Ex-Lawmaker Russell Pearce (R-Acist) blames the victims

http://www.azcentral.com/members/Blog/PoliticalInsider/167107

"...Had someone been prepared and armed they could have stopped this "bad" man from most of this tragedy. He was two and three feet away from folks, I understand he had to stop and reload. Where were the men of flight 93???? Someone should have stopped this man. Someone could have stopped this man. Lives were lost because of a bad man, not because he had a weapon, but because noone was prepared to stop it. Had they been prepared to save their lives or lives of others, lives would have been saved.

All that was needed is one Courages/Brave man prepared mentally or otherwise to stop this it could have been done. When seconds count, police are ony minutes away......."

I can't believe this stupid piece of shit is running for office AGAIN!!

It's so easy to sit in your arm chair and criticize the victims for not being "brave." has this man ever done on brave thing in his liife. I would call him a pig, but i think pigs are great animals. Big fucking jerk.

The dude was wearing military-grade body armor! Even if someone HAD been armed and managed to get a shot off, it wouldn't have done much good!

Besides, there were members of the U.S. military in that theater. Is he calling the men and women of the Armed Forces COWARDS??? How DARE HE?
