Right to bear arms is nothing more than the right to vote -- Sarah Palin
"When we say 'take up our arms,' we are talking about our vote." -- Palin.

Thus, any time she and her freaky crowd talk about the Second Amendment, say, yes, according to Palin, the Second Amendment is the right to vote and you endorse that.

It's nothing more than that. She can't have it both ways.

1. So according to Palin, Loughner was just "voting" with his bullets when he shot Gabi Giffords?

What a bitch. She can eat shit, that Palin.

6. I think she means her exhortation to bear arms is to vote. But she can't have it both ways.
Either she means that bearing arms means voting and not carrying lethal guns, or she is guilty of inciting violence against elected citizens. She can't have it both ways.

If it is the former, then she kneecaps her Second Amendment arguments. If it is the latter, then she is an accessory to murders.

She will try to have it both ways.

2. But you register to vote and you don't register own guns.

3. Voting "registration" is a matter of proving eligibility...
i.e. Citizenship and residence in that district.

The parallel for guns would be the form 4473 and the NICS check. Eligibility and no disqualifiers on record.

You do not have to register how you will vote, for whom, or on what issues.

4. Make her go away

Her justifications aren't smart enough to even be stupid.

5. Palin can pass background check to buy and carry guns in public -- yet she is clearly crazy/stupid.

Says a lot about our system when someone that hostile and stupid can walk around with a gun.
