The man got arrested. This is the stuff we need to avoid. However, what kind of reaction do the politicians expect? They all know what this issue stirs up, the kind of emotion behind it. Unfortunately, I think we'll see more of this stuff if/when it passes.

Strength in numbers- Bozo should have got about 20,000 people gathered and went after her with feathers and tar. Jim said he has an ample supply!!Quote:

Just wait until after this legislaton passes.
Maybe she just cant handle it......

It hurts us if he really did threaten her. You know the antis are going to magnify any incident they can to try to characterize us as deranged whackos to anyone who is even on the fence. We need to stay mad but stay cool.

Things have already started to spiral, albeit slowly, anything that causes the descent to pick up more speed will make the crash harder and harder to avoid. I still think it is avoidable, but we could find ourselves thrust into a bad spot very quickly if the "unstable" contingent doesn't settle down.
Man, it's amazing how there seems to be a "death threat guy" for practically every situation. Wonder this one is a member here...
I was thinking that... what if it was this guy threatening to push for her to be recalled, or not elected again in '14? What if there was no viable threat on her life? If that's the case then we're in deep doodoo...Quote:

I don't know whether to laugh or cry at that. He should have known better than to use words for that. Money is the only thing that works...and gets overlooked. ;)
In any case they will use this to make us all look like violent psychopaths bent on destruction and chaos. The control the left has over the media to spread propaganda is truly amazing. Sadly, most people have broken "bullshit detectors".Quote:

I wonder if the increased protection for her includes firearms with magazines greater than 15 rounds.
Officially, and for the record, I don't condone threatening politicians.
Having said that, I don't give a rat's ass what happens to some tyrannical politician intent on subverting the Constitution and my liberties and freedoms as an American.
I need to be sure to state it up-front - THIS IS PURELY A HYPOTHETICAL QUESTION! (that follows). I am in NO WAY suggesting ANY actions to ANYONE, but am curious about something.
Disclaimer now stated.
What would be the reaction to having some targets printed up with photos of our 'favorite' Dems in place of the normal photos?
If someone were to take videos of target practice on such modified target, would it (could it) be perceived as a threat of any sort?
I think of it as the contemporary equivalent of pasting a photo on a dart board - BUT - with all the paranoia running rampant, I wonder if LE would consider it harmless or threatening?
Is there any precedent?
correct me if I am wrong, but as the United States was declared a Battlefield by the 2012 NDAA, aren't we shooting traitors under Article I?
As far as I know, wartime suspends article III trials (Constitutional) regarding treason.
Ignoring the amount of win in that theory, I think it'd be bad right now. The lefties have the media in their corner and they get to say how things look. A simple headline makes the sheeple start marching to their tune. "Gun nuts pretend to gun down state reps". Not good.Quote:

Show all the true statistics of gun violence (or lack there of) and pick apart all the arguments that are plastered on the left's media outlets.
Kinda like the ones posted of; pregnant women, old guys, kids? i thought about this also; include some DHS Agents, FBI, politicians, U.N peace keepers, etc..... $$$ maker million dollar idea there! Like stated above how about add a target with the Constitution on it.... Shit were does one stop with the possibilities!! [Bang]Quote:

For Chrissake, I wouldn't be surprised to see Democrat activists murder their own Democrat politicians as a means of discrediting conservatives, libertarians and the gun rights movement.
We certainly don't need to feed the beast with our own discussion of even thinking about symbolically shooting pictures of Democrat politicians.
A crime? Shit you should be mandated to threaten politicians at every opportunity that is presented, maybe they wouldn't be so cocky if they had to abide by the laws they pass, people could carry a gun around them without being prosecuted, etc.
I won't pass any judgement until they put up what was written. At this point in time I don't trust a single one of the polticians.
The ends justify the means. This is how the Democrats (CPUSA) operate. Anything, and I mean anything will be done to further their agenda.Quote:

“I guarantee there is not enough law enforcement or military to stop an all-out overthrow of this government if you or that n—– president tries to take our guns,” one e-mail dated Feb. 13 reads. “Guarantee we will make World War I and II look like child’s play, many will die. Be prepared.”
Another e-mail expresses hope that someone would “Giffords” both Fields and Rep. Beth McCann, an apparent reference to the 2011 mass shooting that nearly killed Arizona Rep. Gabby Giffords.
The paper letter attributed to Sain states, “There will be blood! I’m coming for you, n—– b—–.” The letter was postmarked Feb. 16.
I very much doubt he's a plant but I'll wait to see what exactly the "threats" were before passing judgment.
As far as DHC's hypothetical goes, incredibly bad idea, even posting it as a hypothetical plays into the antis' efforts to label us all as deranged whackos bent on solving differences of opinion with violence. Use your standard bad guy and zombie targets but do NOT put up pictures of political leaders no matter how screwy you think they are. I'm sure some people may have some difficulty telling the difference between a zombie and Harry Reid or Nancy Pelosi but just look for the green skin.
Yeah - probably so. I have those (unbelievably bad idea) from time to time.Quote:

I'll tuck my tail and skulk away now, duly chastised . . .
Edit to Add: For the record, the image I was conjuring had absolutely nothing to do with race or gender. The particular Dem I had in my imagination is the same race and gender as me. Just want to be clear.

Not enough information on what this individual said or did!
Isn't that called a lobbyist?Quote:

You probably aren't the only person to think of it I bet. Don't skulk too far away.

Wow. This guy would be the last guy I would have pegged writing something like what they are accusing him of.

CEO of a healthcare IT company that does some work for the .gov.. and his management staff looks fairly diverse.
Hopefully there is no fallout and it falls under the radar. We do not need crazies.. we need intelligent people forming intelligent arguments and exposing these politicians for what they are.
Maybe they changed it, or you got some bad info- the guy arrested for the threats on the CO rep was Franklin Sain... not one of the people on that link...Quote:

That website has changed since I posted it. He was/is the CEO of that company. His picture was in the upper right hand corner when I posted it...
The news report even state he was the CEO. Now the guy in the upper left is the new CEO. So the website has been updated to take him off the page..
