[quote=AlreadyHome;876920]
Show me a thread 2 pages or more that didn't get hijacked..
and this is the politics forum....and yes, heartbreaking stories, lost and shattered lives...

President Obama visited those in the hospitals. He left them a telephone number to contact him if they ever needed anything.

Contrast that to a president flying over devastation due to Katrina, while 1500 Americans died over days due to no help.

Yes, I am unapologeticly proud of this President, and his connection to American citizens. He doesn't politically do everything I want, and I disagree with some of his policies, but compared to the wasteland we had previously, it's great to get back to having a human being in the office.

In the aftermath of Katrina the feds were too busy going door to door confiscating legally owned guns. The local police were nowhere to be found. Looters ran amok. Riot if your homicide statistics seperated gun homicides that are gang related the numbers drop a lot. I mean a lot. If the guns were to blame this would be happening ten times a day, every day, everywhere til the end of time. Why aren't more anti-gun zealots more concerned about this administration putting thousands of these weapons in the hands of the Mexican drug cartels, proven homicidal maniacs? Why the lies? Why the stonewalling? Why the cover up? I bet Holder was holding his breath til the guns in this massacre were ID'd.

So this is what it has come to, huh?

Embarrassing....

It was good of him to visit the victims and there families.

Some good did actually come of this.

wrong.. they only had 3 days notice to get out of the city..lol..n.o..three days..duh..many died due to recources bieng used ie airlifting people off of roofs ..that were to lazy to get out. thus not bieng able to get to the true needs of the people..not to mention the woman in la who didnt want gov help..im sure we are all tear eyed about his taking the photo op..

You must mean Governor Kathleen Babbling Blanco.

Wow. That's a great story.

I guess they are still worried about 11 people in intensive care, still worried some of them may yet die.

Not in the least. Will vote for this POTUS again in November, and glad to do it, compared to robot-lying-Romney, the corporate-owned puppet who hasn't changed a bit since his failed 2008 campaign run.

Pitching is shaky in that altitude.

incredibly embarrassing..

12 people killed, so many more hurt.. it is so fucl<ing sad when these things happen :(

Personally I want to try and remember the victims without giving the killer much thought. He's a sicko and will dominate the news, I wish he would stop being shown.

12 pretty amazing people :( makes my heart drop.

being an organ donor is so important and honorable!!

:zz:

way to turn a huge tragedy into Obama vs Bush, dumb fucl<

It was a great game.

I suppose Holmes can still pull out extra innings if one of his victims dies in the hospital over the next few days.

So, yeah, too soon.

Hey, stupid bi.otch, just pointing out that the people in the hospital loved the visit from the President, and that this POTUS has proven himself to be great in these situations, as a leader of this country. The Gabby Giffords mass murder, the wildfires, this mass murder ... this POTUS makes most American citizens proud - and has ensured the victims of these disasters are helped ASAP when the feds can offer it.

That's new for this county compared to the previous 8 years. And yeah, that's a good thing we should all be proud of. It's how every president, no matter their political affiliation, should act.

it's just not a funny topic Calzone Lord.


but hey... at least you didnt twist it into something political like some of our derby trail citizens did.

Meow! :D You doth protest too much. Yet you admit that before you even signed onto nerdy trail, you were more concerned with making it personal and finding something to whine about.

There's a lot of sadness in this world. People are dying all the time.

First you can't joke about rape, now you can't joke about some nut who was in-line for a PhD lighting up a bunch of people at the midnight showing of a Batman movie?

What else is there to joke about?

Polish folks, Jewish folks, African-Americans, Hispanics, Blondes, Women, Christians, Muslims..

all that funny stuff :D

Gays?

To get back to serious, it's been noticed that the press and Twitter, Facebook etc. are deliberately trying not to show the shooters' picture, or mention his name, unless they have to. Concentrating on letting the victims be the ones famous and most remembered out of this.

of course! gay jokes can be seriously funny sometimes.

:zz::(

Jokes about that are all played out.

When I saw this orange haired screwball in court today all whacked out on meds ... I laughed pretty hard.

Over 100,000 people were killed in the Iraq War -- tragedy is everywhere, everytime, everyday -- I realize we are supposed to feel a whole lot worse for these people because it happened in the United States at a Bat Man showing and because it's big news in our media.

The word "hero" gets tossed around too much. The three young men who lost theirs lives in order to shield their girlfriends from the bullets are without a doubt heroes.

I told my girlfriend that I would have used her to shield me.

Look at this friggen guy:

Was he a Broncos fan?

Broncs colors for sure.

I'm against capital punishment -- because I'm a liberal homo, I know -- but someone like that, you might as well have the head doctors spend a lot of time interviewing him, after that, euthanize him like you would a horse with broken leg, and study his brain to see what went wrong.

yeah, i'm also against the death penalty...but my visceral reaction to stuff like that is take him out and shoot him.
there was a guy a few years back, a criminal, who donated his body to science so they could study him. they froze him, and set up a wild machine to cut very, very thin layers of his body, from head to toe, so they could really study every little inch of him. it was weird watching that thing shave his body down like that.

wonder if they ever found anything useful.

I'm sure they will find that this guy is a little off in the head.

You know, I really haven't had much time to think about this, with it being summer and Saratoga and Del Mar going on and all...

But, isn't the obvious solution now to declare war on PhD's in neuroscience?

How long must we be terrorized by these vile, hatemongering bigots who just hate us for our freedom?!?

i don't know if he's off. i think it's natural to wonder, and to assume that someone must be nuts to do something like that. maybe he's just rotten, not loony. i don't know. at any rate, he won't do it again.

He was probably chugging Red Bulls and popping ADHD pills to study 20 hours a day. The sleep deprivation caught up with him.

I don't know...I still think he's faking this "insanity"..I mean..you have to be batsh*t crazy to do something like this, but I'm not buying it yet

:tro::tro: and i really cant believe he didnt get shot into swiss cheese when they did get him..

He will have a 0.00% chance with an insanity defense.

In a court of law -- you almost have to be ape-sh!t crazy, with the mind of a mongoloid and a complete inability to function in order to be viewed as insane.

As far as I'm concerned -- two of my four brothers are insane. They just don't have violent fantasies.

They also function well enough that they can pass themselves off as smart, normal, and popular when they have to.

The oldest one has a wife, two kids, has kept a steady good-paying job his entire adult life and was the cities best pitcher in high school. He's also 100% NUTS and even though he's not violent at all, he's almost got himself killed on several occasions by doing batsh!t crazy things and he is capable of saying some of the craziest sh!t you could ever imagine hearing.

The youngest, as profiled in esoteric, is a narcissist and a decorated criminal on top of being insane.

12 shot dead at in Aurora, Colorado
 

Which is why I thought the suggestion that we should all "call someone" about our loony relatives, friends, or co-workers was worthy of a "crass" joke.

Don't we all have a crazy uncle, a weird brother-in-law, or a nutty cat lady aunt that "bears watching?"

And who are we supposed to call about them without being regarded as some kind of nut ourselves?

Lighten up, people, and look out for those boys, Calzone Lord!

This one ended before innocents hurt..
