As Eminem said in Sing For the Moment:

"They say music can alter moods and talk to you
But can it load a gun for you and cock it too?"


I think you get into very dangerous territory when you start blaming the words of one person for the acts of another. Its shameful in my eyes to blame a rapper for your kids drug problem. Its even more shameful when we blame political pundits that express a interest in political change through democratic participation for the killings a nutcase committed.


But whats even worse is when we jump to conclusion like most journalist on the left have, especially as we find out more and more that their incendiary conclusions are incorrect. So far what has come out shows that what this guy did wasn’t politically motivated, at least in the classical connotation of left/right. The only reason this is a political topic is because of reckless liberals who made irrational connections. Like usual they let their emotions trump the facts.
