Does this count, motherfuckers?

Given the new rules of the game, I have to say that this cartoon by Lalo Alcaraz is an incitement to shoot Republicans.

Liberal means never having to be consistent.

Further expositions of the double standard

The double standard of who is responsible for language, that is.

For instance, when an ACORN-affiliated group gathers up a bunch of disaffected citizens to take them on a tour of wealthy financiers houses, there’s no concern from the media (like Don Wright) that someone might do something bad.  In fact, I think Don Wright might be responsible if someone from AIG gets hurt by one of these people.

How about when Obama says to a meeting of the bank executives “This administration is the only thing between you and the pitchforks.” Hell, that almost sounds like a threat.

So, Don, will you or any of your compadres in Obama’s sycophant corps call him out on his “irresponsible” language if some bank executive ends up with a pitchfork in his belly?  Didn’t think so.

Of course, cops get shot all the time.  Sometimes they get shot by people who can’t be painted with the “dread conservative brush”.  Like Lovelle Mixon.  Suspected in the sexual assault of a 12 year old girl, he was pulled over by Oakland police.  He proceeded to kill both of them, and kill two more before being killed.  Media reaction?  Sympathy.  Indymedia – disgusting shows of “the cops had it coming” and worse.  Marches in support of a murderer, rapist, and thief.  But we’re not allowed to say that media glorifying such behavior influences children.

Nope.  Only Rush Limbaugh can do that.

Give an idiot a pen…

And you get this shit. (Don Wright)

This is the ultimate endgame of what Jeff has been going on about for some time.

Who controls meaning?  Is meaning guided by the intent of the speaker?  If it is, then the speaker cannot be responsible for the way his meaning is misinterpreted (intentionally or otherwise).  Is meaning controlled by the listener?  If so, when does liability attach to the listener and not the speaker?

Can anyone point me to a single sentence that Limbaugh, Beck, Norris, or Bachmann has said or written that even implies that it’s ok to shoot cops?

Whatever happened to the reasonable man standard? Are we now supposed to limit what we say, what we think, what we draw, based upon how some unbalanced person might interpret it? Should we outlaw dogs because there might be another Son of Sam?  Ought we ban video games because an unbalanced child might decide to kill people at some later date?

Don, your argument is as stupid as it is dangerous. Your abject hatred for conservatives has caused you to draw some pretty foolish stuff before, and no doubt it will again. But for you to imply that someone talking on the radio is responsible for how a deranged person interprets what is said is inherently dangerous to liberty.
