Boston Marathon Bombing from the NPR perspective.


Dina Temple-Raston in NPR’s All ThingsConsidered blames the Boston Marathon bombing on Right Wingers celebrating Hitler’s birthday. 
 


Transcript:

ALL THINGS CONSIDERED APRIL 17th.
Dina Temple-Raston provides insight into the Boston investigation.
The thinking as we’re reporting is that this is a domestic extremist attack. And officials are leaning that way largely because of the timing of the attack.

April is a big month for anti-government and right wing individuals. There’s the Columbine anniversary. There’s Hitler’s birthday. There’s the Oklahoma City bombing. The assault on the Branch Davidian compound in Waco.

So according to NPR we Right Wingers were having a party celebrating Hitler’s birthday, feeling bad about Columbine, sorry that Tim McVeigh was executed, crying in our beer about the death of David Koresh, so we decide to blow up Boston.
 
You really can’t parody these people because their fantasies burst though the outer limits of our imagination. 
 
And what the hell is right-wing about a couple of nut-job Goths in Columbine who decided to act out their rage about being rejected by the “cool kids?”
 
If committing acts of terror to try to bring down the government you hate is the mark of being a right-winger, that must make old Joe Stalin a right winger for this part in 1907 Tiflis bank robbery. Proving that NPR is not just delusional but ignorant.

I live for Hitler's birthday. Its the highlight of my year. Is it a fact or does it just seem that the more high brow you can sound the more ignorant you are?
