I'm more inclined to think that people are debating *Palin*, using the word
and the murders as a pretext.

I mean, why in the world is "public civility" still being talked about as
*the* issue following the murders? Because initially people thought the
killer *might* be a right-wing Palin fan?

As the Rabbi Shumley piece pointed out, public civility is a good thing to
talk about in and of itself, but as an extension of the murders? Nonsense.
