Even funnier is that the idiots will not have access to their guns while they are sitting in jail.

These threatening emails will have little effect as Colorado is controlled by democrats and the gun legislation is popular in that state.

The gun-nutz deserve whatever restrictions they get.

does that also mean when some people on the left side of the aisle have their moments, that we can also jail them as well?

Since it appears several people agree with me, I suggest you send her an email. As you can see nothing happened to me, but this has more beyond you letting Mrs Fields know how you feel.

This is about destroying the signal to noise ration. If she gets 10 "threatening" emails, she can probably pay for them to be investigated. If she receives 1 million she no longer can and emails go uninvestigated. And she feels less secure. Eventually this protection will have to be lifted and these emails will keep coming.

The first step is for us to rob the politicians of their feeling of safety. I try and do my best whenever such is brought to my attention. Thanks hotair.

Your were wrong about no nut jobs responding.

It is not a threat, it is a realistic result of ones actions. The founders spoke of such consequences by the actions of corrupt governments.

Telling someone that if they disregard liberty, it will ultimately result in a backlash of defense against such tyranny is not a threat, it is reality.

You can not continue to oppress people and think they will not eventually act. Our entire nation was founded on the fear government should have of its people. It exists to keep them in check. Government should fear its people and that fear should drive it to insure that liberty is always protected.

Fischer: Make Homosexuality "A Criminal Offense" | Right Wing Watch

"American Family Association spokesman Bryan Fischer called on all fifty states to criminalize homosexuality...Fischer said that since for most of American history 'homosexual activity was a felony offense,' there is 'no reason why it cannot be a criminal offense once again.'"
WTF? The title of the thread is "Colorado lawmakers threatened by gun nuts." Take it somewhere else, hammer.
