I understand that Andrea Boccelli was also receiving Death Threats.

Oh puh-leeze. Who’s gonna kill her? Her Hollywood pals? The only thing they could kill is a good buzz by speaking.

Sounds like Miss Holliday doesn’t take advantage of her 2nd Amendment rights. If she did, she might respond to those who are harassing her with a resounding, “Screw you,” and go right ahead with her inauguration plans, like most FReepers would.

What a pity.

I thought it was because of ‘race’.

She had the gun placed the forehead of her career and was told to make a choice. The Tolerance Nazis got to her.

Whatever happened to, “Let’s agree to disagree & go get a coffee?”

So have any repubs gone on the lefty TV news shows and asked if the hosts approve of their side threatening to kill performers?

[fella]

Terroristic threats are a felony in some states.

So the LGBT mafia intimidated an African-American woman who simply chose to sing at the inauguration of the President of the United States right after MLK day?

I read yesterday on Yahoo that the Bruce Springstein cover band (don’t remember their name) also just pulled out of the inauguration entertainment.

This is why scholar Marc Lamont Hill can talk about the “mediocre Negroes” supporting Trump.

Mediocre = Brave

Exactly.

She was made an offer she couldn’t refuse... ;)
