Gabrielle Giffords In Political 'Crosshairs' Poem by Terence George Craddock (Spectral Images and Images Of Light)

Palin’s Gabriel Giffords in political 'crosshairs'
was an act of terrorism or stupidity?
Fueled a massacre fueled reader gunman's rage?

Sarah Palin created a list of candidates to defeat
in next election used gun crosshairs to illustrate
her intention. What influence these images on any...

troubled, angry, mentally unstable young minds?
Who sows a 'hate-filled atmosphere of unbending
partisan politics in which opponents are demonized

to the point that violence becomes not merely
possible, but probable'. Answer power hungry minds.
Are power crazed minds best choice for world peace?
