Ironic since Zorkorist appears to be drunk when he goes on his post rampages, responding to himself.
Anyone else notice that Michal1980 has said nothing against this attack? He must be in favor of this attack. Ditto Zorkorist. Oddly, Hilary & Sanders both came out and condemned the attack - Zorkorist asked us if we're drunk to support them.

Yes, it'd be interesting to explore where people stand on Fox News's liability in promoting a false campaign against planned parenthood. One which continues to be indisputably believed by many across the nation. Which this shooter obviously believed... and followed through on.
The "gotcha" videos aren't what they claimed to be, but did Fox ever retract those stories and issue apologies for them? Did they carefully present them in a way to help weasel out of any responsibility in cleaning up the mess that they promoted?
If they coach their stories with "claim" and "report to" and "may" before promoting, with great prominence, the false narrative, are they absolved of the consequences of broadcasting it? Maybe it's a legal way of getting out of trouble, but is it moral to lead people to false facts and false conclusions? To infer lies upon the population?
If not legal trouble, it's certainly moral trouble. Do our laws need to change to apply to such cases?
That sounds entirely too reasonable for the United States.That's one big thing I love about the laws here. There is language specifically prohibiting "false or misleading" reporting on news programs.
A few years back a new channel, Sun TV tried to get those laws changed. It can best be described as a Fox analog. They wanted an addition to the language that prohibited false or misleading information of it was likely to cause harm.
Canadians rejected the idea swiftly and it was yanked. They went ahead with the channel anyway and it didn't make it to its second anniversary. Without misinformation and misleading they couldn't duplicate what Fox had down south.
This has nothing to do with Political views, and everything to do with Religious views.

Are you slut-shaming conservatives?

That's an interesting concept. Who decides what is false or misleading? What are the criteria? What body arbitrates disputes and what are the consequences of uttering a misleading statement?
While it seems like a pretty straight forward idea, I could see it becoming a clusterfuck of biblical proportions in very short order.
We have a keyboard tough guy in our midst, displaying all the stupidity endemic to the breed.Then why aren't the left leaning Christians that also oppose abortion out there shooting up abortion centers?
Answer: they aren't being spoon fed a steady diet of hate on the issue of abortion.
There are Christians on the left and right that oppose abortion but ALL the guys that use violence on abortion centers and doctors are righties -- every single one of them! There is a nexus of religion AND politics that's at work here and until you guys own up to that and change your ways we will continue to have wack job righty terrorists shooting up abortion centers and leaving bombs at sporting complexes (Atlanta Olympic park bombing).
You guys talk the talk but when the talk turns to violence you pretend to know nothing about it -- again, bunch of pussies!

I'd imagine its the same as libel laws. If you say something you better be able to back it up with some evidence.
Does anybody know how many of those shot were patients or staff at this PP location?

Your head is fucked up.Well we know that one of the people he killed was a very religious cop.
Most of the victims of Islamic terrorism are Muslims.
Just a coincidence...

I stand by every word I wrote and I note with interest your failure to counter any of my points!

What is there to counter? You're issuing an ultimatum, change your ways or expect more violence.
If my choice is between (1) a few acts of violence among a very large population, or (2) thought police controlling our opinions, personally I choose against thought police.
You fail to understand the concept that people posting on this forum are individuals, independent of anyone else in this country. Who specifically is your ultimatum directed towards? That's your failing. You need to form a realistic post with realistic demands before anyone can properly counter your points.
To throw out a situation in reverse political leanings, nearly a year ago I think this happened, an officer was killed by someone riled up by the black lives matter rhetoric. And the same people in politics were playing the exact same game as now, just roles reversed. Are you going to condemn it?
Are you going to change your ways? My cause is more important than this incident. This situation here is nothing new. Give it a week and it will be off the news reel forever, everyone on to their next new issue of outrage to insult others over.

Police issued a statement Sunday that said they would not discuss the gunman's motive, the type of weapon used or a timeline of events. Warrants in the case have been sealed.
Is not discussing those elements standard of practice pending the legal case or is that unusually hushed given the context?The two civilian victims have been identified:

And the RNC would like to thank the CSPD for their cooperation:
That's a very unusual move for this type of incident. The only thing I can think that would justify it is the private nature of PP and patient confidentiality. But even that seems a stretch.

That whooshing sound -Thank you for your brutal honesty! I wish more anti-abortion people would be like you and just step up and admit that they have no problem with innocents being wounded and killed in the name of their cause. Right now they are denying it has anything to do with their cause but at least you are embracing and accepting it as fact.
Your cause needs more people like you.
