Yes hatred and evil comes in many forms and colors. Not that shocking or frightening.

This letter is not frightening to you?

Wow.

Why am I even surprised?

What do Fox, EIB or Palin have to do with this? What's the matter with you? Are you completely incapable of a simple emotion of disgust, or do you only trot that out against your percieved political enemies?
Shouldn't you be over on the latest Sarah Palin hate thread.

Reading the letter made me feel sorry for the person who wrote it. It would be just as bad a crime for me to hate him as it is for him to hold to those beliefs. Two wrongs don't make a right. Now, where did he get this information? Was the source deliberate, in other words, was it given with malicious intent? The worst thing about what he wrote was the violence he wanted to use. I'm not scared. We should heal this person. Being afraid only lets him get away with it.

Your not surprised most likely because of the lack of experience from which you draw you conclusions about my observation.

Another Loughner-like liberal lunatic. I'm sure the media will find a way to blame it on Sarah Palin.

For those who think we've left this kind of thing behind, think again.
Joe Biden?

Obama before the Jews under the bus speech?

DU contribution?

Maybe if liberals weren't always blaming the OKC bombing and the Arizona shooting and everything else on Republicans without any evidence then people wouldn't say this was done by liberals.

Not frightening? It would be if the letter mentioned you by name or the nut job who wrote it lived next door to you. Come to think about it he/she could be living next to you. The cavalier attitude in which you accept hatred and evil as the norm helps these kinds of people grow in numbers.
