Freepers already spinning conspiracy theories.
I'm not going to speculate at all about the shooter or his motive.

Most of the Freepers are asking for prayers for the congresswoman.

But one asshole wrote this:


My guess is “false flag” incident. The Kenyan will probably put forth the notion that her seat should be filled by appointment. If Brewer takes the bait, it will be pretty much the end of the House of Representatives and we will officially be in the land of banana republic.

Of course, that’s a conspiracy theory, and we all know, no one in Obama’s administration would sacrifice a wobbly blue-dog for power. I mean, that’s kookery.

The only acceptable explanation is that this is a right-winger Tea Party Extremist.

If that’s the prevailing explanation, they will use it to crack down on gun rights.

Regardless of who did it, the government will use it to take power away from you and further tighten your shackles. You are their slave. They’re getting to the point where the trappings of freedom and democracy are becoming less and less useful.

This incident will be used against you, the American slave, regardles of who did it or why.

1. What fertile minds they have
Did you know that one seat in Congress shifts the power of the House?

Another racist wingnut who probably has his own plans to shoot someone.

2. They'll have to shoot a republican now
So they can perpetuate their "both sides are just as bad" bullshit.

People are beginning to catch on.

3. And they believe every bit of it.
I know people who appear perfectly sane and they believe this shit.

And some of them are extremely wealthy, which can be a problem.
