You are correct about the 5th. And yes, it is strange how people attempt to find rational reasons for what is obviously irrational behavior.

It is equally strange how some people attempt to connect the crazed killer with Palin, especially since he hasn't said anything.

No, it isn't all that strange considering the M.O. of those who are trying to make the connection.

Of course they WANT her to be labelled as an accessory to murder. Whatever could be the motivation behind such accusations?

Just a bit extreme. I think they want her in the crosshairs of a map saying "We need to make sure she is not elected. We need to keep raising taxes so we can give money to those that have no taxes to pay."

Just my 2¢

Yea I don't know how Palin came into the picture. My theory is... people started blaming the conservative government and/or the hissy political tensions (especially in Arizona) then Palin comes out defending the conservatives, then BAM another gaffe of hers. So all the attention is towards her.

Kinda like how 9/11 happened, then we got angry and invaded Iraq.

They took a map from her political action committee (posted in this thread) and somehow drew a conclusion that she had endorsed shooting to remove Rep. Giffords. Of course, the Conservatives make this another one of those "Look at those dang fool Liberals" moments. It never ends. Both sides are stupid to use this as a tool for their party gain.

Correction .... the attempt to make Palin out to be an accessory to murder has backfired.

Putting political spins on a tragedy is just kinda gross.

I think that came after the whole "blood libel" fiasco. (We need a timeline here!) So all the attention was towards her. Someone googled her and found that map and WAAA WAAAA WAAAA.

Oh wait..*revelation*

Maybe crosshairs/target symbols really do cause shootings...

Right. All the Conservatives ringing their hands at poor Sarah isn't a ploy to gain some kind of public favor? And the fact that 99% of Liberals are distancing themselves from making any type of accusations in that regard, yet the Conservatives are seizing the baton of "woe is Palin" and running full speed. Do you see that both parties are making themselves look better at the expense of decency?
 
Here is my view on this; Palin has zero to do with this. Republicans have zero to do with it. Democrats have zero to do with this. It is the extremeists that are making something negative out of it. If this does not show you how ugly the political system has gotten, wake up. If you only see one side as wrong, take the blinders off.

But she has, and on public T.V. That makes the connection more valid, as she seems to believe that it is valid enough to speak out in her own defense.:cool2: But then, we are discussing irrational individuals, aren't we? LOL

Agreed. It began as a criticism of the party politics she happens to support, and she managed to turn it into some sort of personal indictment. Attention whore.

Yep. If it had been ignored after someone found the map, and she had kept her mouth shut, it would never have gone any farther than that. Just another case of poor judgement on her part. Pretty much par for the course.

Somehow I missed that. Do you have a link to the interview or statement?
