DAILY BEAST TARGETS RAND PAUL WITH VIOLENT IMAGERY


Does the Daily Beast want someone to shoot Senator Rand Paul (R-KY)? - John Nolte/Breitbart

...Back in 2011, a mere three years ago, the Daily Beast linked the imagery of targets over the faces of politicians to the terrible shooting of Rep. Gabrielle Giffords and the death threats leveled at a number of other Democrats....
Like Gabrielle Giffords, Harry Mitchell and Ann Kirkpatrick were under siege during the health-care debate and appeared on Sarah Palin's "crosshairs" map. They tell Shushannah Walshe about death threats—and the need to cancel town-hall events.
That's what the Daily Beast told us Palin's crosshairs had wrought.

Obviously the Daily Beast believes this kind of imagery can result in death threats and even assassination attempts. Why then would an outlet that believes such a thing publish (see above) a photo of Rand Paul with a target over his face with the title: Rand Paul = Democrats’ Enemy #1.
