Gee, isn't that too.....bad?

I hear the Founding Fathers threw a few "bricks" of their own.

Does absolutely no good and detracts from the legitimate points we have to make about her very bad ideas.

That would hold true if anyone in DC still had respect for the Constitution and the rule of law.

I disagree. I think it is very good that politicians know if they act outside the law and the constitution they risk hanging from lampposts. A docile electorate has only invited more corruption and outrageous actions by politicians.

There's going to be another civil war in this country.

I just hope I'm dead before it starts.

She threw it through her own window to blame it on people opposed to the health care bill.

I will bet the one who did this is a far left kook fringe type trying to stage an incident that they know the media will blame on the Tea Party.

They had a similar incident in Colorado. When they arrested the perp he was a far leftist activist.

Sounds like something a democrat would do to blame on a Conservative..These morons will do anything to make the other side look bad..
I also heard that there was an opposing group against the Tea Party people..Watch it people they are more than likely hired protesters and Union members..We all know they are savages that will hurt a child if they were in their way..Hey will star something for sure..Savages!!

She and all of the other yes votes better be very afraid to go home. You mess with our health and our families health you should expect the same treatment back!

I agree. While violence is the last option, it is an option. Just ask SEIU.

This may have been a chavez follower or a patriot - doesn't matter.

When will liberty be sufficiently eroded for this option to be used? When 0bama eliminates the supreme court? puts them in jail? When he disbands Congress?

Laugh all you want - but two years ago would you have laughed if I'd said the Federal government would own two of the big three US automakers, and have a majority position in some of the US's largest commercial banks, and own the US's largest insurance company, and be 28 hours away from owning the health care industry and the student loan industry?

Sorry, I think it's time to fight back non-violently

According to the American Prosperity policy dude on C-SPAN this morning, there are some bad apples in every crowd.

People don’t really realize what a fragile thing democracy is. Our founders gave us a constitutional republic founded on some principles of democracy. Anytime the majority goes too far too fast in imposing their will on the minority, violence, on the margin, will increase.

Our country has been through that before. It is just silly to think that human beings have evolved to where men will not resort to violence to oppose tyranny. If the left continues their course blood will come. Liberty will not be surrendered easily.

Actually this move by the left has awakened the sleeping giant. People wanted to flirt with this idea of a cost-free utopia promised by creeping socialism. I think the majority now realize that is just fantasy. It costs too much. Loss of liberty. Loss of our kids futures. Loss of our wealth.

Hopefully the country will change course before too much violence comes about. But who knows? There were a lot of local skirmishes and a lot of violent acts by many groups before the war between the states began. These small acts of violence are warnings that more attention needs to be paid to the workings of the Republic.
