Palin in a noose

Any thoughts on Palin hanging in a noose out in LA? Seems pretty crude to me despite my feelings for her as a political candidate. Even though I don't approve, theree should be no restrictions on the display, and I would say the same if it were Obama hanging there too. We are a whacked society. :chop:

The individual would be arrested for a hate crime.

If it were Obama they wouldn't be arrested for a hate crime. Ever see a KKK rally? There is a heck of a lot worse than a noose and the police are there protecting them. It is called freedom of speech or expression.

As much as I think those guys are morons, they shouldn't have been arrested. Once again we are trashing the constitution.

"Double standard"?

Call it what you want, it is flat out wrong. Same as gay bashing, flag burning, KKK rallies. They are all pretty disgusting to me, but I still feel we have protection under the constitution to express ourselves, no matter how much I disagree with it.

I think the negative/angry tone of McCain/Palin's campaign has encouraged this type of thing & they have no one to whine/cry to but themselves!

Dick, though I agree with you on the way the GOP has conducted itself, I don't think it is acceptable behavior to hang a political candidate in efigy. Ignorant behavior directed at McCain Palin or Obama is inexcusable. That being said, I still supoort the right to do it.

Give me one example from McCain/Palin that has been "negative/angry".

Palin saying that Obama "Pals around with terrorists" The term "Pals around" was meant to convey that they......made bombs together?........Practiced shooting at cops together??....What?
(btw.......Ayers only act of "terrorism" was to blow up a statue)
