We have to show them that their intimidation, oppression and belligerence no longer works. This is a new day and we’re not going to take it anymore.

Time has come for the Great Backlash.

Find the terrorists who made these threats and permanently remove the threat of their terrorism.

Did he really think that the Left would kill a blind singer? Very bad optics. He caved because of possible injury to his career.

Performers are so brave; NOT. Playing a part or performing and being paid far too much doesn’t take guts or bravery. These “not” brave celebrities and performers should walk in our troop’s or law enforcement officer’s shoes for 24 hours and see what “real life” is all about instead of playing a part, ya think?

Our Way or The Casket.

Bingo. The Left is at war with the Right. They want to annihilate and dominate, via California. The Left views Trump like he is a veritable Patton of the Right.

'A death threat to a blind man, how “progressive”.'

The Left has always been about HATE, but, now that Trump and the Truth he speaks have threatened their agenda and delusions, their HATRED has become explosive.

Violence is just beneath the surface.

The situation is very dangerous.

The Left has always projected its own evils onto others--e.g. HATE, intolerance, racism, hypocrisy, narrow-mindedness, greed, anger, mercilessness, a craving for violence, et al.--while pretending to be free of such evils themselves. With the election of Trump, those evils have erupted in plain view for all to see. They are real. They are explosive. They are ugly. They are dangerous.

The danger, the HATRED, the violence cannot be overestimated!

These people are violent, and they are dangerous!

If the death threats are so serious,
I would suggest arrests and charges.
Any credible threat to an inaugural
performer is a potential threat to
our President.

I know, right? What I don’t get is that I don’t recall Trump ever having said or done anything at all against them.

Yes, they have the lion’s share of the influence. It’s not because they have guns, but they have the LAWYERS. With the politics of personal destruction, they will sue anyone they don’t like, and with the abundance of liberal judges, they can destroy your life, your career, and any chance you may have to lead a normal life.

Do not be surprised if a number of folks will go to D.C. locked and loaded in order to protect themselves against the nuts despite the laws there against guns.

If a liberal/commie was threatened the feds would have the offender(s) in jail. Lynch and DOJ do ZIP.

Lynch and Obama openly side with criminals, including those who threaten blind singers for singing at the Inauguration of a president they didn’t vote for. They’re not just protecting terrorists, they’re supporting pathetic terrorists.
