Wishing peace, comfort, and healing to the Johns Family. May souls be blessed in the sacrifice of Tyrone Johns. May All folks following whatever extremist/hate groups consider their actions, so the life of Tyrone not be in vain.

I pass the museum every day and will now be reminded that life is fleeting and precious, so we must do the best we can, to help those while we can. Tyrone like many of us went to work yesterday with an expectation to return home to be with family. While Tyrone wasn't granted that chance, throughout all the blogging, make sure you spend time with folks who mean the most to you. Tomorrow is not promised, so make it count TODAY!

No politicizing or preaching here, just prayer. Pray also for the von Brunn family and all others who may identify with James' ideology.

It is saddest yet when the brave give their lives so that the weak and misguided can make a foolish point.

I hope Stephen and his family find peace.

Thank you kindly for your sacrifice… Stephen you saved many lives.

Thanks CP for putting a human face on the latest victim of hateful terrorists. And thanks to the other security guards who stopped the murderer before he got any farther.

Another victim of the right-wing homegrown American Taliban "Christian" terrorist movement - RIP, Mr. Johns. Will the fascist FBI ever take on these homicidal lunatics? or will the FBI continue to ignore these racists?
What about the Maryland State Police? They were so eager to spy on peace activists they probably had no time to spy on true threats to the nation's security like this cretin who killed this good man yesterday.
Obama & the politicians use this tragedy to bolster their popularity, but are too cowardly to take on these racist misogynist criminals. When the same law enforcement tactics are used against the right-wing criminals as are used against Al Quaeda, wake me up, it'll be a new day in America.

My thoughts are with the family of Stephen Johns and my prayers are that his soul find eternal rest.

And with the families of the doctors and health workers murdered by anti-choice activists.

"Home-grown" terrorists are the real danger, but the 100,000 or so armed and dangerous right-wing extremists, the pool from which these cold-blooded killers emerge cannot be "profiled" the way Muslim and Arab-Americans are.

Why, hell, I could be targetted for speaking my mind on this and no one will protect me.

The neo-Nazi ideology is free to roam the internet and the media and groups around the country, recruiting and spreading their message.

They are not targetted by the feds because (a) they might be useful when things get rough among the poor, a d (b) they are a core of the voter base that Republican and conservative Democrats don't want to alienate.

May his memory prove a blessing - all comfort and blessings to his family.

Thank you for not letting this hero go by the wayside in the tide of evil against which he fought.
