....from getting any credit. Right-Wingers cannot do that much shredding, cutting, and denying of the social safety net and not have an effect on people’s mental and physical health. Think of the extreme acts of violence and property damage caused by people who have lost their jobs or homes. Uncounted numbers have committed suicide because they could not pay back a student loan, or burned down their homes to prevent giving it to the bank in foreclosures. Others, like the Colorado shooter James E. Holmes, go ‘postal’ and take out as many people as they can as revenge for their economic and financial problems.

After he booby-trapped his apartment with explosives, James Holmes walked into a theater Friday night and opened fire on a crowd waiting to see the first showing of the new Batman movie. He shot scores and murdered a dozen. Holmes acted for reasons unknown, but his actions were pure evil.

His actions also were his alone.

It doesn’t matter if he was bullied as a kid, recently dumped or whatever else anyone comes up with as a possible motive. Nothing “caused” him to do this other than whatever evil lives inside him.

But that hasn’t stopped many progressive...
