The legendary Joshua Holland has a write-up on the Knoxville Shooter. It appears that the guy was a major consumer of FOXoid/TalkRight literature. It looks like listening to Michael Savage’s radio show and reading his books can turn you into a hunter of liberals.
Inside the house, officers found “Liberalism is a Mental Health Disorder” by radio talk show host Michael Savage, “Let Freedom Ring” by talk show host Sean Hannity, and “The O’Reilly Factor,” by television talk show host Bill O’Reilly.
The shotgun-wielding suspect in Sunday’s mass shooting at the Tennessee Valley Unitarian Universalist Church was motivated by a hatred of “the liberal movement,” and he planned to shoot until police shot him, Knoxville Police Chief Sterling P. Owen IV said this morning.
Adkisson, 58, of Powell wrote a four-page letter in which he stated his “hatred of the liberal movement,” Owen said. “Liberals in general, as well as gays.”
So he went to a Unitarian Church and opened fire with a shotgun. He killed two and injured six people that he didn’t even know. He did it because “he could not get to the leaders of the liberal movement…[so he] targeted those that had voted them into office.” Isn’t that special? He probably thought he was justified in killing people that had ‘mental disorders’ and were trying to turn the county into a giant bathhouse.
Let me ask y’all a question. In all your blogreading or listening to Air America or watching Phil Donahue or Keith Olbermann on your teevee, have you have ever heard a Democrat or a liberal advocate the murder of a political opponent or the destruction of, say, the Colt Tower in San Francisco or the New York Times Building in Times Square? Have you ever heard any of these liberals talk about taking an opponent’s life, freedom, or property without due process of law?
That’s probably why you haven’t seen some deranged liberal walk into a megachurch and try to take out a conservative or two. The Right in this country feeds off demonization. It’s lucrative and it keeps them in power. That’s also why they are practically begging for another terrorist attack so that they can refill their fear-tank, which is clearly running on fumes at this point.
One more question…do you think Michael Savage will lose any sleep over the people that got killed at least in part because of his incitement?
