Baio, however, insisted the post was just a joke and shared screenshots of several death threats he received. "Easy to find your house Scottie boy and finish you," one commenter wrote while another...

Brian Baird after concluding that the message left on Baird's Washington, D.C., office phone in August did not constitute a serious threat.

"The investigation is now closed."

The normal routine of the League was interrupted Friday afternoon, when an anonymous caller called to say he owned guns and his next target was the former director of the League, Mike Heath (above).

The caller said the following: “I am calling about Mr. Mike Heath, the Executive of your Christian Civic League of Maine. He thinks that gay people should have our rights revoked that we already have. Well I can tell him this...

... one starts to wonder if the country wouldn't be better off without them and if Republicans should be cut out of the health-care system entirely and simply provided with aspirin and hand sanitizer.

Death threats to executives at American International Group Inc. because of the bonuses they received are one more sign of the utter degeneration of politics in our time. Rep. Barney Frank, Massachusetts Democrat, has threatened to summon these executives before his committee and force them to reveal their home addresses - which would, of course, put their wives and children at the mercy of whatever kooks might want to literally take a shot at them. Whatever the political or economic issues involved, this is not the way such issues should be resolved in America. We are not yet a banana...
