The Liberty Sphere Report for 4/7/2010 (Video).
A man has been arrested by the FBI for making alleged death threats to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
The mainstream media, the Obama Administration, and Democrats in Congress wish to implicate the Tea Party in such threats, along with false accusations that ordinary citizen activists are violent, dangerous, and extremist.
Nothing could be further from the truth.

Heard this on Rush this afternoon. Guy’s 83 year-old mother(bless her heart) says her son got this way from watching Fox News. Wow. There’s a shock! F’ing red-herring, agit-prop bs the Left is always pulling.
ping for later
I appreciate your point but...you have specific info to refute his mother's assertion?
The article is here if you click on the ‘’most recent’’ icon. I was in traffic and didn’t get the whole thing, but suffice to say it’s always FN’s fault, Bush’s etc. As I said the thread is here on FR today.
So, here is more information:
Assistant U.S. Attorney Cynthia Frey said in court that Giusti has had a history of harassment and has a criminal history. He was convicted of making harassing phone calls in 1991 and In 2004, he pleaded no contest in San Mateo County to a felony charge of making criminal threats and was sentenced to a year in jail and probation. He also had numerous convictions for theft. Also, Giusti was a well-known fare evader on Caltrain and had threatened a conductor who tried to collect his fare. Giusti is more than 6 feet tall and weighs over 300 pounds.
The conductor called the sheriff's office and Giusti was arrested.
Giusti was also convicted in San Mateo County in two misdemeanor vandalism cases involving Bay Area Rapid Transit in the 1990s.
In January 1992, he was convicted of felony petty theft, sentenced to 120 days in an alternative program and told to stay away from Club Donatello, where the theft occurred, Buckelew said.
Two months later, Giusti was convicted in a welfare fraud case. He pleaded guilty to one felony count of perjury and was ordered to pay $5,121 in restitution, according to Buckelew.
On Feb. 1, 2004, the district attorney's office recommended that Giusti be sent to state prison. But the judge decided instead to give him one year in county jail, three years’ supervised probation, mental health treatment, and a payment to the victim of $400. His probation expired in 2008.
Giusti was most recently involved in a lawsuit filed in September 2009 by the Hamilton Square Baptist Church on San Francisco's Geary Boulevard. The church filed the lawsuit when Giusti became involved in harrasment against the church after he was told to leave the church for his conduct with members of the congregation.
Giusti, 62, lives in a public housing complex in the city's Tenderloin district. He has lived in subsidized housing for almost 10 years. He was known to engage tenants in heated political arguments and was not well liked by those in the complex.
My question: Does this man in any way resembles someone you would associate with the Tea Party movement? A person who has lived for 10 years on govenment subsidized housing would most likely be a liberal DemonRAT!
Sounds like a Pelosi voter to me.

That was my first thought when I saw the newscast that mentioned his “government subsidized” apartment. Couple that with his mom saying it’s because of Fox news(another poster called her comment typical left wing agitprop)and there is a very strong aroma here of something that was staged by the left.
If anything, the real answers to the questions about this incident will be buried as soon as they fail to fit the template. That template seeks to tie those who oppose Zer0’s insane policies as sufficient to inspire others to engage in violence or threats of violence. Just like video games inspire violent behavior. Uh huh.
