Assassination attempt on representatives

[USFREEDOM911]

Not really. Not in my book. If someone is after you for something, they think they have a reason.

Where did I say they didn't have a "reason"; but "fearing for your life" is not an empty comment.
The next time someone offends you, tell them they "better fear for their life" and see if the local authorities think it just means what you think it does.

Republican receives threat after shooting, warning "one down, 216 to go..."

A House Republican received a threatening email to her congressional office Wednesday following the shooting at the Republicans' practice for Thursday's congressional baseball game.

The lawmaker, Rep. Claudia Tenney, R-New York, received an email with the subject line: "One down, 216 to go…," according to a screenshot of the email provided by Tenney's office.

The body of the email read: "Do you NOT expect this? When you take away ordinary peoples very lives in order to pay off the wealthiest among us, your own lives are forfeit. Certainly, your souls and morality were lost long before. Good riddance." A threat was sent to Rep. Claudia Tenney, R-New York on June 14, 2017 after the shooting in Alexandria.

Tenney's spokeswoman, Hannah Andrews, said her office receives similar threats all the time, but Andrews said, "This was particularly disturbing and disheartening given this morning's tragic events." Capitol Police have been informed about the threat, Andrews said.

On Tenney's official Facebook page, someone recently also posted a threatening comment aimed at her son, an active duty U.S. Marine currently deployed to the Middle East. The Memorial Day post said, "Waiting on your son to come back bagged," according to a screenshot provided by Tenney's office.

Tenney was elected to the House last November and previously served as a member of the New York State Assembly.

But being held accountable and "fearing for your job" is totally different then "fearing for your life" and you know it.

With most legislators residing in comfortably gerrymandered districts, there is absolutely no political accountability. We have a moron in the White House, who has appointed some really idiots to run important aspects of our society.

The majority in this country do NOT agree with what is happening right now.


There is no accountability, as the system has been sold to the highest bidder.

Does Arab Spring ring a bell?

Not one of them thinks it might be a good idea to lighten up the rhetoric.

Or similar actions that make our legislators sit up and take note. Quite a few shootings never end up with anyone getting hit. Of course I don't cheer anyone getting hurt like that Republican asshole who probably blocked any legislation keeping guys like this from getting a gun. I merely stated that this has been a long time coming, and have said so on these boards.

What do you expect?

OHHHHHHHHHHH; so you just want them "shot at", but not "hit"!!

Yeah, I'm thinking someone might want to talk to you; in private.

I am noticing you are referring to all politicians, not just one party. And the gist of what you are saying is hard to disagree with. Hold them accountable, make them do what they were elected to do. Move the country ahead. I am onboard with that way of thinking.

Odd how you didn't care about trump's call to have his '2nd amendment people' take care of Hillary.

Look Zipperhead. There is a reason I usually do not bother answering you. You are nothing other than a lonely drama queen.

You're trying to back pedal this, to the wrong people.
You might want to save it and begin preparing your explanations; for when you get a knock on you door or you get a visit, where you work.

This shooting has lost many party members for Dems. It's a losing strategy, like the Civil War and Hillary.

Even more odd, how you don't see the problems your comment can cause you.

Correct. They're all whoring thieves. They're too comfortable. It would be helpful if there was a specific message attached to these heinous acts, so that the idiots in Washington actually have something to aim for.

Like doing their jobs.

Yea...because the FBI is worried about a person discussing the status of society today.

I've been saying this is going to happen on these boards for years. Nobody's knocked on my door yet.

 

[USFREEDOM911]

Look Zipperhead. There is a reason I usually do not bother answering you. You are nothing other than a lonely drama queen.

Well then, mop head; just continue to ignore me and maybe possibly explain your support of what was said, to a "higher authority".

Dude....your foil hat has a few wrinkles.

Your comment was and is not a discussion of "the status of society today".

And the key word in your post was "yet".

Just ask Watermark how a "supposedly Innocuous statement" turned out for him.

Well then, mop head; just continue to ignore me and maybe possibly explain your support of what was said, to a "higher authority".

Go for it Zipperhead. Tell me how it works out for you.

YEAH, you keep using that as your defense.

Most of the kids here won't remember this



The spirit was freedom and justice
And its keepers seemed generous and kind
Its leaders were supposed to serve the country
But now they won't pay it no mind
Cause the people grew fat and got lazy
Now their vote is a meaningless joke
They babble about law and order
But it's all just an echo of what they've been told
Yeah, there's a monster on the loose
It's got our heads into the noose
And it just sits there watchin'

 

[USFREEDOM911]

Go for it Zipperhead. Tell me how it works out for you.

I'll never know; but it's not like you're going to admit that you got visited.

 

[Sailor]

I say just vote them all out. Everyone. Top to bottom. Good, bad or indifferent and start again.
