The Sheriff should remove the Congresscritter for inciting a riot.

“This is a complex issue” - Translation: “You voters are too stupid to understand”.

Arrogant or not, this is an epidemic of congressmen going home to VERY hostile town meetings. If this reaches critical mass, look out.

What if, when he threatened to call the sheriff, the crowd,in anger, rushed him and he found himself stabbed or shot to death - it is not inconceivable with this many people this angry together.

I suspect it would be the “shot heard ‘round the country”.

“This is a complex issue.” = “You have no idea how much money is being shifted under the table to make this happen.”

Something somewhere has to give. We The People are being pushed beyond our limits.

Yup. The guy seemed to have the attitude that he was the judge and that was his courtroom. Our government officials think they are royalty.

Unfortunately, that could be the excuse for Obama to impose martial law, a curfew and vast restrictions on public assembly and speech.

I think we are relatively safe from anything “giving” unless they actually DO anything. But then, there are a lot of people against this that do not have any belief in a creator holding them back, so you never know.

I doubt it, unless he is really, REALLY stupid. It would empower all those “reasonable” people that have been stocking up on guns and ammo. It would be the trigger they have been preparing for.

I said in a previous post that I think it would take the government actually DOING something for this to reach a violent critical mass. If they did what you suggest, it would be all out civil war.

This has happened because we peons for years have ignored their cashing in as lobbyists as soon as they are out of office, their junkets around the world paid for by us peons. Not a peep, just a whimper and and a grumble when we pay our taxes. Like frogs simmering in a pot of water, they have finally reached the boiling point. Now they are jumping out of that pot in record numbers, simply to save themselves and their country from these charlatans.

Charles I was English royalty.

Nicholas II was Russian royalty.

Maybe that's how we should deal with our royalty.

When it happens let’s hope it’s a registered Democrat doing the killing ~ and a registered Democrat getting killed (of course).

Or perhaps "This issue is too complex for me to understand, so I have to use the Democrat (aka Socialism) Talking Points and READ this to you."
