Dammit, I hate it when I'm right...

This is a bit of 1990s retro I could have done without.

Hatred Said to Motivate Tenn. Shooter

I knew this would happen. Granted, I did jump to conclusions when this story broke over the weekend. I figured that anyone shooting up a UU Church was probably not an angry teen at the end of their rope due to parents trying to pray the gay and/or goth

I gotta tellya - I thought the same thing too when I first read about the shooting. "He's going after the members because they allow gays in the church." I hate being right.

I'm unconvinced we need to wait until Obama's the CiC before the right wing starts unspooling like a dropped ball of string. In the past three weeks there've been an alarming number of events, all involving dimbulbs on the far right and all involving some pretty scandalous and/or criminal behaviours. It seems entirely likely that the unspooling will also involve some collateral (or specific) damage to the arch-nemeses of the right wing, too.

Am I afraid? Not really, but to be perfectly honest, I am nonetheless a little more afraid than I was a month ago, actually.
