There are already 70 members of the “Kill Sarah Palin” group on Facebook.
Do we need to round them up and try them for hate crimes?
UPDATE: The group’s founder, Elliot Parker, appears to be a kid. Let’s hope he gets the help he needs.
AND ANOTHER THING: Facebook has now taken down the group.

The link to the group doesn’t work. It’s gone, apparently.
“Do we need to round them up and try them for hate crimes?”
Under normal circumstances I’d say no, but considering the spewage coming from the left (Rep Louise Slaughter talking about getting the FCC to help tamp down inflamtory rhetoric, for instance), I’m going with yes. Oh heck yes, even, and slam them with everything the law will allow. Good for the goose, good for the gander and all that doncha know. Live by the hate crime law, die by the hate crime law.
Let’s hope Facebook turned the name of the creator and all those who joined over to law enforcement, unless it’s a federal case since the Justice Department wouldn’t do anything about it.
Goobers.
Glad to see it’s gone.
And it’s gone because I and others got the word out for people to “report page” in the lower left corner. I hope some of you also reported the page.
Let’s take an active role in getting the death wishes to stop.
