What incites more violence -- cross-hairs on an electoral map, or calling a man "DEAD"?

Question

The fine and peaceful journalists at Time magazine are calling Wisconsin's Governor "Dead Man Walker":

http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/0,8599,2058601,00.html

Is that the civil discourse, that we've heard so much about last month? Will Sheriff Dupnik add "certain people in the print business" to his list of infamous "TV and Radio people" responsible for the (perceived) increase in violence?

Answer 1

I demand that the SPLC deem Time as a Hate Group. They like to throw that label around anyway.



-calling a man "DEAD"

Answer 2

I don't believe that either the term "Dead Man Walking" or the "Cross-Hairs" on the map should cause any kind of political or any other kind of discourse. As already been explained one term refers to a death row inmate walking and, the other point out areas targeted for political action. Why would either term if properly used incite violence? And even if the terms are bastardized, how many people will actually be effected by the terms. And what effect will the term have on them; none, none at all.

Answer 3

in case you have seen the indications of those "non violent" protesters, there are some with the Governor's photograph in Nazi clothing with bypass hairs besides the comparable as while Bush 40 3 became in place of work. Liberals do no longer think of. they are insane, willfully ignorant and outright violent.

Answer 4

Gosh you guys are just sooooo politically correct all of a sudden.

I suppose the next time a Republican actually does die we will all have to say he 'passed on'.



The term used in print is a take off on the "dead man walking'' used on death row.

In this case it meant that the tide turned against Walker and he will not be reelected, and has a high probability of being recalled.



I don't see too many half witted people reading that magazine, so I doubt there will be the same amount of influence on the unbalanced that a word or two from Beck has on his flock.

Answer 5

"?" this symbol at the end of the sentence means they were asking a question.



Were there question marks by those cross hairs that got Gabby Giffords shot in the head??

Answer 6

Neither incite violence.

Answer 7

No, you are wrong.



And, everyone knows that the article was written by a conservative pretending to be a liberal.



After all, the liberals are all about tolerance.

Answer 8

Just shows the liberal mentality.

Answer 9

No way to know for sure, but I'd lean toward the former.

Answer 10

Neither one "incites voilence."
