There was a tragic shooting today so Sarah Palin should make it all about her in 3..2..1...here we are.

Can't we all just get along? And for God's sake pay attention to me?
So apparently after all of the dust settled from that unfortunate shooting today in Virginia, which wounded Rep. Steve Scalise and three others, and resulted in the death of he gunman, Sarah Palin saw an opportunity.

So she contacted perhaps the only media outlet that still takes her calls. Breitbart News which itself is currently hemorrhaging advertisers at an alarming rate.

I will link to the website here, but feel in no way obligated to provide them with any clicks.

Here are the pertinent portions:  

“Prayers for healing are raised for all victims of today’s horrific violence, while we with lift up thankfulness that lives were not lost,” Palin told Breitbart News. “While justice is now sought upon the capture of the deranged attacker, an additional prayer must be for no acceptance of a rush to destroy anyone else in this horrible incident. Those seeking political advantage reacted so recklessly and irresponsibly the last time a member of Congress was brutally attacked, as media inexplicably played a knee-jerk blame game assuming that attacker’s motives. Today’s shooter appears to be a Bernie Sanders supporter and campaign volunteer. But Bernie Sanders is not to blame. Maybe the media have matured enough to allow coverage of this most recent violence to focus on facts, because media integrity will be crucial as America witnesses today’s events unfolding and, on behalf of our Congressional Representatives, we all seek justice.” 

Palin’s call for unity, and media responsibility—and her statement standing up for Sanders despite the shooter being a Sanders supporter—comes after she has been the target of vitriolic media rhetoric for years. Perhaps the worst example of the media targeting Palin was in the wake of the shooting of Giffords, where Palin was blamed inaccurately.

That's right Sarah Palin, who has fanned the flames of partisan rage and violence for years now, is suddenly calling for unity.

The only problem with the comparison of the Gabby Giffords shooting and what happened today is the existence of this:
Yes there are reports that this gunman once worked for the Bernie Sanders campaign, but there is no evidence that HE ever posted a map with gun sights on it that singled out a ball field in Virginia.

Not only that but Sanders IMMEDIATELY came out to condemn the shooting:

"I have just been informed that the alleged shooter at the Republican baseball practice is someone who apparently volunteered on my presidential campaign," Sanders said. "I am sickened by this despicable act. Let me be as clear as I can be: Violence of any kind is unacceptable in our society and I condemn this action in the strongest possible terms. Real change can only come about through nonviolent action, and anything else runs against our most deeply held American values."

By contrast Palin came out four days after the shooting of Gabby Giffords and gave her incredibly insensitive blood libel speech during which she made it all about her.

Gabby Giffords, by the way, also issued a timely response to the shooting today in which she said the following: 

"It doesn't matter if you're a Democrat or a Republican, nor if you're a senator or a representative, nor a staffer or a sworn officer," Giffords said. "If you serve the institution of Congress, you're connected to your colleagues, current and former, by a shared sense of service to ideals far greater than yourself. This shooting is an attack on all who serve and on all who participate in our democracy."

"I am heartbroken for the pain of Congressman Scalise, the other victims, and their family, friends, and colleagues who survived," Giffords continued in her statement. "I am thankful for the great courage of the Capitol Police, who were my protectors after I was shot and became my friends. I also know the courage it takes to recover from a shooting like this, and I know Steve and everyone there this morning have such courage in great supply."

Another very appropriate, non-partisan response that offers good wishes and a speedy recovery to others while exerting no effort to engage in blaming the media or shining the spotlight on herself.

THAT is the difference between what happened today and what happened back in 2011.

As for unity, yes we can all stand together against gun violence, and I welcome my Republican brothers and sisters to join us in that fight, but as for the partisanship, so long as the Republicans are attempting to do away with everything that President Obama accomplished in eight years, I fear that battle is only just beginning.

      He slipped out of that trouble because he's a "disabled vet". That's the biggest favor mommy did him was to get him categorized in such a manner. It allowed him to go thru some "military style anger management" instead of jail.

      He doesn't even have to pay property tax on his new home, thanks to being a "disabled vet".

      Believe me, that asshole was mentally disable way, way before his mother ever made him join the military.

      He'll snap again and it will probably be serious enough that he'll not get off the hook for a few decades and be behind bars where he truly belongs.

      " In March 2010, Giffords had expressed concern about the use of crosshairs on a national midterm election map on Sarah Palin's campaign webpage denoting targeted congressional seats, including Giffords's, in Arizona's 8th district. Shortly after the map's posting and the subsequent vandalizing of her office that month, Giffords said, "We're in Sarah Palin's 'targeted' list, but the thing is that the way she has it depicted, we're in the crosshairs of a gun sight over our district. When people do that, they've got to realize that there are consequences to that action." At that point in the interview, however, the interviewer said, "campaign rhetoric and war rhetoric have been interchangeable for years."[21][125] The image was removed from Palin's "takebackthe20" website following the January shootings.[125][126][127] Palin responded to her critics in a January 12 video, rejecting the notion that anyone other than the gunman could bear any responsibility for the Tucson shooting, and accusing the press of manufacturing a "blood libel" to blame her and the right wing for the attacks"

      The mentally ill should never have guns but it can never be stopped.I have a nephew who is mentally ill, pulled a gun on his sister and spent four months in jail, got out took back to AZ. guns he inherited from hid Dad.He hates Hispanics and blacks and is sitting in a house with guns.

      My sister had no where to send him so she paid for his home and at seventy has to support him until she dies.You can thank Reagan for that he closed a ton of places to put the mentally ill. This is how easy it is for the mentally ill to get guns.He did not have to buy them he was handed them.

      In Michigan they are going to pass a bill that everyone can carry without concealed weapons safety classes. Indiana already has this.

      A background check is all you need. My Dad had hunting rifles but never put the ammo or the guns in the same place, never had a handgun but these are sad times when we have a President who makes fighting macho, a pussy who avoided the draft and has no sence of real honor.

      We heard for eight years how President Obama was going to take our guns away and the stupid believed it so they stockpiled guns up the ass and the cost of ammo went up the ass and who benifitted by it?Take a guess.

      How do we know this man was mentally ill?

      He had a history of DV (like Track P).

      Don't further stigmatize and shame those who have mental illness, please. We have enough of that on our plate as it is.

      Around here, most of the interpersonal gun crimes are by EMOTIONALLY unstable people caught up in a moment they do not know how to deal with (and these crimes don't make the news since they aren't 'sensational', like Aurora and Sandy Hook). These shooters were raised to solve conflict by violent means (beatings) in a gun-positive environment.
      They aren't mentally ill, or 'crazy', they're mad as hell and have never been taught how to deal with anger issues and other people who disagree with them.
      The power and attention that a firearm can give a shooter........sigh.

      Well, the GOP redistribution of wealth started quite a while ago. The 21st century GOP wants to complete the job - quickly. I think that Trump himself is not very bright. That is why the real nasty work at the White House is being done by members of his staff, starting with Bannon. They are happy to have an incompetent, swollen-headed boss there because he does their work for them. The GOP in Congress may be willing to part with Trump once they get their anti-health care bill passed. Pence in the White House would continue the next phase of their project - reducing the country and its Constitution to total ruin. I do wonder, though, how most rich Republicans and members of Congress will adjust to the strict and cruel life of a fake religious fundamentalist state with liberty for none.

    Robert Mueller just cleverly made it so Donald Trump can’t fire him

    ...But now all of a sudden, with the story out there that Robert Mueller is directly investigating Donald Trump for obstruction of justice, the stakes are much higher. If Trump now tries to fire Mueller after this news has come out, it would look so bad that the Republicans in Congress would have to side with Mueller forcefully. And so by making it known that he’s now investigating Trump directly, Mueller has made is so that Trump can’t fire him. Trump may be playing an angry game of checkers, but Mueller is playing chess – and he’s winning.

      Well, of course, in Trump's little mind it's all about him. Everything is all about him. This guy was apparently unhinged about the GOP in Congress. No surprise there except that his unbalanced rage (understandable though it might have been) was not aimed at Trump. As we all know, Trump would never participate in the "national pass time." He'd need a golf cart to go from base to base after someone else hit the ball for him.

    Republican Senator Considers Obstruction Of Justice Investigation Against Trump (DETAILS)

    REPORT: Trump Tried To Pull His Own Saturday Night Massacre, WH Aides Said Hell No

    ...In fact, it is now being reported that Trump wanted to fire Mueller, and was only stopped by his own White House staff, because any thinking person knows that this would be a political – and potentially legal- disaster.

    The rumors of Trump’s intention to fire Mueller were first fueled by an interview that Newsmax CEO and close Trump confidante Christopher Ruddy gave to PBS Newshour. In that interview, Ruddy said of what he knew of Trump’s paranoid thinking on the matter:

    “I think he’s considering perhaps terminating the special counsel. I think he’s weighing that option.”

    Well, Trump had better get that option out of his head; after all, even the GOP sycophants in Congress are saying that this is a bridge too far, and that Trump needs to leave Special Counsel Mueller alone and let him do his investigation. Congressman Adam Schiff (D-CA), who is the Ranking Member on the House Intelligence Committee has already told Trump that going after Mueller would be a waste of time, because Congress would intervene.

      But Ivanka said herself just recently that she has great concern for unemployed factory workers and for drug-addicted mothers - whites only, of course. I don't think Ivanka spends a nanosecond of her time thinking about the working conditions in the Chinese factories that produce her clothing lines. For that matter, I wonder how well she treats her three Mandarin nannies. I know I wouldn't want to work for her or for anyone with any connection to the Trump con dynasty.

    Gabrielle Giffords’ Call For Sympathy And Understanding Is Met With... Hate

    If it weren't for Ramadan, more Londoners might have died in that apartment fire.

    http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/muslims-waking-up-early-for-ramadan-were-among-first-to-respond-to-london-fire_us_59415b0ae4b09ad4fbe4d64c?hij&ncid=inblnkushpmg00000009

    "As fire took hold of a West London high-rise apartment building early Wednesday morning, some Muslims in the area were awake to prepare for Suhur, the early morning meal that is eaten during the holy month of Ramadan.

    As a result, they were reportedly among the first to react to what would become a deadly, devastating blaze ― pounding on doors to wake up sleeping neighbors, moving quickly to collect relief supplies, and throwing open the doors of mosques to offer victims shelter.

    One local resident told HuffPost UK, “Muslim boys saved people’s lives. They ran around knocking on people’s doors. Thank God for Ramadan.”"

    "Islamic centers and mosques in the area also responded on Wednesday by opening up their worship spaces for survivors looking for shelter. "

    "The center is also offering an evening iftar dinner to anyone who needs it.

    In a Facebook post, Masjid Annoor, an Islamic center a few miles away from the blaze, said that its doors are open and “will remain open for anyone that has been affected ... Everyone is welcome. Irrespective of religion or background.”"

    "Other faith groups ― including local Christian churches and Sikh gurdwaras ― also opened their doors, offering survivors temporary shelter."

    You won't hear about any of this from Donald Judas Trump's Twitter account.

      I doubt that many US newspapers or newscasts will report that part of the story. The people whose lives were saved by the quick action of their Muslim neighbors should be praised by one and all, including the bigoted president of the US.

    What happened on that baseball field was disgusting but what happened in the Arizona shopping center a few years ago to Gabby Giffords and people there to see her or to do their weekly shopping was disgusting too. But there was no outrage from the GOP at the time and, as we know, Sarah Palin was in hiding as long as possible. And where was the GOP outrage when the children and teachers at Sandy Hook elementary were murdered on a school day morning?

    I'm sure that it will be discovered at some point that the man who turned the baseball field into a killing field will be understood to have been insane (despite the fact that he had been a Bernie Sanders' volunteer), just as the the shopping center and elementary school murderers were. The question remains: why does the GOP Congress want to make the kinds of weapons used so available to anyone, but especially to people who certainly should never be allowed near them? Until the GOP faces what the easy availability of murdering machines has become, the problem will remain and innocent people will be killed - wantonly.

    And then there's the related question of not wanting to curb police violence, especially against unarmed African Americans and other minorities. Why would the GOP not want police departments across the country not working with local and state police to alleviate racist reactions that cause such harm to American communities? That's about the excessively easy use of violent force too.

    It is not just what President Obama accomplished that Republicans want to destroy it is Our Ancestors, Our Constitution, Our Bill of Rights, Our Freedom and Our Social Programs designed to help those most in need. The Citizen United decision changed our Democracy and what America has stood for, fought for. The current Republican party changed and are now a party of global bullies and major polluters that cannot adjust to civil decency and shared wealth. The hateful greed and deceit coming from the 1% that Americans built is outrageous.
