Opportunist Democrat: Let's Ban Crosshair Images

There certainly is no shortage of stupidity coming from Democrats in the wake of the shooting of Gabrielle Giffords and the murders in Arizona Saturday.

Here's the latest inane nonsense.
Representative Bob Brady of Pennsylvania told The Caucus he plans to introduce a bill that would ban symbols like that now-infamous campaign crosshair map.

"You can't threaten the president with a bullseye or a crosshair," Mr. Brady, a Democrat, said, and his measure would make it a crime to do so to a member of Congress or federal employee, as well.

Asked if he believed the map incited the gunman in Tucson, he replied, "I don't know what's in that nut's head. I would rather be safe than sorry."

He continued, "This is not a wakeup call. This is a major alarm going off. We need to be more civil with each other. We need to tone down this rhetoric."
Sure, it would be nice of the left to tone down the rhetoric. In the hourse since the incident Saturday I've seen a media gang-rape of Sarah Palin coming from that side while the right offers prayers and condolences. It's been a one-sided feeding frenzy and orgy of hatred for Palin. Try taking your own advice, Congressman.

Beyond idiotic and just plain sick is Democrats are already using the shooting as a fundraising tool.

That does not go far enough. Better ban words that could be construed as being intimidating to someone. Maybe this blog is one big symbolic "crosshair" targeting Democrats.

Republicans vote against Democrats - we should ban them too. What a freaking joke. Something tells me nobody's ever said: "check out the big brain on Bob!"

How about banning flag burning. that seems as pertinent.

Let's just outlaw dissent. As they say, "Never waste a good crisis." Nothing good can come from disagreeing with the government can it? Well, maybe the original "Tea Party" ... but no! See what that led to. Now is the chance to straighten this nation out, to make it bow down to our stern father-like control. (Hey, this beats 140 character limit ...)

I guess I'll have to point out the obvious but if the people in prison could or would vote does anyone want to take a sawbuck bet that it would be at least 90% democrat?  So with democrats responsible for the vast majority of the crime in this nation even if jared was a right winger (and clues are showing he's not) it would take a billion of him to equal the crime damage that democrats do to this country.

Hey dopey, nobody used any scopes... the victims were shot at point blank range.  Maybe we should ban close-up photos of people then lol
