Democrats cry foul over Kirkpatrick "wanted" poster

http://tucson.com/news/government-and-politics/democrats-cry-foul-over-kirkpatrick-wanted-poster/article_058b15be-70ac-11e6-93e4-b39ce6322c8c.html

A "Wanted" poster of Senate candidate Ann Kirkpatrick sent out by Arizona Republican Party has angered a number of Arizona Democrats.

It isn't the fiery rhetoric that has angered them, but the computer generated bullet holes that has Democrats, including former Rep. Gabby Giffords, demanding an apology.

Giffords was one of 13 people wounded in an assassination attempt in 2011 that left six people dead.

The Kirkpatrick Senate campaign denounced the Western style "Wanted" poster - which the state party delivered to Kirkpatrick's campaign office in Tempe - calling it "tasteless and ignorant."
