Palin’s comparison of torture to a religious practice is intolerant

Sarah Palin is notori- ous for her ridiculous, off-the-wall comments in high-profile public venues in which they are hardly appropriate. The most recent controversial utterance from the former Alaskan gov- ernor and pageant queen, in which she compared a method of torture to a sa- cred religious practice, is no exception. “If I were in charge, they would know that waterboarding is how we bap- tize terrorists,” said Palin during her speech at the National Rifle Association’s 2014 annual meeting in In- dianapolis Saturday. Palin directed this comment toward “intolerant, anti-freedom, leftist liberals” on both the east and west coasts for their al- leged double-standard thinking for gun control. Not only is this new addi- tion to Palin’s list of idiot- ic quotes ignorant, but it’s also highly offensive.

The Cal State Fullerton baseball team’s tough season continued to get worse as it dropped two-of-three games at Long Beach State, losing a series to its ri- val for the first time since 2008. AMANDA SHARP / Daily Titan Clay Williamson was one of the few offensive threats for the Titans over the weekend, recording a Game 1 team-high four hits in their three games.
