Threats Linked To Health Votes Prompt Security At least 10 Dems receive threats; gas line cut at Perriello brother's home. At least 10 House Democrats are receiving access to increased security after receiving threats linked to their votes on the health care overhaul bill signed into law on Tuesday.

House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer said at a Capitol Hill press conference that he is concerned by a rash of at least four incidents of vandalism targeting lawmakers who voted to approve the legislation, which did not receive any Republican votes.

Concern about possible violence escalated Wednesday after a severed gas line at the home of a Democratic lawmaker's brother was discovered.

When terrorists attack us, it's our own fault, right?
By the same rule, when some nutcases attack some dem property (if it's even true) then whose fault would that be?

...

Wrong! It's Bush's fault.

These bastard liars are really starting to piss me off!!!

Someone else posted that we need to bring them down by boycotting their sponsors, a network at a time and a few sponsors at a time, until they either get the message or go broke.

I don't know if we can get this done, but I'm willing to try. Do you know of any organized attempts to do this?

Paging the Reichstag fire department...

I think they should be more concerned about the threats they don’t get.

[Gadsden1st]

Should a reasonable person ever be pushed to the point that they thought an act of violence was necessary to save the Republic, I would think the act would be much more decisive than a brick through a window or an attack on a recreational cooking device.

Gee, I had a “severed gas line” in my immediate neighborhood. I’m anti-Obamacare, does this mean that my life has been threatened by dimocRATS?

[FrankR]

Now it occurs to me that people in government who are suseptible to receiving threatening phone calls would either have that call on tape, or, have the means to TRACE THAT CALL.

Are they trying to tell us they are just getting random, untraceable phone threats?

Where's the FBI? Where's the Secret Service?

Where's the effing PROOF that any of these reported threats, racist slurs, etc., have even happened.

Dear democrats...

WALK YOUR TALK, OR SHUT UP!

OMG! Sarah said "AIM"!!! That means Tea Party extremists should grab up a gun and run out and shoot democrat politicians dead!!!!!!!!!

/heavy HEAVY sarcasm

[zerosix]

What about the real violence by the left??????

SEIU thug bites off tip black man's finger in St. Louis.

Where's the media on this felonious assault in St. Louis by Obamacare leftist thugs? Why aren't they bringing attention for actual violence against law-abiding people, innocently engaged in peaceful dissent?

Of course, I, as well as many other FReepers know the answers but why don't we hit them all at once for ignoring this and so many more violent actions (instead of the claims of naughty words, pretense of spitting, etc. blown all out of proportion?

I don't necessarily mean "hitting" PMS suffering, Shep but their networks (beginning with FOX for giving us the disgusting "other side of the news" with the likes of Shep Smith and Jerry Rivers a/k/a Geraldo Rivera) and many other insignificant media whores.
