Sick Stuff. Hope the hostages are all okay.

As I mentioned in the "Getosama" thread, regardless of party, violence against presidents is something we should be able to unversally condemn. The same thing applies to candidates and/or their staff.


Also, I hate to break it to Ray and anyone else here trying to make this a case of "evil right winger out to get poor liberal," but it looks like this guy's motivation is mental illness, not politics:

  • The man's ex-wife told FOX News that his name is Troy Stanley, and that he is a paranoid schizophrenic who has not been taking his medication.

    She said he has delusions that he has a chip implanted in his head


Let's keep a good thought for the hostages, and even the hostage taker's family. This is a hell of a thing for both of them.


That's funny. I've been watching the news since 2 and I haven't heard anything about schizophrenia. I've heard he's depressed and a "character" but nothing this crazy.
