Assassin's Politics Lean 'Left Wing, Quite Liberal'

"The Communist Manifesto" and Hitler's "Mein Kampf" were among the favorite reading materials of Jared Lee Loughner, the suspected gunman in yesterday's fatal shooting that reportedly left six dead and gravely injured a U.S. congresswoman.

Lougher, 22, listed those tomes among his favorites on his YouTube channel, in which he wrote that "conscience dreams" were a "great study" at his college, Pima Community College.

One user on Twitter, Caitie Parker, wrote she went to high school, college and was in a band with the gunman. She said she hadn't seen him since 2007.

Parker wrote of Lougher, "As I knew him he was left wing, quite liberal and oddly obsessed with the 2012 prophecy."

She also described him as "more left."

Lougher also left a trail of bold political statements.

Maybe now he was a bit disappointed in his "change". It seems to me he expected to commit suicide by cop yesterday by his actions. But who am I. The MSM will put their political spin on it, the Dems will introduce legislation to further protect ourselves from ourselves, The Repubs will shout and condemn, and we will somehow, somewhere lose another of our rights thanks to an unstable idiot in our midst.
And the unstable idiot will receive psychiatric care....
