Fox News: Man Arrested Over Death Threat Against Rep. Eric Cantor
Monday, March 29, 2010 | Kristinn

Posted on 03/29/2010 9:21:46 AM PDT by kristinn

Fox News just ran a short story announcing a man was arrested for threatening to kill Rep. Eric Cantor (R-VA)and his family. If I heard correctly, the threat was made in a YouTube video.

Nothing on the wires yet...

Hmmmm, I didn’t know it was illegal to threaten the life of a Republican, or even carry it out. You learn something new every day.

Are we sure it wasn’t just a “random” death threat that happened to hit Cantor?

They’ll say he’s a right wing nut who’s angry with Cantor because he didn’t do enough to stop obamacare.

He is one of my favorite Congressmen. I saw it and I’m betting it is either because he is a GOP or Jewish or both. At the rate we’re going, we’ll never get good, honest folks to run for office. Seems I heard him say he was the only Jewish person in the House of Rep. Probably set some idiot off to get rid of him. :(

I hope they THROW the book at this person and lock ‘em up and throw away the keys.

Stay safe Representative Cantor and your lovely family.

The poor dear must be confused. I’m sure he thought Cantor voted FOR HCR. Only right wing lunatics are violent or hateful against poor socialists that just want to give us the “gift of health care reform”.

There’s just no way he realized that Cantor is a Republican. It just can’t happen!

This was obviously just a stray threat that hit Cantor randomly, probably meant for someone else.

I gotta say, considering Obama the Magnificent (whose intelligence is beyond comprehension by the mere working masses)was to usher in an era of peaceful co-existance, there are many people not getting with the program.

I have never seen such division in America, and terrorists still want to kill everyone in the western world.

"Seems I heard him say he was the only Jewish person in the House of Rep."

No, no. There are many Jews in both the House & the Senate. but, Cantor is the only Jewish Republican in the House.

I'm not sure if there are any Jewish Senators who are Republican. But, none come to mind, if there are.

Come on, the threat was accidental and the person threatened the air, it just happened to land on Eric Cantor.

They’ll figure out some way to say he was a Tea Partier.

He shot a gun at a house. Everyone knows liberals hate guns, so he must have been a Tea Partier. /sarcasm

OK, thanks, I knew Lieberman was in the Senate but I don’t usually even notice or look into that sort of thing. Just heard him mention his faith.

I'm surprised that a leading Jewish Congressman being threatened with murder in the Passover season isn't news anywhere else. I am truly surprised. Really.

Well, he is a Republican so I guess that explains it.

Ofcourse not. The msm will NEVER get their panties in a wad over a certified threat to a Repub.

Notice the massive coverage of the nutcases in Where ever.

Martha took it to a new high with her hysterical breathlessness calling them “Christian” militia people.

Never even a hint about the Islamofscist embeded in the u.S.
