The fact is that both the bullseye and the cross-hairs imagery is damned stupid. A few of us here called it such back when it first popped up. We knew that it would someday be used against Palin...not a hard prediction to make. And for that reason we considered it stupid. You never give your enemy a hammer to smack you with.

Palin doesn't advocate violence.

Palin's image was that of a land surveyor's scope.

Even so, there isn't a shred of evidence that the killer saw Palin's image and there isn't a shred of evidence that the killer mistook the land surveyor's target for a gun target.

The truth is on the side of Palin.

When one walks on egg shells such as yourself, worrying about what lies and false accusations may be used against them, one as lost the battle.

Palin hasn't given the enemy a hammer to smack her with. It's her enemy who brings its own hammer and it's you who wishes to appease the enemy instead of standing up for the simple truth.

BTW, it's hypocritcal that you use the words "hammer", "smack" in describing a violent action against Palin, whilst you criticize Palin for using a land surveyors target, when she targets Democrats.

Of course I don't expect you to understand that.

Of course it was stupid for palin to use a cross-hair symbol (note that she nor anyone else called it a surveyor's symbol until the shooting).

The very fact that you are having to defend its use proves its stupidity.
