Several Colorado lawmakers were sent threatening emails and voice mails because of bills they introduced in colorado. At least one of the nuts, has been arrested. The irony is that if any of them is convicted of a felony, which is possible they will not qualify to own guns in Colorado or most other States. 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.
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.
For people sending letters to Their representative is completely appropriate. Threatening a person's life as well as their children. That is far over the line. This was a IT executive who is now facing felony charges, and will likely go to jail and never be able to own a gun again. Good riddance to bad rubbish.
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.
"Texas Republicans recently unveiled a policy platform that includes a statement of support for legislation that would make it a felony to issue a marriage license to same-sex couples as well as for an official to perform a marriage ceremony for gay partners wishing to wed."
"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.
Colorado just started a recall and it is going strong. All the kalifornians in denver and the front range do not represent us the lines are drawn and we will keep our pro gun pro hunting heritage
We are fighting the good fight here too. Plenty Colorado blood here now.
