Rep. Matt Gaetz said this week that he received a death threat following remarks he made about the school shooting last month in Nashville, and argued that leftists are driving their own side to violence with end-times rhetoric.
Speaking on Monday on his podcast “Firebrand,” the Fort Walton Beach Republican said, “Innocent people are forced to share a country with dangerous people,” and that violence is a natural consequence when Democrats repeatedly tell their followers that “Republicans are evil, and racist and fascist, and must be stopped at all costs.”

“Today we begin to disarm the CRIMINAL and the CARELESS and the INSANE. All of our people who are deeply concerned in this country about law and order should hail this day.”-— Lyndon Johnson signing the 1968 gun control act into law.
Today the CRIMINAL gets his felonies plea bargained down to misdemeanors and can still LEGALLY buy guns.
The CARELESS still injure themselves and others because gun safety classes have been removed from schools.
The INSANE and mentally ill, today who would have been locked up in the 1950s, are TODAY declared SANE, released on the streets and can now legally buy guns to shoot up schools and churches.
Most of the mass shooters in the last forty years would have been in an insane asylum if the hospitals had not been shut down in the 1970s. It was the brainchild of California Gov Edmund Brown in the 1960s..
Yes, he was a democrat.
Agree!
An idea way past due.
Reopening the asylums is vitally important if we are to treat the mentally deranged rather than accept them as normal.
Do you want to know what is legal and what is not.
Do we live by law and the constitution or not.
I am as angry as I have ever been, living in the results of the other side getting their way via no pushback.
I am a senior.. over 75.. and I am up to my limit on wrong being overlooked.
My father was in WWII.. he was one who went ashore at Normandy.. bullets from the hill, as he went ashore. “Run for your life! Don’t stop to help a fallen soldier.. run inland..run”.
Some of those boys 18 yrs old knew they might not make it. They did what military and America, asked of them.!!
We didn’t fight for land.. we fought to be free.
My husband served. My brother served. I’ll be da#%&@ if my dear grandson has to be called because the da##ed republican congress won’t fight to save our country from communism. The radical dems took over by force..while the gop watched.
I have never seen the United States in as bad a mess as this.
Get up off your Duffy and get the sick weak lying son of a zzzzppo..
Out the door and bring the man who can..back in.
Bring Trump back in NOW!!
I don’t like what I saw when I was given a tour of a place where “crazy people” were kept back around 1980.
The security guard offered it to my uncle and dad as entertainment but it was sad to see piles of *hit and hear about all the sexual activity going on.
The dormitories had open windows clothing hanging everywhere it was summertime.
It felt good to drive through that place with my wife in the 1990’s and see it empty.
Leftists who are subversives are around and perhaps if Gitmo is closed to those put there 20 years ago Biden is trying to wrap it up I would say send leftist subversives there give them the option to cross the border into the Communist paradise of Cuba or be treated like the Gitmo prisoners were.

LIKE!
Had an aunt who spent time in a asylum.
Bit off but very, very kind.
Took me every Christmas to Marshall Fields in downtown Chicago to sit on Santa’s lap. Great times.
Good idea. Maybe those suffering from gender dysphoria can learn to love their bodies the way they are, much like recovering anorexics, as opposed to bullying actual women into letting them into women’s sports, locker rooms, prisons, etc.
Some places were like you described, they were the bad ones that got everything shut down. I had a cousin that worked at the Central Virginia Training Center in Madison Heights, Virginia. They had everything from bedridden quasi vegetables to those who could care for themselves on a day to day basis.
They had one section where the violent were kept away from the rest of the patients, these were usually medicated to some degree.
Another section had the bedridden who needed 24/7 care. Those two groups were locked in place.
The third, and largest section, was for the people who could take care of themselves with little supervision. They had the run of the grounds except for the buildings I mentioned earlier. Was there sexual activity among that group? Sure there was. Can’t stop animal urges.
All in all the place did a pretty good job.
“I have never seen the United States in as bad a mess as this”.
I saw it coming with Obama, whose legacy continues with the cabal that orders Biden around. It’s time we used “Communist-Cheats” instead of “Democrat-Cheats”, but even with Trump, we have to overcome four to eight years of eligible young and wilfully-ignorant voters. (And suburban women who view Trump as their ex-husband).
I hope the RNC finds a way to project Biden’s many failures on a screen behind Trump as he speaks to America.
Maybe Kari Lake wouldn’t be such a bad choice for VP, as Maricopa vote-countings are still in dispute.
Ron DeSantis should probably be held “in reserve” until 2028, as a Trump/DeSantis loss would taint DeSantis’ chances indefinitely.
BTW, my Dad flew PBYs in the South Pacific and died before the 2020 “election”.
Agree!
The states were happy to close them, saves money and bother from lawsuits.
My wife was a nurse in downtown Portland, and the sheer number of “crazy, threat to self” homeless addicts was amazing. If they could place these folks somewhere so that they could get REAL help? It was do wonders for the homeless population. (Which means that they’ll NEVER allow it to happen. The “homeless population” is the cause for too big of a dem slush-fund.
Obama has been quiet.. which is a pretty good indication he is in the biden admin, as boss. when he was elected, his name among all the Presidents in our history, is not American.
He said we are not a Christian nation and he also said he came to fundamentally change this nation. and he said his most favorite sound was the muslim call to prayer.. that sound gives me the creeps..
Obama comes off as a tall good looking man of half color... and he can charm his followers. But he is anti American and anti our God.
To fix this mess... it gets worse every day. Just as congress does not want to take the time to go to New Palestine Ohio and to the southern border... they don’t want to do anything with biden. They are exempt from living the life out here where they could feel the effects of stupidity in Washington.
The republicans have played the part of the weaker brother of the two parties, and they don’t know how to take the lead. Reacting all the time does not do it. Rush used to say.. “ya have to defeat them”.
Stop wasting time and get things done the next day.. not the next month. They had a man in there who got things done and was not afraid to confront the enemy.. he ran circles around the rest of them.. and they didn’t want the change..What they have done to this one man.. Trump.. is the first time to witness the absolute thrashing of a good American .. one who didn’t have to do this.. he had a nice life.. and he has not quit on us...I dont see anyone else who could do what he has and will do once he is back. someone has to destroy the enemy within our gates.. someone has to stop the left from turning this nation into a commie land.
we are a lawless nation, with the ones in charge using all the powers of the government as they have not been used before. and NOTHING Is being done to stop the madness..!!!
All this grew when the clintons were in office.. and on with obama. the one side could do anything and the other side could do none of the anything.. raise kids that way and ya raise a rebellious kid.
Lawless and Godless... only the upper class can function.. the families who produce are targeted, This can’t go on. A bloodless coup and a weaker America.. a bloodless coup and they are going crazy with control... it angers me to see the way they are treating good vs bad.... out of control. and the republicans are content to talk and wait.. sit and do nothing.
I dont see any other willing to do the work but Trump. I don’t see anyone else able and willing to clean out the stink in Washington but Trump.. maybe they roused his anger lately so he would be glad to even the playing field.
Obama certainly had NO ROOTS in “The Greatest Generation”!
