Jerry,

if there was a muslim in detroit who put up a map with crosshairs over
congressmen.

If that Muslim in Detroit then went on television and held public
rallies advocating his supporters to Get locked and Loaded,
to get on target to remove these congressmen,
and when they fire they should Reload and Come Again....

and one of those congressmen got shot...(and the gunman tried to reload and
come again actually)

would that Muslim still be walking the streets a free man right now?
Would there be any question as to a portion of blame, or whether an
investigation had to be launched?

Please.

BTW whether US wants to face it or not, the question of the Tea Party and
the GOP inciting this violence is the most asked question worldwide,
including on Facebook.
You will recall that analysts from both sides decried that rhetoric and
warned that more radical members of these parties could take this seriously
because of the
authority figures that were making those statements. I even saw a segment on
BBC World talking about the slant that US politics were taking after this
rally where
guys showed up armed to the teeth.

I cannot believe that regardless of what the motivations were, after
something like this has happened one cannot look at that rhetoric, hear it
and read it, and say that it is still ok.
