I watched CNN and saw something far different than what is being described in this thread.
First off...this guy had severe mental issues obviously.
But he wasn't a "Tea Partier" whatever that means.
Much like is done on GFY he seemed to enjoy trolling message boards and arguing points.
Apparently one of the forums he signed up for was a Tea Party discussion group.
He never even logged in. Just signed up for it and forgot about it apparently on a day when he signed up for a bunch of different forums.
That fact is why you can't trust people when they start trying to put their political agenda in their posts on here.
Also, I had heard that he was a "Nazi" because he flew a swastika.
From what I saw this morning on CNN...that's not true either.
He apparently owned a bar in LaGrange. And the city sent in under-21 undercover cops to buy beer. Guys that looked 21 but weren't yet.
His bartender didn't check their ID (local bar).
And the city shut him down.
So he hung a swastika calling the city officials Nazi's on his bar.
Here is a pic of him outside the bar from the local paper at that time:
Anyway, he wasn't a "Nazi". And nobody knows what his political affiliation is. Nor would that really matter.
He was a sick individual who murdered people. End of story. People politicizing this should take a step back and think about that instead of trying to push their politics down everyone's throat.
