PHOENIX - A man accused of threatening to kidnap and kill a United States senator and his family has been indicted on federal charges in Arizona.

The indictment filed Oct. 9 against James Dean Blevins doesn't fully identify the victim and instead refers to him as "United States Senator J.F."

The democrats intimidating Cruz and his wife while they were eating out should have been arrested too.

We all need to take a deep breath, get real, and start applying the laws we have on the books to these thugs.

The guy is a nut. He referenced interfering with Trump’s selection of Kavanaugh, but why would he even make the threat before anyone knew how he was going to vote? Now he’s going to do time for no reason whatsoever. Then again, crazy people by definition don’t think these things through - not that threats of violence are ok anyway.

Thirsting for vengence can make people stupid. We have to accept that no mortal can make all wrongs right. We should do what we can and trust God to sort it out in the end. I reckon that one reason the Left has so many more unhinged vengence nuts is because they trust a crack pot ideology about bringing utopia to Earth over God

Yes, and this nut undercuts the - truthful - “leftist mob” point we’ve been making lately.

And he terrorizes both a legitimately elected representative of the people, who was within the rights and responsibilities of his office when he acted how he did - regardless of how much it annoyed us at the time. (For whatever reason, it all worked out in the end.).

And to threaten a man’s FAMILY? Fry ‘em!

Personal attack from anyone excusing threats of kidnapping a family will not be tolerated.

What if they, say, harass a pol in a restaurant to the point the pol feared for his or her safety so then left?

I’d say that harassing person should do time as well. There’s a fine line here. One person threatened to harm someone else. Another did verbally harm someone else. Was the threat real? I guess the court thought so.

Indeed. It even makes people call Jeff Sessions a tool of the left.

OK, how about spineless? Compromised? Coward? What would you call him? Is he a tool of the right?

Threatening, telegraphing your intention to assassinate a political enemy is a sure was to end up in prison. It also will surely prevent your success in the plan.

And to show how such a thing is pure foolishness, assassinations and attempts at assassinations make heroes and martyrs of your targets and tend to strengthen the resolve of your enemy.
