This is an interview with Rep. Griffiths (D, Arizona) on MSNBC from March 2010. She discusses violent threats and vandalism against her and others carried out by Tea Party members. She also notes that Sarah Palin had a map on her web-site depicting her and others in gun cross-hairs. She stated that this type of violent rhetoric may "incite" extremists. Now she is in the ICU after being shot in the head this morning, along with 19 others. Among 2 dead are a 9 year old girl.



Palin removed the graphic above from her website. This is a screen shot someone posted on Twitter.
