Gabrielle Giffords Explains the Danger of Right Wing Hate & Violence

This was originally Aired on March 25th, 2010.
TUCSON, Ariz. -- A gunman unloaded a semiautomatic weapon outside a busy supermarket Saturday during a public gathering for Democratic Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, killing Arizona's chief federal judge and five others in an attempted assassination that left Americans questioning whether divisive politics had pushed the suspect over the edge.
Giffords, 40, is a moderate Democrat who narrowly won re-election in November against a tea party candidate who sought to throw her from office over her support of the health care law. Anger over her position became violent at times, with her Tucson office vandalized after the House passed the overhaul last March and someone showing up at a recent gathering with a weapon.

Police say the shooter was in custody, and was identified by people familiar with the investigation as Jared Loughner, 22. U.S. officials who provided his name to the AP spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to release it publicly.

You haven't cited NOT one source or incident. All anecdotes, conjecture, & hearsay; in other words pathetic...

Allen West is an idiot... the dumbass aligning social justice with communism. This is your reference??? Your an idiot for using him!

[Nathanielc2]

LOL...no, you white Christians! Those are your own words I was dissecting dumbass... You are boring now. Peace

[Nathanielc2]

Sacred honor...? Thieves, liars, racists, bigots, misogynists, religious fanatics, murderers & hypocrites... is NOT sacred honor!

Fortunes...? By robbing, mudering, & enslaving every natural resource from human beings to oil! Your "fortunes" has the blood of innocence on them... cursed!

Rights... to behave as Satan would with impunity. As if he was on Earth but in flesh but in legion...

This is insanity!

[Nathanielc2]

You are insane. You can't even name one racist thing Obama has done can you? So this is the racist conservative white Christian mindset. This is what Obama has been facing? The more I talk to ppl like you the more I realize that almost 20 years ago when a Black female told me "white ppl are the devil," she was right. I refused to believe her but the more I talk to white ppl free to spew their beliefs hiding behind a keyboard & impunity, the more I see she MAY have been right. But not all whites!

[Nathanielc2]

...and yet you still respond. You forget, the wind has the power to BLOW trees down.

[Nathanielc2]

So, by your own words & diposition your race is still the racist, murdering, Christian hypocrites that have a sworn allegiance to darkness... Now I understand who the "PALE" horse was that hell rode and death followed closely behind. Where ever you white racist Christians go death ALWAYS follows. History proves that consistently. So, you are open to murdering innocent; Blacks, Hispanics, Asians, gays, non-white Christians, race traitors (liberals), etc. Sounds like another crusade...

[Nathanielc2]

Just to let you know... there were around 40 Democrats that switched party from 1960 to 1975... mostly southern states! I chose 1975 b/c that's when the racist Mormon church started to allow Blacks as members. It took 15 years AFTER civil rights for YOUR candidate's religion to LET Blacks in... very interesting!

And the numbers increase drastically during the 80's & 90's from Dems to GOP when Blacks were running in the Democrat Primaries… VERY INTERESTING!

TRY HARDER...

[Nathanielc2]

LOL... I did not call Sowell a racist... I called YOU one, which was proven above with your racist rants from this video & others; not to mention your old picture. Texas SB & the Bible were references of how certain ppl like to change history to suit an apologetic and/or political agendas! Being cynical?

A liar, a racist, and now you cannot comprehend what you read nor respond adequately while presenting a point to counter what was actually SAID... this is too fun!

TRY HARDER...

[Nathanielc2]

You are a racist... so tell us, what party do YOU belong to & WHO will be voting for?

Many books and authors LIE. Just use Texas Board of Education as a small reference to view the changes (lies) they put in the history books for schools. Not the mention how conservatives Christians wanted to rewrite the bible to promote free market principals & conservative values... the deliberalization of the KJ bible.

TRY HARDER...
