********* (The REAL Americans) Protest

[JoeHooker]

Dear *********s,

\"Excuse me, your racism is showing\"

The thing is, this IS still America, each of us still has a born in right to think any way we want to (no matter how bizzare), & we've still got freedom of speach as well.
But when it came to SPITTING on people, it was just wrong NOT to take the spitters to jail!!!!!!! This is the era of AIDS & other exotic diseases, so that should be construed as assault with a deadly weapon.
At least that's my opinion.
What's your's?

We can agree on that Joe! Without free speech it would be nearly impossible to tell who the *******s are in real time.

Do you think these are isolated incidents or do you think they are prominent throughout the *********s, Republicans or conservatives? Do you think there is a possibility that they could be plants by a more radical liberal group?

No doubt more radical liberals trying to make the "*********s, Republicans or conservatives" look bad. Those radical liberals are a crafty bunch indeed.

It breaks my heart to understand the lack of concern these people in these links are carrying for their fellow citizens. Once again...it is the perfect picture of those who can step up to the camera and say...'I've got mine...to heck with you'. The majority of them consider themselves to be Christian...double irony!!

[ted4502000]

The majority of them consider themselves to be Christian...double irony!!

I call it hypocritical.

It's like someone in a church saying: " we don't want that person as a member, he's a sinner". My understanding is that religion and churchs are to save sinners?? Right? So you have to take in bad apples and show them, "or let them find" the right path.

Those sneaky radical liberals strike again..............

Radical liberal atheists, no doubt..........

Ahhhh the joys of a representative form of government. Even if you represent the views of the majority in your district you are also the representative for some blooming nut jobs as well. How has governing become such a win/loose, competitive/adversarial progress that people become so inflamed over what are realistically short term issues (what can be done can be undone with enough political will-power).

[JoeHooker]

What's bothering me right now, is all of the violent reaction to the passage of the "Health Reform" bill. SURE studies show that 3/4s of Americans were against it, SURE many people feel they have every right to be mad as h__l at their representatives for voting against their wishes. BUT, vote them out if you don't like what they've done! Throwing bricks, threatening people, cutting gas lines & such are just CHILDISH & make the people doing such things look so much stupider than the arrogent reps. who voted against the wishes of those who'd elected them.
WE've got an election coming up, if anyone is REALLY mad (& not just trying to get their own minute of fame) it's time to get organized & elect someone else to do what your reps. didn't do.

Republican whip Cantor is also the victim of attacks, including that his office was shot at:

That rips it!
Every time some lunatic uses a gun to break a law, it brings us another step closer to loosing our 2nd ammendment completetly.
I hope some officer somewhere catches whoever did that 1, & that the perp does life!!!!!!

Any representative who has received threatening phone calls, experienced damage to their properties, or been threatened in anyway has a duty to report these illegal acts.

Evidence Please?

[HoosierHelen]

Evidence Please?

If Cantor files a legal report regarding his attack, he certainly will be asked for legal evidence. Is that why he isn't filing a report?

For clarity, what follows is purely sarcasm:
We already lost our 10th amendment. Why stop at only that one?

The second paragraph of the story says the Richmond Police confirmed to CNN (the media that wrote the story - see, they are attempting to corroborate) that a bullet had been fired into the office. Is that what you were looking for?

Good Grief! If someone fired a bullet into the front window of my office and/or my home...I would totally be filing police report. WHY is this man resisting filing a report of a criminal act?

I must have missed the part of the story where it says he hasn't filled a report of a criminal act (related to the shooting). The only thing I saw in there was that he wasn't reporting/releasing the threatening phone calls that he got. I didn't see anything on not reporting bullet holes. As that is something visible to an officer while standing in public space, I'm not even sure he would have to.

Just for clarity, even if there is a bullet hole, that doesn't prove when or how it got there. Second, if he didn't report any of the other harrasments, {we only have his word, something I will not trust,} How can we believe anything he says.Third, Now that he has played the race card,[ Just for information, I am not an anti-semite, I realize better than most of you that Jewish people get that response,]He is totally suspect,but for him to use that to justify, or deny, the attacks on Dems, or the reporting thereof, is ludicrous.
