- quomen, on 10/12/2007, -9/+96I'll be the first to blame the VA Tech school shootings on LCD televisions that were improperly cleaned with windex.
- knoobs, on 10/12/2007, -0/+54I blame Cho Seung-Hui.
- UGM2099, on 10/12/2007, -10/+63I've got a deal for you, us liberals will take the blame for every school shooting if conservatives will take the blame for every non-school shooting.
- hambend, on 10/12/2007, -4/+53I blame the shootings on Carrot Top. That ***** has got to go.
- hawkeye17, on 10/12/2007, -13/+59Your a moron if you really think liberals 'despise the very foundations this country was built upon'. Maybe you should go to college and learn something.
- jackelsmack, on 10/12/2007, -8/+49I heard Liberals are the cause of all duplicate stories on Digg too. And 404 errors. And blogspam. Curse those universal villains!
- littlebylittle, on 10/12/2007, -21/+61Newt Gingrich is an Insane Misogynistic Megalomaniac
http://www.realchange.org/gingrich.htm - dagnabbit, on 10/12/2007, -8/+38You wanna talk blogspam? How about your constant digging of littlegreenfootballs? Talk about a site's constantly spammed (and buried) on digg. At least thinkprogress is regularly voted to the frontpage.
To quote you from another LGF, anti-Muslim posting: "Nothing more then the inhumanity of muslms. Koranimals and their religion of peace." Nice. You must've been at the top of your class. Tool. - aussieNickuss, on 10/12/2007, -2/+32Am I the only one getting a bit tired of posts about "[someone] blames the VT Massacre on [something]"??
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -4/+34A Republican exploiting tragedy to blame everyone that doesn't agree with him, color me shocked
- vatosplace, on 10/12/2007, -9/+37Someone stop Liberals from killing the kittens!
- dshPls, on 10/12/2007, -10/+33You're a loon, a conspiracy theorist. No better than the 9/11 truthers around here that preach insane strawmen and follow Alex Jones into oblivion, Except you follow Ann Coulter, and somehow, being a fascist gives you pride.
- reddevil3, on 10/12/2007, -6/+28If there weren't any liberals, women would still not be able to vote, black people would still be picking cotton....etc. etc.
And btw, do you think it's a coincidence that most universities are "liberal"? Education and liberalism go hand in hand. - PATSCRU, on 10/12/2007, -10/+32so....you're saying that this country was founded on rich white kids? and that it's our fault for installing professors who made cho hate the country that you said was founded on rich white kids?...Oh, the Hume-Hannity.
Being liberal is not a requirement to be a professor and has nothing to do with anything. Having an education, however, is. So please stop with the "liberal professors killed 33 students at VTech" bull because it just proves how little time you spent in front of a professor. - Tankslap, on 10/12/2007, -6/+27I blame Newt Gingrich on video games.
- danconia, on 10/12/2007, -3/+23I think this quote from Sam Harris' book "Letter to a Christian Nation" sums it up:
"While political party affiliation in the United States is not a perfect indicator of religiosity, it is no secret that the "red states" are primarily red because of the overwhelming political influence of conservative Christians. If there were a strong correlation between Christian conservatism and societal health, we might expect to see some sign of it in red-state America. We don't. Of the twenty-five cities with the lowest rates of violent crime, 62 percent are in "blue" states and 38 percent are in "red" states. Of the twenty-five most dangerous cities, 76 percent are in red states, 24 percent in blue states. In fact, three of the five most dangerous cities in the United States are in the pious state of Texas. The twelve states with the highest rates of burglary are red. Twenty-four of the twenty-nine states with the highest rates of theft are red. Of the twenty-two states with the highest rates of murder, seventeen are red."
Here's another link to a blog article about these so called 'moral' demographics and their statistics:
http://moristotle.blogspot.com/2006/12/some-demographics-relative-to-religion.html
And people can say what they want but you can also add lower divorce rates in Atheist couples to this list. Pwned Gingrich. - UGM2099, on 10/12/2007, -6/+26@ Akaji
No amount of guns is going to fix the mental health of the insane human beings who walk among us. There is the occasional psychopath that for whatever reason is not picked up by the system either for prior crimes or substance addiction. Watch out for these sober killers. If you see one, give him a drink, you just might be the enabler who saved 32 lives. - NoStoppingUs, on 10/12/2007, -23/+41what? seriously, put down the kool aid and state something remotely coherent.
gracias. - fyredragon, on 10/12/2007, -2/+19And lost in all of this is that there was a true hero as carnage reigned: A professor who was a Holocaust survivor.
- KibibyteBrain, on 10/12/2007, -0/+17The VT tragedy is Seung-Hui Cho's fault. Thats all there is too it. I know we'd all like to think we can do something to believe something else that we have the power to fix was the cause, but thats just not the case.
- geronimo, on 10/12/2007, -3/+19Newt left his cancer-stricken wife for a younger woman, meanwhile he preached about family values. No one should listen to Newt anymore.You know what he's going to say before he opens his mouth. "liberal elite".. It's like he's stuck in the 90's, we heard this before. How about "personal responsibility" Newt, remember that one...
- popothebright, on 10/12/2007, -10/+26"its the liberals in this country who despise the very foundations this country was built upon"
Which alternative history books are *you* reading? Liberals are desperately trying to protect the constitution. The current administration is easily the biggest threat to our Republic we've ever seen. Name one constitutionally guaranteed personal freedom which the Republicans hold dear and the Liberals would like to do away with.
Oh wait.. there is one: Gun Control. - gigamugged, on 10/12/2007, -6/+19"Remember this research that shows conservatives are happier than liberals? Newt might be onto something."
yup... the research has proved that ignorance is bliss. - TDR25, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11The Blame Game should be sold in Toys R US and other retailers...it's a real popular game!
- unloud, on 10/12/2007, -2/+13And all of this is ironic because people generally think that Christian populations are more "moral" than non Christian ones.
- Binarydemon, on 10/12/2007, -1/+11Why can't people just accept that Cho had mental health issues. Sure better gun control would have made it tougher for him to kill so many people, but that doesnt change the fact that he was determined to kill. He planned far in advance, if the gun checks had denied him access it is likely he would have choosen an alternate method to self destruct.
- lowryba, on 10/12/2007, -1/+11I am getting tired of people blaming the VT shooting on things other then the shooter.... seriously do we need to find something or someone to rally a death cry for?
- NSResponder, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10Rather stupid to blame anyone but the perp when something like this happens.
-jcr - ThinkBox, on 10/12/2007, -5/+14They also acount for 99% of all Videos in the News Section.
- Junkyarddawg, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10Poverty, low education, and religiousness go hand in hand.
- skywake, on 10/12/2007, -18/+27@Akaji
just.... WTF...
a gun in the hands of the wrong person was what killed the 32 - NeoRicen, on 10/12/2007, -2/+10There are only two things to blame: Poor assesment of Students mental health, and the ease of access mentally ill people have to weapons, that simple.
- lowryba, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8Guns don't kill people... apes with guns kill people!
- pgoetz, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Your solution is ... censorship?
Beyond this, Cho's professors referred him to mental health services, concerned that he might be a danger to himself or others. - Akaji, on 10/12/2007, -6/+13Everyone knows that good conservatives (aka those who are Christian) would NEVER masturbate, as it goes against the Bible's teachings. Right?
>.> - Rammsteined, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7I blame VT on a suicidal maniac! Honestly, why is it that nobody seems to be able to place the blame where it belongs these days?
Person 1: You drove into my car!
Person 2: *****, my boss made me work late!
Person 1: That's it! I'm suing your boss!
Every time I see this I want to scream at the top of my lungs "REEEETAHHHRRDD!"... - saigumi, on 10/12/2007, -3/+9I blame literacy. This wacko read too many books and wrote too much poetry and too many plays.
- imnojezus, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6@saigumi:
I'd hardly call what he wrote "literate". - Murdats, on 10/12/2007, -9/+15your right akaji, guns may have stopped this tragedy being as tragic
so could of him playing more counterstrike or something, maybe we should give all students a copy of counterstrike (actually that doesnt sound too bad)
or maybe if he was to drink more often, maybe all students should be given a $100 voucher for alcohol each semester (that also doesnt sound too bad)
maybe if he smoked, or..
actually im going to stop listing all the potential maybe's and what ifs that could of happened - michaelb1, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7Whats with conservatisms overuse of the word "elite"
To paraphrase Bill Mayer.
News flsh Newt, you ARE the elite. Are you a middle class working man? Do you have friends in low places and no political connections?
Didn't think so.
So quite talking to people like your one of us. Its the oldest trick in the book and smart people don't fall for it. - michaelb1, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Of course professors are liberal.
The problem is that liberals have been tarnished as "godless sodomites".
Professors are educated people (doesn't mean they don't do dumb things)
I'm sorry to conservatives but once your educated to a point where you know:
how stars form
how government operates
about civil liberties
you tend to beleive:
God might not exist
wars may be started for reasons other than those told to public
gay people should have rights also.
That makes you liberal according to conservatives but I guess we know truth has a well known liberal bias. - michaelb1, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5yes. extreme right.
- javip, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5lol @ conservatives
I hope we find another planet to inhabit soon.. then we can have one full of conservatives and another full of liberals, and have the conservative planet be a tv show we can just laugh at all day every day - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5"I believe its spelt happyness."
...you were trying to be phunny, right? - HypocriteDigg, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5The good ol' 'elite' talking point. Do people still fall for this tripe? Probably, since you still have neocon morons who constantly repeat un-founded talking points such as 'hollywood elite' and 'liberal media'.
- MaynardJK, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5And the dems would NEVER pull something that low!
/sarcasm
//not a pub or dem - kindrobot, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Desperation, meet your poster-boy.
- unknownunknowns, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5What about us educators that are so radical we don't even buy into the liberal/conservative false dichotomy? Why don't we get blamed for any tragedies?
It's lonely on the fringe. - SOULEVENT, on 10/12/2007, -3/+8Hmmm, "liberals" are to blame? I guess its the liberals fault GW and his cult had to LIE to Americans, Profit off a War, Murder hundreds of thousands of innocent people to right?
Newt Gingrich is a piece of HUMAN GARBAGE...last time I checked, it was his kind that get off on MURDER.
Lets blame the murders on Fox News and the Bush NeoCon movement, after all, they were taking a hit with Investigations in teh senate...and instead of focusing on their Crimes they have good ole Cho to give NeoCons something else to plaster on the front page...33 dead including the shooter, thats a nice VILELY Masonic number. I mean why blame liberals? Extreme Right are the ones WAY more use to murdering people to get their msg of hate across. AM I LYING?
I think Newt aught to look at his crystal ball again.
NeoCon response to homosexuality = become homosexual, molest children and blame in on the Liberal Movement
NeoCon response to terrorism = become terrorist and blame liberals for all your own evil.
Is Newt trying to get himself sent to HELL?
Lets see, how many people have Rosie Killed? Sean Penn killed? or any liberal for that matter?
We know we cant even count the murders of the "PRo Bush Movement".
In other words, what Newt was trying to say is that Americans have to want a police state not a democracy in order to stop future Cho's.
Newt, someone should punch you right in your ***** mouth and the mouth of all those LIKE YOU.
Let it be known, there isnt a DAMN soul in this country that supports Newt, Bush or any of their ilk that deserves an OUNCE of ***** respect. NOTHING THEY SAY IS EVER TRUE!!! - Kyrgizion, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Anyone named "Newt" shouldn't be making any statements at all, except about the witch who turned them into it.
