An abortion opponent is brutally murdered, the offices of a group helping to organize the "tea parties" receives a bomb threat, Republican voters are threatened by members of a hate group during a presidential election, opponents to socialized medicine are assaulted at town hall meetings, pro-military demonstrators and troops returning home from Iraq are assaulted by "peace protesters."

So what is the reaction by the mainstream media, by the civil rights enforcers and "civil liberties" groups?

It ranges from muted to absolute silence!

Oh sure, there are the obligatory ...

Jim Lehrer (PBS, D): "Crack their heads. Crack their heads.
Crack their heads for Obamacare and PBS.
Have no fear. None of us will ever report it."

It already is. This can be considered the first shot. The question is when, where, and against whom does the response begin?

Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

>>>a 63-year-old disabled man was gunned down - because of his opposition <<<

Can you reference a couple of links regarding this story? I would like to send to liberals. I searched on google news and could not find a single story in MSM which proves your point..

I take it you found it?

It’s nice to know that my blog does, occasionally, accomplish something.

So you think this is our new Lexington/Concord?
Perhaps that’s why things are SOOO quiet today. (It seems too quiet.)

Indeed: SEIU, BATFE, ACORN, somewhere else? Where is the attack going to be?

There were several threads on FR about this story yesterday. The Drudge Report has a link at the top of the first (left-hand-side) column just below the large "DRUDGE REPORT" letters (story includes a photo of the pro-life activist in his wheelchair, and includes information on the suspect).

TAKE ACTION NOW - NO MORE SITTING ON THE SIDELINES
The thing we have to do now, without any hesitation, is vote out this current Congress in 2010. Then take back our Nation in 2012. If we do not mobilize ourselves and others now to do this in ways far beyond where most of us have ever engaged in political matters, we will lose this country. And have ourselves to blame.
FRIENDS, WE CAN NO LONGER JUST 'PREACH TO THE CHOIR' -- WE MUST CARRY THIS MESSAGE TO ALL WE KNOW AND ACT NOW. THIS IS NOT A DRILL.

Indeed: SEIU, BATFE, ACORN, somewhere else? Where is the attack going to be?

Here, there, everywhere, house to house. This is an insurgency, not a battlefield engagement. They have over-run our country and captured our capital, infiltrated our state and local governments, and have something like half the population willing and able to act as their Stasi.
