When I read her statement earlier today I was struck by the thought that she (as well as many people) may be confusing "liberal" with "libertarian." Much of what I've managed to glean out of the shooters ramblings on YouTube is pretty much down the path of the radical libertatians. Not many liberals going on about the gold standard, but it's a pretty common theme among libertarians. People do change, though, and this guy was obviously unbalanced and susceptible to some pretty crazy ideas.
