Sarah Palin launched a campaign to take back 20 House seats and remove those elected officials who voted for President Obama’s Health Care reform.  Seems innocent enough, unless one of those 20 members she targeted gets shot point blank in the head.  The Palin site is down for now, but a screen shot can be found at http://twitpic.com/3o7u8d. 

TUCSON, Ariz. – Rep. Gabrielle Giffords of Arizona was shot in the head Saturday when an assailant opened fire outside a grocery store during a meeting with constituents, killing at least five people and wounding several others in a rampage that rattled the nation.

Giffords was among at least 10 people wounded, and the hospital said her outlook was “optimistic” and that she was responding to commands from doctors. The hospital said a 9-year-old child was among the killed, and a U.S. Marshal said a federal judge was also fatally shot in the attack.-http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_congresswoman_shot

What a disgrace.  Apparently, everyday we exist in a charged political environment that is witness to threats against lawmakers.  That is just crap.  It is absolutely abhorrent, unacceptable behavior, no matter ones political affiliation to go out on a random or targeted shooting spree.

“For example, we’re on Sarah Palin’s targeted list, but the thing is, that the way that she has it depicted has the crosshairs of a gun sight over our district. When people do that, they have to realize that there are consequences to that action,” Giffords said in an interview with MSNBC.

Giffords’  friend, State Senator Linda Lopez confirmed the bullet entered Gillords head at her temple and exited through her temple.  Where the fuck were her body gaurds out of curiousity?

Let’s talk about a piece of shit, the suspected shooter.   Jared Loughner is a bizarre case unto himself. Washington Post via http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2011/01/08/AR2011010802422.html?hpid=topnews reported that, “A 22-year old man was taken into custody after being tackled by people in the small crowd after the shooting. One pistol was recovered and it had what police described as “an extended clip.”

The man was identified as Jared Loughner, who appears to have left a trail of Internet postings, including some that express convoluted observations about government. Law enforcement officials said they believed he was a military veteran.

His postings include: his myspace photos of a gun which may have been the weapon at http://twitpic.com/3o8ajp, and videos,  “Introduction: Jared Loughner,”

Additionally odd…”America: Your Last Memory In A Terrorist Country!” video,

Whatever ones artistic, linguistic or opinionated movies, articles, posts and opinions about the differences in American politics, one is NEVER entitled to go all Hannibal Lecter and go chomping on innocent people.  NEVER.

It was September 23, 2010 when Sarah Palin launched the new website certainly never intending to incite violence.  Meanwhile President Obama claims a ‘Tragedy for Our Entire Country’  at http://bit.ly/hJIwA9.  Whaaaa waaaa to our leader who had time to offer congratulations to Michael Vick but not a dead soldiers family.

Palin’s screen shot before the site went down is at http://twitpic.com/3o7u8d.

Really WTF Americans, we expect better than this behavior and mindset of destruction.

Let’s hope that the 19 end up with a nice government pensions and not a shot in the head.  Palin may have wanted to change the vote but never in this manner.
