Colorado Shooter “Opinionated Socialist” and “Keynesian”
Don’t
expect Mark Potok to get on MSNBC and dissect the ideological
background of the latest high school shooter. It turns out Karl
Halverson Pierson, the teenager who wounded two Colorado high schools
students and then killed himself, was a dyed-in-the-wool liberal. Not
only did Pierson have “strong beliefs about gun laws and stuff,”
according a student who attended a class with him, but the teenager was a
“very opinionated Socialist,” News.com.au reports. From the Denver
Post: In one Facebook post, Pierson attacks the philosophies of
economist Adam Smith, who through his invisible-hand theory pushed the
notion that the free market was self-regulating. In another post, he
describes himself as “Keynesian.”
He
also attacked Republicans for their stance on Obamacare, climate
change, and gun violence. In short, he was a staunch Obama liberal. The
Southern Poverty Law Center and other liberal groups invariably try to
place the blame for many shootings on patriot groups and libertarian and
constitutionalist political ideologies. In November, they claimed the
LAX shooter, Paul Ciancia, was driven by a New World Order and Federal
Reserve conspiracy. Other liberals jumped on the bandwagon. The liberal
website Raw Story, for instance, linked “New World Order” to a
“conspiracy-minded right” and, more specifically, media figures Alex
Jones and Glenn Beck. It stopped short of directly blaming Jones and
Beck for inciting a murder committed by a mentally disturbed individual
who threatened to commit suicide prior to the attack. If the anti-Second
Amendment left bothered to follow through on its own faulty logic, the
SPLC and talking heads at MSNBC would cite John Maynard Keynes, Karl
Marx and Frederich Engels as inspiration for Pierson’s attack. This, of
course, would be nonsense. Individuals alone are responsible for
committing murder, not political ideology or supposed lax gun laws. Info Wars
