On the heals of announcements of the formation of a local Eureka Ca. ( Humboldt County ) committee and fund raising for the construction of a bust or statue of former president George W. Bush, local and state left wing radicals have announced terror threats and plans to destroy the proposed statue by explosion.

“ We are aware of the threats and are not able at this time to discuss any investigation by federal and local authorities. We can say that the Topix forum hosting corporate office is aware of the situation of their service being used to further terroristic threats.”

[TexasBeth]

Good grief. And we’re the ones they’re worried about.

[skully]

Whew!! Good thing its not a threat from those crazy RW extremists; Homeland Security has been warning us about.

[a fool in paradise]

Because after 40 years of bomb throwing liberals, they have now risen to the highest ranks of power in this country and can have the political purge of Conservatives that they have dreamed of for 40 years.

It isn’t the crime they are prosecuting, it is the ideology.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

Exactly. *rolls eyes*

[peace with honor]

a bunch of real brave PUNKS, would love to sit, ( I know, I can be a tree sitter )and wait on them to show

[EGPWS]

local and state left wing radicals

Freedom Fighters.

If they were tea party attendees they would be right wing terrorists. /s

[Roccus]

Eureka PING!

[locke22]

they actually think the feds don’t investigate things like this, idiots.

[cripplecreek]

Yo Janet, got some more bombers for you to take a look at.

[w1andsodidwe]

Please don't disagree with Obama, we must have bipartisanship. No criticism allowed.

But blowing up a statue of GW is OK, because we didn't like him.

This logic escapes me.

[madameguinot]

Really! You saw the unrestrained mayhem that ensued at those tea parties... oh wait a minute that was the leftists at the G20! Never mind.

[albie]

When BO gets a statue erected in Ithaca, Austin, Burlington, wherever I doubt he’ll strike the same powerful pose as W.

He’ll be wiping his skinny arse with the Constitution in his and all will be well.

[RepubRep]

I just can not wrap my pea brain around such craziness. Is there no end to what the far left will stoop to when something happens they do not happen to like?

Rally around abortion clinics . . . kill babies cause it is our right but blow up a statue of Bush cause he is evil. Good Lord what on earth is happening to this society???

[La Lydia]

Words have meaning. You cannot terrorize a statute. You can threaten it, you can vandalize it, you can blow it up, you can pull it down, you can expose it to bird poop. But it is not a conscious being, and cannot be terrorized.

[cripplecreek]

It’s true that the statue is an inanimate thing but it is an expresion of speech or beliefes. Any attack on the statue is an attack on the beliefes of others.

[La Lydia]

So, an attack on the beliefs of others, as opposed to an attack on others, is an act of terrorism?

[locke22]

You do not know the defination of terror. The victim of terror is never the intended target.

[SonnyBubba]

Word to idiot liberals, George W Bush doesn’t have the power anymore to do anything. None ,nilch, nada.

[cripplecreek]

So, an attack on the beliefs of others, as opposed to an attack on others, is an act of terrorism?

In a sense yes. The threat to blow up a statue is a pretty extreme thing to do. It's a little hard to see this as less than a threat to the ideology behind the statue. The bombing of an abortion clinic may not be a direct attack on abortion supporters but it is a threat just the same as burning down churches.
