Sarah Palin denounced the "libel" of those who link with the shooting of Tucson

The former governor of Alaska, Sarah Palin, has gone out today to fend off criticism that link political rhetoric with the shooting last Saturday in Tucson, which killed six people and seriously wounded Democratic Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords. The most visible of the ultraconservative movement Tea party has posted a video of almost eight minutes on his Facebook page where he talks of his thoughts after the attack.

"After this shocking tragedy, I heard at first puzzled, then concerned and now sadly, the irresponsible statements of people trying to take responsibility for this terrible event," he says. "Especially when they have spent a few hours of tragedy, journalists and commentators should not make a criminal libel which only serves to incite the same hatred and violence that supposedly condemn it." In this sense, the former governor recalled some words of former Republican President Ronald Reagan who said that "we must reject the idea that every time you break the law, society is guilty rather than the offender" and that "it is time to restore the American precept that each individual is responsible for their actions.

" Over the past two years Palin, a former vice presidential candidate of the Republican Party has used repeatedly in his public rhetoric phrases like "do not retire, you have to recharge." The English term used to "recharge"-reload "refers specifically to firearms. During the election campaign last November, the website of Palin marked by the drawing of a telescopic sight districts "white" for the efforts of conservatives, and among them was the district of Gifford.

Many analysts have linked the attack, allegedly perpetrated by a youth identified as Jared Loughna, with that kind of talk by some leaders of the Tea Party in the midst of a heated political debate in America. According to Palin, "monstrous criminal acts are based on their own, begin and end at the criminals who commit them, rather than collectively for all citizens of a state, not those who hear the radio, not to changing district maps (including parties) used by both sides, not law-abiding citizens exercising the rights of the First Amendment in campaign events, not those who proudly voted in recent elections.

" Palin said the U.S. political debate ever "has been heated." "In an ideal world all the discussions would be in polite terms and all differences would be cordial," said Palin, adding that "our forefathers knew that they were designing a system perfect for men and women." Rhetoric with references to firearms was common to other prominent figures in the Tea Party, and individuals who identified themselves as members of this movement-arms attended with no boot-political events and even Barack Obama president presentations during 2009.
