Damn right this nitwit is a Tea Bagger, a conservative and a Republican. He told his hostages he was angry over taxes, Barack Obama and big government. Especially the government taking over our right to bear arms. Any of that ring a bell in your political travels? Gosh… Any doubt this guy was egged on to this by talk radio, Tea Bag rallies and Sarah Palin rhetoric?
Warren ‘Gator’ Taylor had four loaded handguns on his person and what authorities called 5 pounds of "common" plastic explosive. Common? I guess that’s the kind you pickup from the quick sell shelf there in the checkout line at the Walmart.
Gator also said he was angry with the government for taking away our right to bear arms? MY GOD MAN! The NRA has politicians running so scared that gun control statutes are being rescinded in every state most every day! In fact Tennessee and Arizona just passed laws PROMOTING taking weapons into bars. After all, you never know when someone may bump your quarter on a pool table. In fact the NRA is lobbying to allow them at sporting events. Again, you just never know when a fan or player from the OTHER TEAM may need a little lead to the head.
Gator, an x marine, was like all Tea Baggers – a law abiding citizen. Well except for a few felony convictions for sex offenses and attempted murder. Gee…
During the 9 hours he only shot a few times at only a few people, so let’s not be too harsh. Gator is just a REAL AMERICAN who has had enough of Obama’s socialism. And Hell, while holed up at the post office he ordered up Marlboro’s and pizza for the hostages. He’s a nice guy with some c4.
Gator, like the man who did in the four cops from his front porch in Pittsburg a few months back, is a DIRECT RESULT of how extreme the hate speech is getting on talk radio and Tea Bag rallies. And it is going to get worse next year what with a weak health care bill voted upon by 60 "criminal" Senators, and signed by the Socialist in Charge.
