Did comedian Christopher Titus call for Sarah Palin's assassination if she was nominated president of the United States? He is quoted as saying, 'If she gets elected president, I am going to hang out on the grassy knoll all the time... loaded and ready.' Wow, that sounds like something we have heard from the fringe on the right about then-candidate Barack Obama presidency. All my readers know I can't stand Sarah Palin, but I certainly wouldn't call for her death.
The more threats against Palin

Jeez you people act like the terrorists have won with all your fear. Don't live in fear! Stand up for yourself and make a joke about hanging out on a grassy knoll too.
wow be careful with those glasses you might start to see the world from a more realistic point of view and could screw up your prescription obamacare glasses with the rose colored tint

I feel I have enough experience with you guys to play this game by your rules now. So let me put on my right wing super defense glasses and give it a shot. All I have to do is pretend that Titus is a righty taking a shot at a lefty and it is easy. Watch?
What does this have to do with Assassination? Who was ever shot from a grassy knoll? JFK was shot from a library window. You mean the "loaded" part? Oh well, with Palin that is gonna be tricky. Remember what she said. About words like "loaded" that has nothing to do with guns. Just folksy political speech. How did I do?
Oh I forgot. Obama did something once that sucks too!
Now I think I got it.

Okay.
Sorry. Forgot about the double standard.

Now if a comedian said this about Hillary Clinton, all hell would break loose.

Not full of fear, just wondering why "it's just a joke" for Palin but when a 7th grade kid makes a remark about Obama, the Secret Service investigates.

Hmmm, nope. No double standard here folks, please move along. Enjoy the kool-aid.

I don't think the OP is full of fear... I think he wanted to point out the double standard in the media from left to right. If anyone on the right had said this it would be front page news.
