INDIANAPOLIS — Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin fired up a crowd of thousands inside Lucas Oil Stadium Saturday night to kick off the National Rifle Association’s “Stand and Fight Rally,” saying Americans’ constitutional rights as envisioned by the founding fathers are under attack and policies like gun-free zones constitute “stupid on steroids.”
“They knew that if the Second Amendment goes, the rest of the constitution is not far behind,” she said of the country’s founders.
In her approximately 12-minute address, Mrs. Palin also derided what she argued is akin to a ‘blame the messenger’ attitude on gun violence many Americans take today.
“Gun stores are an accomplice to crime,” she said, “and that fork made me fat.”
Mrs. Palin, plucked from relative political obscurity to be the 2008 GOP vice presidential nominee, still enjoys significant support among elements of the party’s base, and was at times received like a rock star inside the complex adjacent to the Indiana Convention Center, where much of the gun rights group’s annual meeting has taken place.

Sometimes the Responsibility is not to go and Troll just for the hell of it.
Thanks Again DoughtyOne. Always a pleasure.
Kicking lefty azz
LOL Yep and their brains splatter all over the place..wait, I take that back, liberals don’t have brains so basically a bunch of empty matter splatter all over the place
Because she is one of the few republicans who won’t apologize for speaking the truth. And yeah, you can count them on one hand.
Your posr redefines silly.
I meant piss of lefties, not the immediate audience, I may be illiterate but I stand by my statement.
Cruz/Palin or Palin/Cruz.
BUMP that!
I am just frustrated with self promoting idiots. The world is on the brink of a major war in Eastern Europe, our rights are being taken away by the courts and the politicians, this is a time of unparalleled danger to freedom at home and abroad... And this woman is making really silly comments at a serious time. These are not words of a politician or a leader, these are the words of a media personality and do not belong in front page news.
I am done on this thread, just my honest opinion.
Waaaahhhhh!!! I think your state has bigger problems than Sarah’s plain-spoken truths.
A few FReeper heads explode, too. Which is even better.
I'm not crying. It's her career. Yep, my state is overrun by illegals and my governor is reverting to her true RINO self and vetoing gun rights bills left and right.
A flock of geese, a pack of wolves...indeed why NOT a “puss of lefties”??? ;)
So now it’s your theory that people must use their judgement and never speak if the thought is abhored by a certain group of folks here?
Do you realize how many idiotic movements here have caused us to support people who were unfit to hold the office of the presidency?
Bush cost us dearly and some of us are tired of watching the lead up to general elections result in one group or another censuring anyone who disagrees with them.
Is this a Conservative forum or not? Do we agree with the first amendment or not?
Now it’s termed using responsibility to shut people up?
She is a failed half term governor. I’m not happy about it, but it is true. And you know what, that’s something she’s going to face somewhere along the line, either here or in the public arena. Why must we stick our heads in the sand on these matters?
Many of us tried to warn off on Bush. Instead we got the idiot and he cost Conservatism dearly. Please folks, can we discuss these matters fully this time?
Most likely not, because you mean well, so everyone else has to shut the hell up.
LOL.
She’s the very best!
GO SARAH!
Would that be allowing illegals to register and stay here, so they can keep working?
Yep, now there spoken truth...
There is nothing “failed” about Palin’s time in office.
Nothing.
I agree with you on quite a very lot, but not on Palin. She is a very strong candidate, and I hope upon hope, she stands up and runs in 2016.
For real.
Great to see your post, my FRiend!
All the best!
