Hmm… Pictures of Representatives in cross hairs, Sarah promoting images of her shooting guns in the media… what would she expect. I REALLY hope big media exploits this exactly for what they should. Palin inciting violence. Period. She’s f’n sick.
She bears some responsibility for this act. Regardless of what her thought process was she had to know that there are some really sick people out there who take the current atmosphere of vitriol seriously. I seriously hope that in the haze that is the dumbed down american public that somehow intelligence, human intelligence will break through and we will see how wrong this is; and add Beck, Limbaugh, and Hannity along with Palin to the ranks of the unemployed. She should not be elected dog catcher over this.
This is exactly what happens when you act irresponsibly. Putting target symbols on people and then claiming you don’t really mean it is the height of ignorance and arrogance. I pray for those who were injured and killed in this senseless act of barbarism. Get ready Sarah, your 15 minutes of fame are about over, just like the sales of your last book.
Sarah Palin should be arrested for conspiracy to commit murder for these deaths. What a horrible woman.
I wouldn’t be surprised if she WANTED these people to die.
The shooting is more than likely an indirect result of the diatribe from the likes of Palin, Beck, Hannity, Limbaugh, O’Reilly, and other such right-wing nut jobs. They bang the drums of hate constantly in the hopes of affecting “just one”. Well, they finally got their wish. Oh, they’ll get all cuddly and such as far as their “condolences” go but they’ll be right back to their hate mongering when the studio lights and microphones turn back on. Also, let’s see which one of those previously mentioned nut jobs is the first to blame this on Obama. You know it’s gonna happen.
Oh I new this would happen. The body’s weren’t even cold yet and left started blaming the right. Appalling! Show some respect for the victims and their families, will you?
Responsibility bears with the perpetrator, not Sarah Palin. What the hell? The guy was an emotional unstable numb nut that was against government. Inform yourself before you spew hate, and possibly rial another nut up.
John people like you are frightening! Since when does a MAP of the U.S showing specific areas a political party feels the need to focus campaign efforts on, constitute liability in a horrible act like this? I guess “Freedom of Speech” in this country is now only okay for the left wing, and when the right wing voices anything, they are citing violence? Are you for real? YOUR attitude is one of the reasons our great country is going down hill!
