Nearly six in 10 Americans say the country's heated political rhetoric is not to blame for the Tucson shooting rampage that left six dead and critically wounded U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, according to a CBS News poll. In the wake of the shooting, much focus has been put on the harsh tone of politics in Washington and around the country, particularly after a contentious midterm election. Rhetoric and imagery from both Republicans and Democrats have included gun-related metaphors, but the majority of the country isn't connecting the shooting to politics.

I think there might be more polling companies following up on this. We got a Zogby survey poll talking about this topic.

Probably had your mind on reading the Sam note.
“Most scopes I have seen do not have external crosshairs.”

That is just one of the new features of the Obamapelosi urban assault machinerifle with the oversize magazine that holds ten thousand twelve gauge “bullets”. It is only sold to federal agents for use in eliminating conservatives. The external cross hairs are part of the braille system to allow blind snipers to sight the weapon by feel.

The whole right wing, left wing business is a load of garbage anyway, the divide is between those who believe in freedom and those who don’t, I don’t know how people ever got the idea that there is an extreme left dictatorship and an extreme right dictatorship and happiness lies midway between the two. A damned dictator is a damned dictator period, there are not left hand and right hand versions of dictators.
