<<<No, it's not a connection. It's only a complaint. We don't know that the shooter ever heard of Palin.>>>

I didn't say it was a direct connection.

But as Rep. Giffords herself also pointed out, in March when she was a target because of her vote on health care reform, free speech does have a cost.

“We’re on Sarah Palin’s targeted list,” said Giffords. “Crosshairs of a gunsight over our district. When people do that, they’ve got to realize there’s consequences.”
