I won't draw any causal connections between what has been said and the actions yesterday. But since Jon Stewart was mentioned, I'll just agree with him on another thing he also said: that is very sad when we can't really tell the ramblings of a lunatic apart from what some politicians and pundits actually say.


And enough about the false equivalency bullshit. This attempt to look magnanimous by talking about "both sides" is tired. Yeah, people on the left 40 years ago may have said this, or someone today might have mentioned a gun or used a gunsight or whatever. But there is only one group (not even a whole party, just a group within a party) that has consistently talked about "second amendment remedies," "bullet box" and similar things with regards to congress.
