The Tucson Blame Game

To blame conservative personalities and politicians for the Tucson shooting is as absurd as blaming vandalism on popular music, i.e., the Glee TV program has a song out "I Bust the Windows Out Your Car" does that mean whenever there is vandalism that the songwriter is to blame? What about the performer, or the recording studio, or the TV stations for broadcasting the performance of the song? Ridiculous? That is what the politicians and media is trying to do in regards to the Tucson shooting. Starting with the local Sheriff, Pima County Sheriff, Clarence Dupnik (D), politicians have been trying to squelch free speech that disagrees with the current administration and direction the country is being driven. They are saying that the "vitriolic" atmosphere caused this criminal to shoot these people, while people who know the criminal say that he was anti-politics and a pot head, and that his downward spiral began with his being romantically rejected in high school. In a panic politicians are trying to pass more laws, restricting honest citizens more, instead of enforcing the laws that exist.
