obama policies. Since when is free speech by grass-roots citizens movement unhealthy? Lest Obamas DHS,DOJ,FBI forget, the US Constitution protects the right to bear arms, the right to peaceful assembly and free speech. OBAMA AND HIS FOLLOWERS IN COMPLETE DISREGARD FOR THE CONSTITUTION RIGHTS OF THE CITIZENRY.

There are dozens of hate-crime related murders in the country every month, why is this the only one making headlines? Americans would be a lot less complacent if the media actually did its job right instead of waiting around for yet another murder to happen!

I thought America was a safe place. Freedom of speech and religion was always a nightmare.

Brian at 5:22 p.m. – Excellent point! I never got that either.

Justice should prevail here. When you find him cut his head off in the public square for all eyes to watch.

My prayers and condolences to the Jones family. The conservative right wing nuts are partially responsible for the increase of racist chatter and threats as cited by the feds. Of course Hannity, Limbaugh, Steele, Gingrich and the rest of the very people that are adding fuel to the fire attempted to silence the report which turned out to be accurate. Do you really think an 88 year old racist cares what he's charged with? He's thrilled knowing that he killed a Black man at the Holocaust Museum. He has fulfilled a life long dream.

The shooter is a domestic terrorist.

Try him. Sentence him. Execute him.

Is this man a Christian terrorist or are we not allowed to say that?

The FBI needs to increase the level of rigor around domestic terrorism and work with local officials to protect citizens. We know who these folks are and they need to be stopped! Of course Limbaugh, Gingrich, Coulter, Hannity, O'Reilly, Cheney and elected officials like Palin (who I saw do NOTHING when a right wing nut job sherriff in Florida incited a crowd during the presidential campaign), Bachman (who everyone knows her antics), Posner (Florida Congressman who is pushed for legislation to demand President Obama prove citizenship), and others create this atmospher of hate. Their inflammatory rhetoric emboldens these nut cases. Intelligent Americans must stand up to this. I am more concerned aboute the Domestic terrorists than international terrorism.

88 years old....why wasn't he under supervision especially after his past escapade of attempting to kidnap members of the Federal Reserve board? Can't even trust our senior, senior citizens to do the right thing...another embarrassment to the US of A. When will we stop attacking our own people?

The GOP is the party of hate? Based on the majority of these comments I would have to conclude that the GOP is well represented because there is a lot of venom being tossed about. Thank God for the tolerant left.

Fox, Hannity and Limbaugh are the cause of these acts? Get a grip, people.

This is way out in left field but there is one certain way to save American from these nut jobs; close down FOX5 and disallow all crazy people from spewing their hatred.

The likes of Rush, Coulter and all the other fruit cakes should be banned and they should also be charged for being an accessory to murder. There seem to be more terrorist in the USA than the like of Bin Laden. If these criminal was to get their hands on hard core weapons, they'll use it. White supremacists have been around for a long time and it's full time to rid society of their scourge.

We are not at war with ourselves and there is no reason a person should have multiple weapons.

i guess it would be a fantasy to think that Holder would think about a hate crime against the MUSLIM that killed one soldier and wounded another ?? no, wrong color. and religion..my apology..

To: Robin June 10th, 2009 5:38 pm ET

Thank you and well put. I feel the same way and I'm Democrat, Christian and Pro-Choice.

There is NO difference between this man, the murderer who kill the abortion doctor and Bin Laden and his gang of terrorist...except the US terrorists look and talk like us. It's a shame to worry about being attacked by your own countrymen. These murderers should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

HonestMistake June 10th, 2009 5:50 pm ET

Do you want to blame Project Pink or MSNBC for the murder of Pvt. Long. Do any of you even know what happened to Pvt. Long? Quit blaming conservative talk radio every time some extremist does something despicable. There is hate in this world, that is just a fact of life.
========================

Are you serious??? HonestMistake what mistake.....you forgot how to turn the radio dial and listened to Rush and his hate speech

this is so sad to hear with all the problems that we are facing why such horriable killings?

Man there is a lot of hate on here.

I'm all for free speech, but there are lines of common decency and good sense that must be adhered to.

I agree with Dan – right wing blowhards bear some responsibility. Their daily servings of hate and lies fuel the bitter and weak minded. I also hold the rnc responsible for not calling folks out with pleas to turn it down a notch – they aren't blind deaf or dumb – they see what's going on and stand on the sidelines and let this go on.

I've watched videos from the palin rallies during the elections where racist rants and disgusting signage was commonplace. The "tea bagging" by the right and the bigotry and hatred on full display again.

I – and unfortunately the whole world – is seeing the absolute worst of this country. I'm ashamed for the hatemongers because they obviously have neither the intelligence or common decency to be ashamed of themselves.

Another fox news viewer.

Often, these events do not happen in a vacuum. We need to investigate all of his contacts, associates, mentors, affiliations and make them public

I am just finishing a book about the Temple bombing in Atlanta. Well written. It goes into some detail about the connections among the right-wing extremists involved. Someone needs to do the same thing with this right-wing extremist.

Right wing talk radio contributes an atmosphere of hate and fear which inflames their fringe.

This is nauseating. We have all got to stand against this kind of ignorant hatred. My heart is broken for the security guard and the family and friends he leaves behind. The shooter is a coward, a terrorist and an idiot.

May God Bless Officer Johns and his family!

We are better than the hate that brews and for those that want our country to fail. Why don't they just go to an island and be happy!

My prayer to all tonight will be please stop the hate and the killings!

Please stop the HATE AMEN!

This is the Republican way! Thank God we have Obama as president!

Following the logic of liberals, since a lot of libs hate the military and the president is Black, then it must be your fault that a black man shot a soldier in Little Rock. See how stupid that sounds!

Name one hate thing any of those talk show hosts have said that would incite someone and give them a reason to kill. Just because people don't agree with Obama's policies does not make them racist and full of hate. You and your liberal friends are the ones that get on these boards and spew hate and call names.

There is no excuse for what this man did, and there is nothing that a conservative has said that made him do what he did.

Whether or not this sick man has any current ties with hate groups, his long association with hate-fringe-groups, in this case white racists, paints a terrifying picture of what can happen when ANY mentally disturbed citizen has access to a gun.

This is sad day in America!!! Maybe Sean,Rush,Cheney and Newt will stop spreading Hate, Racism and bashing President Obama .....It is a lot of sick people in America

***May God Bless the family of Stephen Tyrone Johns

Give him a positionin the Obama Administration – that would be punishiment enough

How about the murder of Private Long by the black Muslim who admitted he disagreed with Mid East policy thanks to the rantings by Obama and the left-wingnuts. The hatred spewed by liberals in this country is now causing domestic terrorism against servicemen. Must make the left-wing hatefilled bloggers on this site proud.

Hating is such an easy reaction. Those who "hate" don't have it rougher than others. They just don't want to think. We all have people who treat us unfairly and thankfully most of us do not act like these misery seeking people. Yeah, I know guns don't kill people, people kill people. But look what these few obssessed people have done throughout our lives and those who lived before us, just thinking about America, not the genocides and holocausts around the world.

and prosecute the associates for assisting terrorism!

Why does the Media and the education system of America keep insisting that there were Six Million jews killed in the Holocaust…when there were not even that many jews living in that geographical area that could have been killed, even if they ALL had been killed? Which they were not. They were not ALL killed. Which makes the official story all the more implausible. Kind of makes you wonder, doesn't it?

Could it be, that the whole business of grossly exagerating the holocaust has been used to justify the creation of the jewish state. Wow, people will believe absolutely anything they are spoon-fed by the media, with no questions asked. It's amazing, simply amazing. The holocaust simply could not have killed as many jews as being told, under any circumstances or theory of the imagination. It is just not possible, it is not physically possible. Why are people like sheep, they just go with the herd, and believe what the herd is told they are supposed to believe.

This is so tragic. Award Stephen Tyrone Johns!!! Invite his family to the WH and have the Mayor of DC honor him also. he died a hero. God bless 'em!

May God bless Mr. Stephen Tyrone Johns' family. I hope that everyone will keep his family in their prayer.

It must have been a banner day for the shooter to kill a black guard in the Holocaust Museum. Such hateful people have no place in our society. When will people learn that we are on this planet to make the world a better place, not kill each other.

My heart goes out to Mr. John's family. It really saddens me that such a young man had to die by such a senseless act.

I hope the museum will have a memorial for him and I hope the president attends. The museum is a wonderful place that gives people hope for a greater society.

Another loose right wing nut job.

Check out the Southern Poverty Law Center's list of extremist organizations in the United States ...

(www.splcenter.org/intel/intelreport/intrep.jsp)

There is also extraordinary coverage about these problems across the country at (www.colorlines.com).

So can I blame Keith Olberbum for Private Long's death or Chrissy Matthews?

Who is PVT Long?

He was the American hero who unlike you Progressives, volunteered and wore the uniform but was recently killed by shhhhh, a Muslim convert, still waiting for Barry H to "speak out" on that horrible act.

He SHOULD speak out on this and the museum as he did with Tiller, all horrible despicable acts by cowards, but why the silence when a REAL hero is killed by a REAL Muslim?

It speaks volumes to what this empty suit thinks is important.

@ FactCheck June 10th, 2009 5:47 pm ET

Since Fox News is instigating these acts of terrorism, how are they any different from Al Queda?
__________________________________________________

They are no different than Al Queda. They just call themselves something different and they say they did not order these actions but the hate they spew is just as if they ordered the action.

I say let him go free in South Central L.A. after announcing it on the 5 o'clock news.

The shooter was a regular poster on the Free Republic, a republican internet site filled with haters and nut cases.

They should start locking up these domestic terrorist nuts in GITMO.

Terrorist is a terrorist no mater were they come from, their religion or age.

My prayers go out to the police officer's family and friends. Hero till the end!

Fear mongers stir up the pot spreading fear and hate and when those that are so easily pointed in the direction they want them to go and take the actions they struck fear in them about, the first thing they do is condemn the act as if to say they didn't want the action. Well people you have stirred the haters into taking the actions you wanted. Now it's time to stop the hating. It is pulling our nation apart. Accept that we are a multi cultural nation and no one race is better than another. Stop spreading the hate and work together as one nation. If we do not start working together as one nation we will slip quickly into the status of a savage third world country where we find ourselves fighting each other. That is not the America our country is supposed to be.

Why show the picture of the Black Victim instead of the face of the Murderer??? Oh, I forgot HE'S WHITE. I'm confused...!!!!!!!!!!

I wish someone would tone down the hateful rhetoric both on tv and in the on-line blogs and websites.

I believe they will make more of an effort now to trace those who speak hate and incitement. I sure hope so.

If this isn't a "hate crime", then "hate crimes" don't exist!

How can anyone in their right mind be dismayed at anyone shooting anyone else in a country that seemingly won't settle for anything less than a gun vending machine at every corner in america. Enough with the argument that people kill people, not guns. WRONG!

We ought to change the saying "a chicken in every pot" to "a couple of Uzzi's in every home"

Since Obama's election, the haters really have come out. This man's name was on a conservative website (since taken off) that believes Obama is not a citizen. A doctor killed in church by a "prolifer". There are hateful messages all over the internet, many at FOX. Many talk show hosts spew hatred and extreme views that make little sense. However, there are those wackos out there who think the t.v. is actually talking to them.

Any nut that referred to Republicans in their comments are really touched. That's the same as blaming Democrats for the Muslim shooting the Army recruiter. Please quit being sheep AND THINK WITH YOUR MIND, USE COMMON SENSE. There are nuts in this world.

For the neo-con Right who was so scared President Obama would take away your guns? With stupid violence and hate like this, would you blame him if he did take them away at this point?

The rhetoric of Palin, Limbaugh, Gingrich, and Chaney to name a few just adds ammunition to these right wing racists nuts. No they did not pull the trigger but they add fire to fuel. Then they pretend that they don't realize it.

Go with both Domestic Terrorism AND Murder. This man is evil incarnate. Also, I think his estate should be given to the guard's family. Don't think he'll be needing it any longer.

What a pathetic, pathetic legacy Von Brunn has left for his family.

Another right wing domestic terrorist just like the Homeland Security memo that the GOP had a hissy fit about predicted. GOP spokespeople like Michele Bachmann, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Glenn Beck and Bill O'Reilly should be ashamed of themselves for stoking the fires of hate with distorted information on a daily basis. This is the fourth domestic terrorist incident attributed to a right wing extremist. Those GOP spokespeople have a right to free speech but they also have a duty to report facts and not to stoop to dramatic distortions that inflame hatred and paranoia of the most extreme members of their party.

I thought libs were completely against torture? While I do not approve of the act and seriously hope this old man gets what he deserves, it amazes me how the thought of torturing another human being is now OK? I thought, according to libs, it is not the American way. What a hypocrite!!

Why oh why would anybody try to bring current political landscapes of the United States into a worldwide problem of racism? Blaming any racist, extremist violent act on right wingers is like the left accepting blame for any extreme violent act committed due to a left-wing ideology, namely anytime a Muslim kills in the name of Allah. I know, sounds crazy right but the neocons believe that the left panders to and encourages this group of extremists and they have plenty of 'ammunition' to back up their claims. Everyone just needs to understand that in our country of 305 million people there are going to be quite a few crazy people that do crazy things. Just come spend one Friday evening in the ER with me and you'll see what I'm talking about.

um....what?!

___________________________________________________________

I'm sure these people posting their hate here do not know the story about Pvt. Long and I'm sure it's safe to say they don't care. How sad. Yet, they are so quick to blame FoxNews, Rush, Hannity, and so on when a nut case does what he did today. As you say, there is hate in this world and it comes in every shape, form, and color.

With that being said.........Thank you Stephen Tyrone Johns for being a HERO today and may you rest in peace. My prayers go out to all the victims in today's tragedy.

How really stupid some of you are. A peace officer gets murdered and all you can do is try and make something political out of it. Totally stupid.

Is there any reason we should find it surprising that while our televisions are filled (on a daily basis) with incendiary terms such as "racist, terrorist, muslim, socialist... and the list goes on" that this doesn't result in murder? I'll let each of us decide which group of people are doing the "hate speech" promoting.

Heck.... it can't be that much of a reach to see it as motivation to go out and kill.

@Ken, Dan, SF Serg, Lori, Enlightened Voter, Factcheck, historyrepeats, and Jared
How is this becoming a political issue? A Racist bigot shot and killed a man! Please tell me where either man's political beliefs appear in the story! Your posts are ignorant! Save your hate for another day..an innocent man is dead. What's wrong with you people?

"Since Fox News is instigating these acts of terrorism, how are they any different from Al Queda?"

This has to be one of the most inane comments ever posted on CNN. The author is a ridiculous demagogue.

My sincerest condolences to the family of Mr. Johns. Agree with whaley441 that he probably saved many lives. As far as the shooter is concerned, I actually hope he lives. Not because he deserves it but because making him a martyr to his 'cause' is possibly the only thing that could make this situation worse. A sad day.

My prayer go out to the family of Stephen Tyrone Johns who was killed today at the Holocaust Museum. May he rest in peace.

WOW... already the main focal point is where did the gun come from??? Who cares, people are dead that is the thing that people should be thinking about. This gun could have been owned by 20 different people and what then? The gun had a bad day and decided to talk his owner into killing people? The press is heartless and driven by agenda. Sick.

I will pray for the family of all the victims, especially the security officer. This world, this country, is so filled with hate it scares me. Why cannot the people of the most "enlightened" country in the world not get along?

White Nationalists despise White GOPers, whom they consider race traitors, even more than they do liberals.

Really, would right-wing talk radio inspire someone to go shoot up a Holocaust museum? Your average GOPer absolutely worships Jews and Israel.

Lots of left-wing stupidity and delusion in evidence on this board.

I grew up in South Carolina during the time of Jim Crow Laws. We need to grow up as a national and live up to the laws in our Constitution. RACISM MUST GO, whether it's Faux Network trying to imply wedge issues like......... Guilty by association....

Right wing replublicans neo-nazi nuts are at work again. Fox snooze Rush Liebot Sly hannity Bil Oreally have been preaching hate for years and getting away with it. America needs to do something about that.

@ HonestMistake....... Yes, we DO know about Private Long.

And YES, I DO blame the hate rhetoric of the far-right whether its the
Islamic extremists or the Republican extremists, for hate crimes!

A lot of LIES pass as truth on the Hannity & Limbaugh shows, that incenses people who are not well mentality! Like the man who killed THREE policemen in Pittsburgh! The man who killed the Officers, said he was afraid guns would be banned by Obama....... where did he get that idea? Limbaugh, Hannity and the rest of the far-right-GOP-extremists!

My heart goes out to the Stephen Johns' family – to be gunned down in such a senseless, cowardly manner is simply horrific.

I believe that God is here to comfort us, and hope Mr. Johns family finds solace.

I'm thankful I'll never understand the depth of evil and emptiness that the shooter knows. What a waste of breath he has been for so many years.

The right-wing nut cases in this country are equally as evil as Osama Bin Laden. Both hate Jews, both want America and President Obama to fail, and both cause terrorism in America.

does a person have to be a liberal becuase they feel sympathy and anger ovr what has happened here? Does a person have to be a conservative because they don't want the fingers pointing at the right and right wing talk show hosts? As a moderate myself I feel the finger pointing if any needs to go to the accused shooters themelves, we need to be able to work together to try to get more tolerence in our nation. The last thing we need is to have the likes of Limbuagh, Rev Wright, Rev Sharpton et al on soapboxes making more division in our nation.

The man is a Nazi. His intent was to start a race war. Like Manson. He drew his inspiration and support from like minded individuals in the media and on the internet. Like Roeder. He believed his god compelled him to action. Like Bledsoe and Roeder. We have met the enemy and he is us.

You liberals will make anything; say anything to cover Obama's butt. No republican nor does O'Rielly; or any of the other talk show hosts approve of anyone being killed. To blame them shows how stupid you are; you are disgusting for posting things like this.

I agree white supremacists are a high threat to all of our society. If your views are extreme, you probably have some major issues. Go get help before you do something devastating to the majority of our country.

----------------------–
I agree with you. But just to be consistant, Honest Mike....please jump over to the Rev. Wright story and get all bent out of shape about how people associate something that ONE person does and makes their whole PARTY guilty because some NUT CASE did/said soemthing NUTTY and whacked.

Just saying bro...keep it real!

Yuck! That guy is just disgusting!

Anther psycho with crazy views.

So are the Republicans celebrating? The guard wasn't white, probably wasn't wealthy on a security guard's salary, and didn't fit their idea of "proper Americans". I bet they wish it was Obama, am I right, Cheney? Limbaugh? Gingrich? Palin? Just another dead minority....

Why aren't these nut jobs considered Terrorist rounded up, sent to Gitmo and waterboarded for information? Why was the fall out different for Tim McVay, was his total number of deaths too low? What a double standard.

Wright is not news and he is only reported on by FOX.

All I can say to that is the reason the mainstream media does not report on Wright is they know Wright is a poor reflection on Obama, Obama's past, his associations, would remind Americans that Obama sat in a hate mongering so-called church for 20 years. Of course no other media outlet makes news of Wright!

If this isn't proof that O'Reilly, Hannity, Beck, Limbaugh, and Coulter should apologize and then shut up, then what is? An abortion doctor killed in church, and they say "fine." A soldier killed outside a recruiting station...they say "Where's the outrage!" A man opens fire at a federal museum, and what will they say now? Obama instigated hate against Jews?
Say what you will about liberals, but we do not go around shooting people on the orders of a TV entertainer turned anti-American. We think about things, and we might complain, but no liberal ever threatened Bush or Cheney with death, let alone went after them with a gun. These shootings, and the recent family killings, are the result of the NRA and all those people who think the 2nd amendment gives them the right to own any and all weapons, and to raise one whenever you dislike someone. I hear you "just enforce the laws we already have." Well, this guy was a felon, and he managed to get a gun....maybe we should just get rid of the GUNS! Guns kill people!

For all of these dodo birds that don't understand the easy logic of hate crimes, let me try to explain it for the one millionth time. If 12 year old red headed girls are being murdered in your community for no reason, then your community has a disproportionate number of 12 year old red headed girls being murdered. This preponderance of evidence suggests that something needs to be done to protect 12 year old red headed girls within your community. We raise the penalty for anyone who shoots a 12 year old red headed girl because they need the most protection within your community. Easy logic!!!!!! Unless you have zero sympathy for 12 year old red headed girls who should figure out themselves how to dodge impending bullets.

I have been blogging consistently about the increase in hate crimes DIRECTLY DUE to the bitter, venomous hate rhetoric that is spewed across the airwaves daily by those like Limbaugh, Hannity, and all those other criminal, deranged, insane, demonic conservative republicans. Where's justice America?

Forget about the GitMo detainees, you already have terrorist in the country who want to kill Americans. They're already organized and protected by the constitution. I guess the GOP will have to find another scare tactic.

Wow, for all the talk from the Republicans of stomping out terrorism, all they've done is increase it. Osama bin Laden is still at large; countless other Muslim extremists have become invigorated by our endless wars in their countries which kill thousands of innocent civilians; and thanks to the likes of Sarah Palin, the conservative talk show hosts and Fox "News" we now have homegrown terrorists who think nothing of shooting doctors in churches or security guards at museums. I strongly believe that historians will implicate the conservative movement and the Republican party in the breeding of a culture of brazen hate and misguided vigilantism that will threaten our peace at home for years to come.

I hope the shooter lives. Dying would be an easy exit for the coward. Let him slowly rot in jail.

I have been saying for awhile that you can't have all of these Republicans on Fox News spewing hate to ignorant people without something terrible happening. It's starting and will not stop until this hate speech stops. They are creating a mob mentality and it is dangerous. The likes of O' Reilly, Hannity, Rush, Coulter, and Beck feeding them full of hate and anger and them say it's not their fault when something bad happens. YES IT IS!

PLEASE PUT A STOP TO THIS BEFORE MORE INNOCENT PEOPLE ARE KILLED!

It very sad to see the u.s.a. turn into a foreign country. Why can't u.s. people buy these businesses. ARE WE THE MOST POWERFUL COUNTRY if so why are the foreigners buying up all these companies.....

I hope the shooter doesn't die so he can face the charges of first degree murder.

What do we expect from right wing fanatics...

...who are the progeny of lynchers, night riders, murderers and rapists...

...and whose leaders advocate wars of choice, torture, and depletion of the treasury to benefit the privileged few?

...If justice is to be meted out...

...why not start with their so-called leaders?

88 years is a LONG time to be hating people. This accused shooter just took away someone's son, possibly father husbad or brother just because of skin color. Yet there are still some who want to turn a blind eye to this situation. During Palin rallies when the cries of "KILL HIM", "Terrorist", and other racial slurs flew out, it was just dismissed as a small segment of "good ol' boys" just having fun...probably had a ew beers before they showed up. I guess these are the same folks that showed up at so-called tea parties to protest taxes wearing racially insulting Obama t-shirts and holding equally insulting signs. Then we have a left wing extremist kill a young soldier and wound another because of his insane beliefs. And yet all what wil happen the next few days will be arguments with the left blaming the right, gun control, freedom of speech and fear tactics.

Seems like you are a target if you go anywhere. There is always some nutcase wanting to shoot you if you dont' agree with them. TALK ABOUT GOVERNMENT TAKING AWAY FREEDOMS. Looks like the public is the one doing that. They want everyone to walk in lockstep with their beliefs.

The Taliban are among us – and our Taliban are Republican hate-filled right-wing fanatical Christians.

Responding to Brian:

"Why should it be more wrong to shoot someone based on the color of their skin as opposed to say shooting them while trying to steal their wallet? Isn't all crime "hate" crime. All of these labels only serve to make the simple complicated."

One purpose of hate crime legislation is to prosecute crime not only for its effect upon the direct victim but for the terror in incites in a community. If you burn a building down you can be convicted of arson. If you burn that same building down, however, because you are making an ideological point and trying to incite fear, you can be prosecuted for terrorism in addition. If you murder someone because they are of a particular race, rather than simply for their money, you are sending a message to other people of that race. Hate crimes legislation would allow for a harsher sentence in this case. I would agree that in many cases in can be difficult to determine the actual motive of a crime but this is what juries are for. They determine motive all the time in cases of manslaughter vs. murder and perjury vs. obstruction of justice.

Control the manufacture and sale of AMMO. Do it NOW. The Second Amendment says NOTHING about THAT.

Once again, the Reich (sic) Wing has blood on its hands. Liberals don't kill people; reich (sic) wing fascists kill people.

Did'nt homeland security come out about a month ago saying be on the look out for this kind of person but know the Republicans came out saying the adminstration was attacking right-wing conservitive's.
Rush,coulter,malkin,and the rest of the nutjobs need to take a look at the dead guard who died a hero.all the far right is to blame for this crime.

These terrorist need to be stopped. How can these people be so heartless when our Jewish Brothers have suffered so much in the past. We are all God's Children. We need to deal with our home-grown terrorist.

again heres to the idoits on the board who blame the right well there are more supporters of Israel and the Jewish people then there on the left so enough with your lies

this is to all the hate left idoits obama followers there are more supports of Israel and the jewish people on right then on the left the Liberals and the Democrates attack is daily so in other words the lying left is at it again

I wander if the neo-cons in the GOP and Fox News will be offering apologies to Napilatano and DHS.

They ripped her a new one for publicizing a report that was requested by Bush, and warned against this very thing, a white supremacist lunatic veteran going off the deep end due to the hate stirred up by all the rhetoric of "us vs them" used so well as a wedge by the neo-cons.

Who needs to worry about enemies without when we have the "christian taliban" doing such a fine job from within.

It's a hate crime.........

Republicans, take responsibility for the hate you continuously put out there against those not like you and against our President! Us Americans are tired of the hate! Enough is enough!

The Republican/Conservative/Right has run out of options. All that remains for them is violence. This is a proud day for them; especially the Palin Lynch Mob.

there are dangerous people from the left as there are from the right like obama and his followers like Rev Wright who attack Israel and the jews daily wanting them to give up land for false peace I am against the killing today in Washington and my prayers are with the officers family

A recent survey reported that 1/3 of republicans are not happy with the direction of their party. I wonder if it has anything to do with a lack of ideas, or just that not all republicans are haters.

We all need to stop listening to consevative talk radio and hate mongering.

Speaking of nut jobs Dan@ if you can stop spewing your hate for a few minutes, would you care to comment on the Islamist who shot those two soldiers in Arkansas last week. I know CNN didn't carry it, but you may want to put down the bong and check it out before condeming the conservatives with your hateful, marijuana induced invective.

This sad incident certainly got more coverage on CNN that that Islam nut who shot the two soldiers in Arkansas. Is CNN (at the direction of Emmanuel, through Carville and Begala) trying to insinuate that Napolitanos insane comments about the right wing are correct or is it just sloppy jounalism (so to speak) by CNN and the main stream media. It's working read Terry from Texas, he is a dope smokin' Obama believer.

The toll mounts, first 3 policeman killed because the killer thought President Obama was going to take his guns away.

Then an army recruit is killed because of a "religious jihad" for his new religion..

A doctor that performs abortions is killed and the killer is "thankful:

Now, this White Supremacist goes after folks at the Holocaust Museum.

It is time for radio host,s political pundits, supposed "christians" and cable chatter bobble-heads to stop fanning the flames of hate, racism and bigotry in this country or this will only get worse.

Here we go ... The radical right crazies are starting to boil over the top of the pot.

This is all the fault of the Republican party's inability to effectively placate the nuts within their midst. Harsh discordant Republican language is heard on all stations and channels throughout the land. And this harsh language is angering, empowering, and energizing folks into doing anti-social acts that they wouldn't do during less politically combative times. Republican discord is destroying social controls.

Murder an abortion doctor? No problem ... go for it.
Punish innocent ethnic minorities with a gun? No problem ... go for it.

The Republicans are talking us into anarchy.

Everyone knock off the blame and hate for a moment and send out condolences to this man's family...Please get a grip, It is not Democrat or a Republican issue ... this is a death for goodness sake.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family of Stephen.

You liberals are pathetic. You seriously think that this lunatic, or the one who shot Tiller, is representative of conservatives.

Meanwhile, you are silent on the murder of Private Long, probably because you just don't care. He was a US servicemember, but exploiting his murder doesn't fit into your political objectives, so you and your media lapdogs ignore it.

Now, you use this to justify the Obama administration's attacks on conservatives' lawful protests. Is there a single liberal around here who actually believes in tolerance?

Of course, CNN will never approve this comment, because it doesn't further the causes of left-wing ascendancy and right-wing suppression.

I bet they found a prayer card with St. McVeigh's picture on it in his wallet...with a prayer addressed to "Our Holy Father Limbaugh."

Roeder claimed to know of other plots to commit acts similar to his (shooting the abortion doctor) around the country in an AP interview. I suppose we should be torturing him since he has credible information about imminent attacks on US citizens, eh GOPers? How about we send the angry white supremecist to GItmo so we can waterboard him and find the rest of his Klan to snuff it out?

Everyone notices a Black man running down the street. No one pays attention to a white man in a red car, carrying a "large gun," running into a museum. In both instances a Black man is killed. Go figure.

Everyone has his or her own excuse for violence. This individual is no different that the man who murdered Dr. Tiller.

Worse yet, the Republican Party and its leader Rush LImbaugh promote this "if you don't like someone kill them, they're evil" philosophy.

What's that?!
A convicted felon used a gun in a crime?!
How can that be?!
We have gun laws that prevent violent felons from buying guns!

See hippies, this is just one more example... if you outlaw guns, only those who have no respect for the laws will have them. This man KNEW he was not legally allowed to have a weapon. But he managed to get one anyway, IN SPITE of the laws preventing it.

But I'm probably wrong anyway, right? Say, how is drug prohibition working these days?

For those of you who don't think that these nutjobs like Lush and Coulter bear no responsibility, take the case of Richard Poplawski. He shot and killed 3 police officers during a stand-off in Pittsburgh. When asked why he did it, his cousin said that Poplawski feared "the Obama gun ban that's on the way" and "didn't like our rights being infringed upon." President Obama has never said a word about a gun ban. So where did he get this idea? From the conservative mouths who will make anything up to make people fear, and therefore hate, President Obama.

In much the same way that spending excessive money during an election is a form of free speech, so also is an excessive use of firearms.....the shooter was merely trying to express himself. So the headline on FoxNews will read: Sen. McConnell applauds elderly man who exercised his rights to bear arms and free speech in Holocaust Museum shooting.

You neo-wingnuts keep telling us that your party's problem has been not being extreme-right enough, so you all need to put your money where your big mouths are, get your panties straight, and go all-in on this. I want to see some off-the-chart kooky rhetoric on this subject!

we live in a sad time. folks are willing to kill those who disagree with their beliefs or because of their nationality; hate simply destroys and the hateful posts on blogs does nothing but add fuel to the fire for those who are selfish and hateful and prepared to do anthing but right to change what they believe is wrong;
who would be a proud America today when someone takes the life of a guard at work who was simply trying to support his family;
just think, how you would feel if the bread winner or a love one in your home was gunned down and killed for no good reason; I am sick to my stomach;

Terrorist have struck America. This savage who killed U.S. citizens just to hunt for our Jewish friends, is disgusting. This vile creature is part of a larger picture of terrorism in our country. This disgusting act is tied to the other savage act of terror against the Dr. who performed abortions. This is a growing threat to America. We must combat this terror with all the forces in our possession. We should start profiling all those who fit the description of this growing radical organization. Thugs, terrorist, radicals and evil savages populate this demographic.

If anybody sees anyone fitting the description of these savages, please contact your local authorities.

Another product of the right wing nut jobs. Extremists are dangerous. It doesn't matter whether they are about religion, country, or the environment. They all think that their way is the only way. The right wing talking heads have a right to their opinion. The problem is that they aren't even close to being "fair and balanced". They spew their rhetoric as if it is gospel. Watch them screaming on TV. Then watch film of Hitler screaming at rallies. No difference in style. Whip your constituents into a frenzy with half truths, exagerations, and lies that will apeal to them and further your cause. It's not your fault if some of your supporters are unstable. After all, stuff happens.

here you have all these right wing hate groups and extremist going around the country shooting up people and places. probably after listening to shaun hannity all day spew his race coded talk radio and tv hate programs. this is also a result of congressmen like the one in oklahoma that slipped in a bill, for the right to carry guns in national parks . and this same congressman has a unsolved murder case of two beautiful [white] little girls angels gunned down in his state where them folks of that ilk get to roam around w/ guns big bad good ol boys. and think its manly to go around strapped. and gun down innocent people which most of these people are mentally ill. this red state justice and way of life is going to get out of control .where is the FBI? how come they don't track these type of people and arrest them like the black KEYSTONE terrorist that they like to guide and entrap w/ dud explosives. red state racist will be the down fall of this country. its coming truly in the fast lane.

Do you want to blame Project Pink or MSNBC for the murder of Pvt. Long. Do any of you even know what happened to Pvt. Long? Quit blaming conservative talk radio every time some extremist does something despicable. There is hate in this world, that is just a fact of life.

gee i wonder if he was a republican.....i wooooonder

How incredibly tragic for the guard and his family. People who want to use this horrendous event to further sling hate and accusations at each other should just tone it down and think about this poor man. He went to his place of work and was gunned down.

What if it were your family member? Surely we can pause for a day just to honor his lfe.

Since Fox News is instigating these acts of terrorism, how are they any different from Al Queda?

Hearing what had happen to the Holocaust Museum everyone thinks the same. how can this happen... This is an atrocity..

Go to a Concentration Camp and see if you come away feeling differently.

If I go on and speak my mind, CNN will not post me...

Domestic terrorism....and charge the person who sold him the gun with supporting terrorism. The guy has a major criminal record. How did he get a gun?!?!

The wacko who shot and killed the doctor while he was serving as an usher at his CHURCH should be charged with the same thing.

My prayers go out to the families of the guard and the doctor.

You can thank the likes of lush limpaugh, hannity, coulter and right wing fanatics for this and similar crimes. The republican party is the party of hate. They are the American Taliban. Janet Napalinito was right about the right wing terrorist groups inhabiting the USA, remember the republicans forced her to apologize and all she did was tell the truth.

What would he be charged with besides murder? Trespassing? Disturbing the Peace?

Personally, I say just let him die.

We've seen two acts of domestic terrorism: the killing of the abortion doctor and these killings at the holocaust museum. Religious fundamentalism and racism are natural intellectual positions for deranged people.

My own family were all Southern Baptist fundamentalists though I am not (any longer). I remember as a boy being told in a sermon that the only residents of Heaven would be the 144,000 best Southern Baptists. People who believe that they and only they have the approval of the Deity feel justified in doing anything – if they are a bit whacko to begin with.

I have no sympathy for this man, he should be punished to the fullest extent of the law.

I have no sympathy for the young muslim convert who murdered a soldier in front of a recruitment office in Little Rock.

I have no sympathy for the man who murdered the late-term abortion doctor.

Yes, I'm a Republican, christian, and pro-life.

No, I am not a racist or a right wing nut job.

Let the Republican/conservative backlash begin...

Are you kidding me? How about MURDER?

While you are at it, why not arrest Limbaugh and all the racist right wing nuts who are on the airways inciting violence against innocent, law abiding citizens.

I say stop any further medical treatment of this guy now and we will not wast any more time or money on this stupid stuff. any person who does what this guy did does not deserve to be treated if he gets hurt. Let him suffer in pain until he dies.

Proof that ignorance and stupidity can be eternal. Charge the GOP and FOX for spearheading this type of hatred. The good news is that the Republicans are stubborn regressives, which gives liberals the opportunity for long-lasting Democratic control.

The man killed an officer. What do you mean you don't know what to charge him with... MURDER! These homegron terrorists/ extremists are getting out of hand just like Janet Napoletano's report indicated tehy would after the election of Barack Obama.

Why should it be more wrong to shoot someone based on the color of their skin as opposed to say shooting them while trying to steal their wallet? Isn't all crime "hate" crime. All of these labels only serve to make the simple complicated.

Weighing the charges? For Pete sakes, clearly a murder, clearly a hate crime.

Sometimes it is best if a violent criminal doesn't survive his wounds.

Prayers to the guards family. He probably saved a lot of lives. I hope the shooter dies. I have no sympathy for trash like him even if he is 88 yrs old.

Find those who frequent his website (and the anti abortionist websites)...

...and who've offered words of support for these murderers...

...then come down on them like we would the Taliban or al Qaeda...

...there is NO difference between them...
