The exchange was caught on surveillance video, authorities say. Not only did Corkins have a Chick-Fil-A bag, he was carrying 15 sandwiches from the fast-food chain, whose anti-gay marriage stance the FRC recently backed. Corkins, of Virginia, will be charged with assault with intent to kill which carries a maximum 30-year sentence and carrying weapons across state lines, which comes with a maximum 10-year sentence, CNN reports. He reportedly bought his handgun legally within the past week. The complaint notes that according to his parents, Corkins "has strong opinions with respect to those he believes do not treat homosexuals in a fair manner." Mitt Romney has condemned the attack: "There is no place for such violence in our society," the candidate says. Wow. Crazy people on BOTH sides of the aisle. With apologies to Bob Dylan, truly, it appears that he had GAWD on his side.... No, this incident destroys the myth that potential mass murderers are strictly reserved *to be in the 'rightie-christian- fundie' club. "Corkins, who graduated from George Mason University in Virginia with a master s degree in education and human development in 2006, had recently been volunteering at The D.C. Center for the LGBT Community, a community center for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people in Washington." http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics...earch-council-... "Destroys" is a pretty bold statement. *If the ratio weren't like 20:1, you might have a case. Right wing outrage outpacing liberal outrage 20:1, doesn't make your case. Feeble try, Tim. Ever hear of the legal term "intent"? Didn't think so. WTF does intent have to do with the ratio of right wing vs. left wing violence? Besides, the number of people who show "intent" is far greater on the right than on the left. One guard gets shot in the arm by a lefty, 12 people die at a Batman movie by a loon with a Michelle Bachmann fetish. Those equal to you? We don't prosecute for intent. Otherwise Big Brother would have half the country in jail on morals charges. |
