Holocaust Museum killer a “right-wing” fanatic?
Admittedly, I came to that conclusion when the story first broke. Then an interesting phenomenon occurred: facts came out. First this:
FBI agents visited the offices of the conservative Weekly Standard magazine yesterday after a shooting at the Holocaust Memorial Museum and told employees they’d found the magazine’s address.
…
The suggestion that the Standard may have been a target complicates any view of the racist shooter in contemporary left-right terms. Von Brunn’s white supremacist roots put him under the rubric of a “right-wing extremist,” but the substance of his views — which included everything from believing that President Bush may have been in on the September 11 attacks to denying that President Obama is an American citizen — are too far on the fringe to fit into conventional political classification.
And this:
Andrew Breitbart
“F.U. MSM: This Holocaust Museum killer creep job was a 9/11 truther (a left-wing phenomenon), hated Neo-Cons (Jews like me,) Bush, McCain and hated the right’s beloved Israel (also a leftist phenomenon, mostly) — and you — in conjunction with the Democratic Party try to say he is an example of the ‘far right’ that is against Obama — all for the sickening sake of political gain? We won’t forget this, you thugs.”
And this:
The media is a abuzed about this, and the lefty blogs are acting as though this being some nuance of the right.
Wrong. Let’s not forget that Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Louis Farrakhan, both antisemitic and neither considered spokesmen for the right.
But after some research it appears the shooter, James Von Brunn is in fact – despite the protestations of the Kos Kids – a registered democrat from Maryland.
So much for the “Right Wing Conspiracy”.
Yet the MSM still parrots the lie that this nutjob was a “right-wing fanatic”? I’m not saying he was a left-wing nutjob, merely that he was just a nutjob…period. But if the left really wants to play “pin the ideology on the psycho”, we’ve got plenty of ammo to work with, m’kay?
Also, did you notice that the MSM reported ad nauseum on the abortion doctor killing and this Holocaust Museum killing, but reports on the home-grown Muslim terrorist shooting the Army recruiters were not nearly as extensive?
Nope…no liberal media bias!

The local MSM in Memphis has surprised me by their coverage of the Muslim terrorist shooting. It’s been on almost every evening news show since the shooting but they emphasize more that the shooter was local Carlos Bledsoe than his Muslim name.
He’s been a Muslim for almost a year now but a local thug forever prior to that.

TNJ, that may be because it is more a “local” event for you. Here in Louisville (not that far from Memph) I hardly hear about it at all now. But the abortion Dr is still news.

I saw an article today where Von Brunn’s son was basically saying “My dad is a miserable, hateful POS; I’m sorry that he lived and the guard died.” I think this is interesting, because all too often some dirtball pops off a bunch of rounds and the family is mugging for the camera, saying “But he was a good guy – why did the cops have to kill him – he was turning his life around – etc, ad nauseum.”

Come on J if they label all the gun toting nutters as “right wing extremists” it will make it easier to take your guns and round you up.
