... after he calls for Trump's impeachment (headline continued)
During a town hall meeting on Saturday, Congressman Al Green played recordings of threatening voicemail messages left for him after he demanded the impeachment of President Donald Trump on the House floor earlier this week.
"You'll be hanging from a tree," one caller said.
The calls use graphic racial slurs, some calling Green the n-word. "You ain't going to impeach anybody. Try it and we will lynch all of you," said a caller.
The Houston Democrat was the first member of Congress to call for Trump's impeachment from the House floor on Wednesday. The congressman said the firing of FBI Director James Comey is one of the reasons he's asking for impeachment.
"It does not deter us," Green said of the threats. "We are not going to be intimidated. We are not going to allow this to cause us to deviate from what we believe the right thing to do and that is to proceed with the impeachment of President Trump."
At the town hall in southwest Houston, a group of about 100 people gathered to hear from the congressman. The meeting was high security, filled with police officers milling around the building. Participants were also wanded down by security officials before entering the meeting.
Green has received threatening messages from callers at his offices in Houston and Washington, said Camille Scott, a spokeswoman for him.

Until it don’t work...
what a shame that’s all that was thrown at him.
I wish he would go to Guam and tip over
You can dish it out but ya can’t take it can ya, Al.
Pathetic. Not to mention criminal.
Odds are they’ll try and track down the folks who threatened to lynch him- 0:0.
The voices on the line issues a threat. Go on and make an example of them. Unless...
Tell your homeboys to stop threatening to kill white babies, and maybe we can start a civil discourse, congressman.

This should be seriously investigated so that we can find out he fabricated them himself.
I misread the title as “rectal slurs”.
I read it at home and used lots of slurs. Would likely have the same response again.
It’s terrible being human /s
#### him.
When he threatens what is essentially a coup, he should worry about a lot more than racial slurs.
That old windbag. No one pays any attention to him in Houston. He’s not worth the trouble of threatening him.
Fake News, attention deprived
Darn. And I really liked his music.
I hope Barry White don’t pull this krap.
I would agree with your suspicions. I happen to live in his district, and Queen Sheila’s is across the street.
Has the FBI figured out which of his constituents committed this fabricated crime for him?
Needs cleaning up before he steps out in public again.
Congressman, the 70’s want that hair back.
Those go to Anderson Cooper and Shep Smith.
