Why no outcry?

On the same day as the Ft Hood shooting (where the SUSPECT is a Muslim soldier) there was a “disgruntled employee” shooting at an office building in Florida and the next day a similar shoot-em-up at a clinical lab involving the first victims ex-boyfriend. We also started getting plenty of Hate comments saying amongst other things that All Terrorists should be Crucified.

People were calling in to “Gunny” Bob and Rush Limbaugh and Fox News, Glenn Beck, Michelle Malkin, all the usual Hate-Speech Cowards… demanding that Muslims be rounded up as suspected Terrorists.

The difference in the three shootings, really, was only one of Scale. People have done similar shoot-em-ups  and most were subdued  or killed before reaching the same count as Ft Hood.

When a Hate-Freak named Akinsson at the urging of The Hate Radio Chorus started to shoot up a Liberal church in Knoxville Tennessee, fortunately he was subdued before mowing down the entire congregation, especially the first group he was targeting, the children of the Church, (Why do “conservative” Terrorists like killing kids?) but unfortunately not before he managed to kill two church members. Had he succeeded, his body count would probably have tripled the body count from Ft Hood, but there was no Outcry from the Right Wingers, no calls from Michelle Malkin and Beck and Limbaugh and “Gunny” Bob or any of the other Cowards who infest Hate Radio, and the local Lunatics worship them as gods… NO call from them to have Right Wing “christian conservatives” rounded up and detained indefinitely as “potential terrorists.”  Nor for Eric Rudolph, same thing, set a Nail-bomb and then said he didn’t actually want to hurt or kill anybody… as an act of “christian” Terrorism. Scott Roeder, same kind of murderous bullshit.

NO outcry. After the other two shootings within a day of Ft Hood, NO outcry to treat ex-employees or ex-sexual partners as Terror Suspects.

No calls to intern anybody who gets fired or dumped by his girlfriend on the same Guilty Until Proven Innocent In a Kangaroo Court system.

Of course, that’s probably because the Hate Freaks like Malkin and “Gunny” and Beck openly incite the murders of Americans who they believe forfeited their rights as Americans by being politically, racially, ethnically or religious Non-Conformists, as in, daring to not be the Lily White Christian Right Wing Freaks they Demand that we be.

Maybe I’d better shut up, eh? or Malkin and Gunny will incite some of their coward disciples to come after me.
