Did This ACLU Leader Just Say He Would Shoot Trump Voters?
The Federalist ^ | 12-11-15

Posted on 12/11/2015 8:14:16 AM PST by markomalley

An American Civil Liberties Union leader has doubled down after catching heat for his comments about Donald Trump.

Loring Wirbel, board member of the American Civil Liberties Union's Colorado chapter and co-chair of the ACLU's Colorado Springs chapter, allegedly said that he would shoot Trump supporters before they get a chance to vote for him.

Daniel Cole, executive director at the El Paso County Republican Party, said that he captured screen shots of Wirbel's remarks, which he allegedly posted to Facebook on December 7.

This is a group that had a pedophine as their head person ... remember that?

Here’s what the thug is REALLY saying: “We need some muscle over here”...

He’s a lowlife thug faking being a victim... Hitler was a thug - this guy’s a thug...

I thought what he said was others should shoot Trump voters.

My first reaction is to call for this gentleman’s resignation. But that would be folly, why get rid of somebody who epitomizes and vocalizes the true nature, moral and ethical underpinnings of his organization. The ACLU is repugnant in almost every endeavor they undertake but Wirbel’s honesty should be applauded and publicized.

No, that would be a violation of his first amendment rights.

Hmm...threaten to shoot somebody, cover up the evidence, deny it stoutly...fine example of our legal community, isn't he? Nevertheless, I'm glad it's out in the open at least.

I don't think Wirbel has either intention or capacity to shoot anyone personally. He'd love to see somebody else do it, though, and blame the victim.

It would seem that the Lefty Loonies have officially...and for the world to see...verified, codified and accepted Godwin’s Law as their very own.

it is a terroristic threat, which should be used to deny him the ability to own and buy guns if there was any consistency in how laws are applied.

So is this the rhetoric rising to violence the attorney general warned us she would prosecute?

If you hear or see something, say something.

Well, someone is saying something.

What are the Authorities going to do about it?
