@matt_munsey I'm actually here through SXSW unless something comes up. So yes, absolutely. Sushi maybe? And let's get some meetups going.
@kleinemocha the catalinas are very pretty like that. I've seen it snow in Tucson snowflakes the size of my hands.
@matt_munsey me toooooo. How are you btw? I owe you a phone call! How were your holidays?
Just FYI, I almost went grocery shopping at that very Safeway today in Tucson. I decided to sleep in instead. So yeah, I'm a bit shaken up.

@claudia_snell I'd like to continue to hope myself, so yes :)
history tells us that we don't seem to be capable of agreeing without violence very often, @claudia_snell
@pat_ramsey Believe me, I'd LIKE to blame Palin for everything. But she's just not smart enough to be blamed for *everything* :X
@mikecane you do like a good intellectual grapple, dontcha? ;)
Don't attack me folks. I'm just working through ideas of personal freedom vs. responsibility and free speech. Just a bit complicated y'know?
I do think the hateful rhetoric is dangerous in a 22 year old's confused/sick mind. I suffer over the absence of personal accountability.

@Bhooshan I live down the street from where it happened, and yes, I am very upset.
@mikecane I'm on Prozac. I like pot too. And alcohol. Does that make me a deeply ill, violent person? Ill, perhaps. Violent, no.
And of course with freedom, there comes responsibility. THIS is the pain point. We are a nation - a world - who seems to forget this.

The US Constitution allows for the hate-fueled rhetoric inasmuch as it allows for the ownership of guns. The idea was individual freedom no?

Most folks who know me know I am no fan of Palin or the Tea Party cabals but let's blame the perpetrator, who is in fact the one to blame.
