"Second Amendment remedies", "Don't retreat, reload", "It really is time for Americans to take up pitchforks.", and one of the worst, "Let me just tell you what I’m thinking. I’m thinking about killing Michael Moore, and I’m wondering if I could kill him myself, or if I would need to hire somebody to do it."

I don't understand how people can pretend like these statements aren't textbook examples of violent rhetoric. We saw Palin just yesterday walk back on using gun symbolism in relating to rival districts, making the shooting somehow about her being victimized. Why is it that this stuff isn't met with universal rebuke? Are we so entrenched that this stuff is given a pass because to admit it would be like losing the game to the other guys?
