Townhall,Red State,Free Republic all oddly quiet

An entire segment of this nation's citizenry has been brainwashed into believing this nation's citizen government needs to be overthrown and replaced with the rule of law fashioned by the corporate elite.

... a few threads at the cesspool "Free Republic." Just title search "Las Vegas or Bundy."

But, they have enjoyed limited attention with the most common sentiment being:

1. the shooters were actually OWS/Socialist/Nazi (pick one) "Crazies" with little causation being found attributable to the influence or the hands of the republican right wing, the tea party, wingnut talk radio, rampant gun fixation and non-existent gun laws - or the 24/365 psychosis of hatred and bigotry that is and has been the website FR for the last eighteen years;

2. any reference to the "Bundy" ephemera in the matter is a "false flag," blah, blah, blah.

I would give my left nut at the moment anyone definitively traces either or both of the two shooters to an identity at RimJob's vile shit-house.

11. Maybe because a concealed carry holder got killed at Walmart?

and because the cops had open carry guns as well. At least 3 "good guys with guns" lost their lives at the hands of armed RW extremists who supported Rand Paul and the Tea Party.
