No i definitely think he's an unbalanced nut myself, and I'm not trying to paint him as one or the other. I've just read through this thread and seen you posting articles that try to credit him as right wing as far as his supposed connection to American Ren. (which may have been disproved) and his hatred of certain political leaders. Yeah bsams Gman and others do it in response too but at least they aren't backtracking and suddenly changing the focus of the argument from "he's this or that to he's just crazy".

I think if there were any thought behind Loughners beliefs it would be more fitting to say he was an anarchist, someone against all government, not just left or right.
