I have a tasteless joke to make, but I think I'll refrain from it.

The Arkansas Democratic Party Chairman died today from his injuries sustained when a gunman, who was shot and killed by police, opened fire in the Arkansas Democratic Party Headquarters today hitting only the Chairman.

My thoughts and prayers are with the Chairman's family and the Arkansas Democratic Party.

Here's mine: Arkansas Republicans were ruled out as suspects, as both of them had alibis.

I don't know, yet.  I've been out of the house since 4:30 CT this afternoon, so I haven't been able to watch the news.

Unless this was another lone nut with no ideological opposition, this is the second right wing terrorist attack in about as many weeks.

You are such a moron.  This dude went in and threatened people at the Baptist office a few blocks away.

Rest in peace.  My thoughts and prayers are with his family.  Did they ever figure out the motive?

And the first attack was when?

He was referring to the shooting at the Unitarian church in Knoxville a few weeks ago.

Regardless, there's no evidence this was politically motivated. I suspect they guy was just crazy, or maybe there was some sort of prior personal grudge.

What an infinitely weird way to run amok... unless Target has well-known connections to the Democratic Party and the Southern Baptist Church.

I think it was a disgruntled former employee.
