CivilityUSA: Left is 'wrong': Arizona massacre not to be blamed on political hot-talk

Opinion

Arizona shooting pundits are wrong: 

Heated political speech isn’t 

the problem – it’s the solution

In the wake of the Arizona shooting, 

some lawmakers want to curb political speech. 

But raucous debate is a hallmark of a healthy democracy. 

Indeed, it's a safety valve that helps prevent violence, 

because it allows people to voice their strongly held views 

in hopes of persuading others.
