I cannot deny that my immediate, kneejerk reaction was that the shooter was tea party affiliated. And when early reports came out (erroneously) that he was, I said I wasn't surprised. But when things shifted away from that I was also willing to say I fucked up and revised my opinion.
I think that a lot of people refusing to back down are afraid to admit they might be wrong, and others are blinded by their hatred toward the party. because yes, he has apparently said some things that point toward radical right wing ideologies (haven't read them myself), but nothing that ties him definitively to the tea party.
Amongst others (naturally the news only picks up on those two).
"Books: I had favorite books: Animal Farm, Brave New World, The Wizard Of OZ, Aesop Fables, The Odyssey, Alice Adventures Into Wonderland, Fahrenheit 451, Peter Pan, To Kill A Mockingbird, We The Living, Phantom Toll Booth, One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, Pulp,Through The Looking Glass, The Communist Manifesto, Siddhartha, The Old Man And The Sea, Gulliver's Travels, Mein Kampf, The Republic, and Meno."
