Yes, he is a humanitarian following the long line of GOP do-gooders such as Richard Nixon and George Wallace who never saw a war they didn't want to start or elongate or a minority they didn't want to shaft.
Some states in our country have unethical laws that mirror the bigotry of their populace. Suppose Obama has a town hall in Missouri? He's fair game there. He better not make any threatening gestures, thoughts or words.
The article "Vigilante justice: KC man shoots shoplifter, walks free" at
http://rawstory.com/blog/2009/09/kc-man-who-shot-shoplifter/
describes how Bill Miller pulled out a 9-mm pistol, which he had a Utah concealed-carry permit for, and shot the suspect of a store robbery.
The article states "Although police and prosecutors haven't confirmed to the press that they won't charge Miller, Miller told the Fox affiliate that police told him he won't face charges."
The article has a comment "Kill her for stealing food.. is that a Republican position? I hope she gets a reality show and karmas your asses, you sick "conservative" scum. Shoot a woman for stealing meat. Funk that noise. The manager put himself in his position. What if the person the idiot bystander shot was a cop? Lots of different conservative views I imagine. Go watch yer Glen Beck you id'yots. I'll pray you lose yer job tomorrow."
That is how life is in the US these days. Every one of us could lose our jobs today and then we'd soon be in the same sorry place of the shoplifter or the hell that Miller resides in every day. And we've seen those gun toting thugs at so many town hall meetings and hope for the best all the while realizing the worst is just a shot away. And the White House can only go along with it because if they don't they lose the few votes they get from gun owners.
So we have a country in which those fighting against health care reform are fighting against their own self interests. Why--Because they hate Obama and the Democrats more than they are concerned for their own well-being.
And if one of them has a bad day and they get an itchy trigger finger who knows what havoc will ensue?
