Rep. Brad Miller (D-NC) will not be hosting any town hall events this August -- instead, he's making himself available to constituents for one-on-one meetings about health care reform -- and at least part of the reason is this: His offices have received threatening phone calls, including at least one direct threat against his life....
"The call to the D.C. office was, 'Miller could lose his life over this,'" said Canipe. "Our staffer took it so seriously, he confirmed what the guy was saying. He said, 'Sir is that a threat?' and at that time our staffer was getting the phone number off caller ID and turning it over to the Capitol Police."...

Brad you chickenshlt!
I was going to take a day of and come see you since you don’t have the COURTESY to answer my letters anymore....
Jackas$.
If that be the case, prosecute him/her to the fullest extent of the law. Death threats should NOT be tolerated. That being said, prove it. Release the call,police report, and whatever pertinent information is necessary.
Crickets?????
My life has been threatened by HR 3200.
My life has been threatened as a result of this bill.
Now he knows how it feels.
Is a police report public record? Do the Capitol Hill police have to respond if asked whether or not the Rep’s office actually filed a report?
Filed a complaint, I mean...
He should apply for Secret Service protection to protect him from his constituents. Maybe we need armored Suburban’s and outriders for our Congresscritters. This is SERIES.
Their is nothing between them and the peasants with pitchforks.
Great minds....
Sounds like a convenient excuse to me. What district does this guy represent? Seems he’d get with the program and listen to what he’s being told by his constituents, but maybe Ms. Pelosi still keeps his testicles hanging from her rearview mirror. ;-)
HA!!!
Once again, we see liberals hide behind the cloak of the mysterious - and totally unveifiable - “death threats”. Any time liberals find themselves on the losing side of a debate they cry, “death threats” which is meant to garner victim status with the additional benefit of slandering the opposition, all conveniently without the chance of verifying the veracity of supposed “threats”.
There's your money quote. Democratic cowards...
Indeed. If Congress can use this excuse, then so can we:
I will not participate in Obama DeathCare because my life is threatened...
Expect to see more of it along with fake conservatives wearing swastikas and behaving badly at congresstard open houses...
When the left is losing, they go to extremes (actually, even when the left is not losing, they also go to extremes - it must be something wired into their faulty DNA)...
And you never respond to my direct qustions, do you, Stevie?
