  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Going to lead with this: He also told police he could smoke more weed than Willie Nelson, and that he was taking Zoloft to treat PTSD and mental health disorders.

Docs: Man arrested in I-5 shooting said he was an armed militia on a mission

According to court documents, a man told police Simmons approached his vehicle and said, "Are you loyal to the country?"

Another man told police he was walking on the shoulder of I-5 when Simmons drove up and asked him if he was a U.S. citizen and told him to get in.

The man hesitated and police say that's when Simmons fired a shot at him. He jumped the center barrier of the freeway to take cover.

Simmons was agitated and making statements that police were violating the Constitution, and were traitors to the nation.

Police say they also found several anti-government ramblings on his Facebook page including 14 in the two days leading up to the shooting.

Anti-government? Huh. I figured this was an ICE audition tape.
