And so it begins:
1) ABC news reports that the Aurora, Colorado shooter, one James Holmes, may be a Tea Party member. They base this speculation on the fact that there is a Tea Partier named Jim Holmes in the Denver area. ABC News later retracts and apologizes, since it’s not the same guy. (I smell a lawsuit…)
2) Breitbart reports that the James Holmes they’ve tracked down is a registered Democrat.
3) Some “private investigator” reports that Holmes was linked with the OWS movement.
“Lone psycho whackjob,” absent any further data, seems as likely a story as any But an OWS link does make a measure of sense, since the badguys in “Dark Knight Rises” are clearly “Occupy Gotham.”
