The letters came in the mail, and they bore a chilling message:
You will have to kill me and my family before you get my guns. Anyone wants to come to my house will get shot in the face. The right to bear arms is my constitutional right and I will excersice [sic] that right til the day I die. whats in the letter is nothing compared to what ive got planned for you.
The first one was addressed to Michael Bloomberg, the most visible face of the anti-gun movement, but it was intercepted at a postal facility that screens mail for New York celebrities. (No one will ever poison one of them, just an expendable postal worker, the new Ruling Class equivalent of Cleopatra’s food taster). Within a few days an identical letter with an identical date and postmark came to Mark Glaze, the guy who does the day-to-day gruntwork of trying to disarm America for his boss, Michael Bloomberg, at his lobbying firm The Raben Group, 1640 Rhode Island Avenue NW, Washington DC. Glaze was not covered by postal special treatment at the time, but the envelope was opened, as all mail to Washington lobbyists is, by an expendable intern.
Those few individuals who seriously study criminal communications, like these letters, can often utter an opinion with some degree of confidence about whether the letter is written by an actual idiot, or by an intelligent and educated person impersonating an idiot. These letters do show deliberate misspellings and usage “errors” of the type used in such an impersonation.
A third letter with slightly variant text, and with a curious absence of spaces after most periods, but with the same Louisiana postmark was sent to the President. It read (bold text is added variation from the Bloomberg/Glaze letters, strikethrough is material deleted that was in those letters):
You will have to kill me and my family before you get my guns.Anyone wants to come to my house will get shot in the face.I served in the united states army and because your muslim ass will probly never be able to retire.I will have to work until my last breath.I deserve better and so do my wife and kiddos.I will take care of this myself and make sure you wont be runnin this country in the ground any further.
The right to bear arms is my constitutional right and I will excersice [sic] that right til the day I die. What’s in the letter is nothing comparedtowhat ive gotplannedin store for you mr president.
All three letters tested positive for ricin, using a somewhat insensitive field test. No one was exposed to lethal levels of the toxin (lethal levels being extremely small), fortunately. But the publicity over the letters wasn’t what the putative sender might have expected. Glaze, Bloomberg, and Obama, and their partisans and the media (but we repeat ourselves!) received the news with something approximating delight. The letters were proof that gun owners were murderous, insurrectionist sickos, fully deserving the IRS audits and whatever other miseries federal authorities could bring down on them. Editorials and “news analyses” (i.e., the New York Times equivalent of the front-page editorial formerly favored by Pravda pre-1992) piled imprecations on the presumed facilitator and enabler of this act of terrorism: the NRA, naturally.
Meanwhile, the actual investigation took another turn.
Postal inspectors have access to some of the coolest new tools in the Patriot Act toolbox. Every piece of mail is imaged, databased, and stored forever (just like the source, destination, duration, and location of every phone call, apparently). The Bloomberg and Obama letters were quickly tracked through a Shreveport postal center, back to a bunch of mail that came in through New Boston and Texarkana, Texas.

I dated a few.
Lot of fun. Ended badly.
As per usual.
It was ever thus.
I was thinking more reloading her Thorazine suppositories.
Her soon-to-be-ex-husband has got to be breathing such a sigh of relief to be FARRRR away from this "psychotic psycho chick wot acts psychotic."
Is it not always the case? Conservatives don’t attack women and don’t assault black people or homosexuals so “well meaning” leftists do it for them on the thought that “well that is their nature, they should do those things,” and besides they need the bad publicity.
They are so brainwashed by the narritive that when confronted with the truth that is the opposite of the indoctrination they see it as a “duty” to try to make it “true”....
I wrote that one. :)
Her poor kids....although they are probably better off now anyway.
This loon lives in Texas. The Vampire Diaries she was in was filmed in Georgia. We have enough kooks out hear of are know. Texas must take responsibility for this one. Remember Austin, need I say more?
Lol. If I manage to secure a decent disability without being declared incompetent for being too pro-gun, I’m fleeing to some US gun sanctuary. Or to Uniontowm, and we’ll *make* it a gun sanctuary :).

I doubt that "presorted, lobbyist reduced rate" SPAM mail gets this treatment.
The Socialist left are the owners of projection.
Ha. A zombie. Yeah, they don’t like guns. Interferes with eating people.

Austin needs to be dug up and dumped in either the ocean or on top of LA or NewYork....
The media splashed the content of the letters all over their websites and made it a lead story, in their hope to finally have a conservative “gun nut” to use as a pinata for their unconstitutional gun grabbing. Another FAIL. And another round of under coverage about the real truth of the story.
