Politics or a Mental Case in Tucson?

 

Are there political lessons to be learned from Saturday’s tragic shootings in Tucson? The talk show pundits on both the left and right would have us believe that the other side’s hyper-partisanship has been the catalyst for a growing vehemence and hatred that led to the terrible violence by one deranged killer.  Are there underlying causes to explain this shocking event that can be directed towards either side of the political spectrum?  But killings tragically happen, and birds fall from the sky.  Stuff happens, and the mentally deranged can do some terrible things.  We sure saw that in Tucson last week.  My column now posted looks at political opportunism, and the lack of mental care in America.  You can read it now by Clicking Here.
