“How hard is it for us to stake out one of the obvious access roads to some tech company, tail an employee home and toss a liquor bottle full of flaming gasoline through their nice picture window into their cute house,” wrote the author of the email.
The email references terminology that has been used in the “Occupy Wall Street” movement - that of 1 percent super-rich exploiting the remaining 99 percent of Americans. The angry message demanded that Albany politicians “stop shoveling wealth from the lower 99% into the top 1%” and “set aside your ‘no new taxes on anybody’ pledge.”
Hope they catch the violent, leftist, anarchist thugs who are sending these emails.
Several influential New York state lawmakers have received threatening mails saying it is “time to kill the wealthy” if they don’t renew the state’s tax surcharge on millionaires, according to reports.
“It’s time to tax the millionaires!” reads the email, according to WTEN in Albany. “If you don’t, I’m going to pay a visit with my carbine to one of those tech companies you are so proud of and shoot every spoiled Ivy League [expletive] I can find.”

State Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver and State Senate Majority Leader Dean Skelos reportedly received the email, as did State Assembly Majority Leader Ron Canestrari. The governor’s office did not tell the New York Daily News whether the governor received the email.
The email, with the threatening subject line of, “time to kill the wealthy,” was detailed and disturbing.

Class Warfare is closer then ever. There are some who want the Occupy Wall Street protesters to get violent. These are Dangerous times.

So....erm...Jermaine... what is your point? How likely is this, hmmm?? FAIL.
As horrible as it sounds, I wouldn't rule out yet another Shay's Revolution in this country, for good or bad. I've seen this on bumper stickers a lot since 2009...
"The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants."
I guess that is calling for peace.

Well it's my was my opinion that with that type of violent rhetoric, things could get pretty dangerous.
How is posting a news article and posting my opinion a "fail?"
I thought my opinion and the quote/article was pretty straight forward.
Eh whatever.
