Tea Party; "You're Dead" Threat; Arizona - Sound Familiar?

Yes, it's familiar but read it anyway for the punchline:

A Tucson mass shooting victim was taken into custody Saturday after yelling "you're dead" at a Tea Party spokesman during the taping of an ABC-TV town hall event hosted by Christianne Amanpour.

The Pima County Sheriff's Office said J. Eric Fuller, 63, was involuntarily committed to an undisclosed medical facility, NBC News reported. The Associated Press said he was undergoing a psychiatric evaluation.

He faces charges of threats and intimidation and disorderly conduct, according to Tucson TV station KGUN.


Yes, a victim.

Fuller reportedly felt a bullet hit his knee Jan. 8, but didn't know he had also been struck in the back. The Arizona Daily Star reported, Fuller, a naval air veteran, drove himself to Northwest Hospital after being shot. He was later taken to University Medical Center where he was released two days later.


So, was he a right-wing fascist?

A left-wing progressive?

it wasnt a threat...it was a really bad attempt at showing the tea bagger just how quickly such an incident could occur

before making the statement, the perp took a picture....as in "bang, you're dead"

he and all the other victims should be in counseling...seems that he isnt
