Sheriff blames free speech as likely cause of Arizona massacre

No, the Sheriff did NOT blame free speech. Some guy who writes a column "took it there". That columnist is just some guy who didnt learn from yesterday's lesson that fabricating outrageous assumptions and putting them in print is part of the problem.

The Sheriff blamed irresponsible vitriol, irresponsible free speech.

Just like the guy who shouts 'fire' in a crowded theater and who is responsible for 6 trampling deaths is guilty of irresponsible free speech..

The Sheriff is just the guy who is at this ground zero, picking up the bodies. He's the guy being handed outrageous mandates by a state legislature just as crazy and guilty of vitriol as the shooter.

Hip,

No one here wishes you pain levels. People have a right to have a say so in their medical treatment- to include opiates for pain.

Some of you posts in the past hinted that you were overly doped up, when using unbecoming language to express your thoughts.

IMO many people have been there- in regards to some sort of medical thing. Some worse then others.

If you are nothing but nice to others- then such a comment would be mean. However- you have displayed contempt for others and now you do not like when it is done to you.

Either way- pain sucks, and I hope you succeed in remedies of the pain levels.

The DailyKos put a BULLSEYE on Gabrille Giffords way back in 2008, and again just two days before the shooting. Of course, the DailyKos removed same right after the shooting.

I'm sure it'll be off Palin's website soon as well.

That is correct, and anyone who thinks that only those on the right or only those on the left do it are equally as stupid.

Exactly LT. But, as so many have pointed out, to point a finger at any one person for causing this person to go off the deep end in such a horrific way... just cant be done.

We can't honestly say that target graphics have a direct link to political assassinations no. The debate should be at a slightly higher level such as why do people, who can communicate with clarity, choose to use language in a blunt way that leads to misinterpretation?

Furthermore why isn't there much clarification of a statement when proxies put a different meaning to those statements? Sometimes letting people misinterpret you is convenient. Means you can up the hostility but not own such hostility. If someone was saying things on my behalf, people that barely knew me, you could be sure that I'd be doing all I could to make sure such misinterpretations or blatant misrepresentations didn't stand on the record.

I was never suggesting it was any one person. It has been a collective. I believe I said I felt that was the case in my previous post.

Not you, LT. Others have been fingerpointing all over the place... mostly towards Palin. While i believe her choices in regards to the bullseyes were bad choices, that alone did not make all this happen. No single event did. But combined, in agreement with you, i cannot believe it didnt affect many.

Lest we should think it's just the lefties trying to make political hay from this atrocity:

What a fucking bunch of shits.

I hope you don't think they are righties.

I am surprised, with all the hate and unbalanced souls, no one has targeted this hate group.

Maybe there is a Devil
