I don't. I work in a highly competitive environment. We talk all the time about blowing away the competition, obliterating the competition, etc. In the 20 years or so I've worked in this environment, I'm not aware of anyone going out and assasinating CEOs or employees of competitors.
If anything, seeing a picture of a person with crosshairs superimposed over them is more likely to make me think of them being shot than a map with crosshairs over spots in certain states.
As far as politics goes, this is just another opportunity for the left to play attack dog on conservatives.
Darn, another violent metaphor. Sorry.
