A NEW LEFTIST RECORD… 18 WI Republicans Receive Death Threats This Week

This has got to be a new record.
18 Wisconsin Republicans received death threats in one week!

Not only are the “tolerant” leftists calling for the death of Governor Scott Walker.
Not only are they sending Republicans senators death threats by email.
They’re slipping death threats under their doors.

So much for the whole new civility business…
18 Wisconsin Republicans have complained of receiving death threats this week following their vote to limit union powers.
The Wausau Daily Herald reported:

State Sens. Joe Leibham and Glenn Grothman said they are among as many as 18 Republican senators who received a death threat following their votes to eliminate most collective bargaining powers for public workers.

The threat was sent in an e-mail late Wednesday with the subject, “Death threat!!!! Bomb!!!!” according to a copy of the letter released by Grothman’s office. The e-mail also was addressed to Sen. Pam Galloway, R-Wausau.

Grothman, R-West Bend, said the e-mail is the latest example of “a new height in incivility.” He said in recent weeks he has received obscene phone calls at all hours of the night, been jostled at the Capitol and has been shouted down during interviews.

“This is another example of the anger which is being spewed by the government unions,” Grothman said. “This has been all about intimidating … Republican legislators into bowing to the public unions, and it has only steeled our resolve.”

Grothman said he is hesitant to completely disregard the threat given the volatile atmosphere in Madison. A note shoved under his door Wednesday night said, “The only good Republican is a dead Republican.”

Of course, the fact that the violent left is sending death threats surprises no one.

Nah, exposure. Identification. That, and a right-to-work law is all we need to deal with them.

“collective bargaining powers”

I commend Wassau Daily Herald for using the correct term for collective bargaining.

The State of Wisconsin Attorney General needs to track down the people behind these threats and treat them like the terrorists that they are! Making a death threat to a government official is a crime. Doing so to attempt to secure or prevent a particular vote is terrorism. Why aren’t these people in Guantanamo already?

Shocking, but no surprise. The racist, intolerant left, liberals, Demokkkrats have long been known for their hate. One could only hope that one of these days, some of these lefty wackos will look into the mirror and realize that their false manlove for their Obama-idol has turned them into a monster.

Don’t hold your breath, though. With hatred comes ignorance and stupidity.

Exactly! So where is Big Sis. She was so terribly concerned about domestic terrorism and here’s one of the finest examples I’ve seen in my rather long lifetime right in front of her face with apparently nothing being done.

J, seriously?

Jeez, this is just as nutty as over here. A couple of years ago we had a government made up of the right-wing Freedom Party and the conservative People’s Party. A democratic decision.

As a result, there were weekly protests, organized by the left and the EU dropped sanctions on us. They also considered sending observers for the next election and, what I’m not sure about now is whether they actually sent them or not. And there was an investigation by the EU.

And we’re still in the EU. Why? No idea. Because of lying politicians, etc, I guess.

Funny how the US is becoming more EU-ified every day.

Maybe it’s time to recall Democrat Bill Clintons’ little lip-chewing contrite speech to shattered Tutsi Rwandans about the evil of government-sponsored demonization of opposition and how “we all need to commit ourselves to not allowing that ever to happen again.” CO-president Hillary was standing next to him.

Excerpts: President Bill Clinton’s Remarks to the People of Rwanda (March 25, 1998)

“…4 years ago in this beautiful, green, lovely land, a clear and conscious decision was made by those then in power that the peoples of this country would not live side by side in peace.

The Government-led effort to exterminate Rwanda’s Tutsi and moderate Hutus … the killers … armed mostly with machetes and clubs …It is important that the world know that these killings were not spontaneous or accidental …These events grew from a policy aimed at the systematic destruction of a people. The ground for violence was carefully prepared, the airwaves poisoned with hate … scapegoats … denying their humanity … to make it easy for otherwise reluctant people to participate in wholesale slaughter.

We owe to those who died and to those who survived … we owe to all the peoples of the world who are at risk because each bloodletting hastens the next as the value of human life is degraded and violence becomes tolerated, the unimaginable becomes more conceivable.”

Remind people that the Hutus schemed to slaughter Tustus expressly to derail a POWER-SHARING PEACE AGREEMENT between moderate Hutus and Tutsis. It wasn’t “just because they don’t get along.” There was a very clear POLITICAL goal to the genocide. Just more extreme than usual. Ethnic cleansing is POLITICALLY motivated – remove, chase out opposition.
Yes, these are extreme examples, but they are on a the same line along a spectrum of acceptance of lawlessness as means to gain or maintain power.

Any dimwit who sends a death threat through email deserves to have said email immediately traced. This person should be tracked like the dog they are; any personal computer equipment used in sending the emails should be confiscated – never to be returned. The emailer should be tried on all possible applicable charges and all guilty verdicts should result in jail sentences that run consecutively – never concurrently.

Why does this surprise any of us? We know the left is slimy and will do everything to keep the $$$ rolling upstream in their dirty little pockets. When it’s finally taken away, they retreat to what they know: threats, yelling, tantrums, chaos, and backhandedness.. Where is the Main Street Media? Where are you losers?…also in the pockets of the DumoKrats?
Thank God for a stand up Governor and Repubican congress in WI that are brave enough to stand up to bullies..

The pathetic thing is, Africans have seen this and experienced it so they are much more cautious than the pampered and indulged Democrats who have never been without copious security and stability, and blithely talk revolution in their code word, “Change” without any clue as to what real violence is and how easily it gets out of control.

THe virtual reality of movies, TV and the media has given people a false sense that catastophes can be ridden like surf boards on a wave, no pain, no hunger, no terror. Gah!!

Today on Milwaukee, WI Charlie Sykes radio show – WTMJ AM – Charlie spoke with Senate Majority leader Scott Fitzgerald and asked him if the rumors were true that he had advised Republicans to not come to the State Capitol (and their staffs BTW) today because of these threats. He said the building is unsafe for GOP legislators and staff.

Our wonderful Senate Majority leader said “Yes, it’s true” and went on to explain the way many Republican legislators are changing their lives – and the lives of their spouses and children – due to the many violent threats that violate federal law that says it is a federal case to “intimidate an elected official concerning a vote they are to make”.

This should be the number one story one every mainstream media outlet today but it never will be.

If the Wisconsin narrative teaches us nothing else – the takeaway is that the fix is in with the mainstream (or as Sarah calls it – lamestream) media.

We need to get to the social networks and get a whole lot more organized than we think we are by reading blogs that reinforce our values –

there really and truly is anarchy, police insurrection and all the elements of a military coup happening in Madison, WI.

Donein50,
If “the majority of normal left of center dems are tolerant,” then they should start apologizing for all the vile lies they spread about the Tea Parties and about conservatives generally, and acknowledge the indisputable truth that there is vastly more venom and violence on the left side of the spectrum. They need to admit that it was despicable to blame conservatives or Sarah Palin for what Jared Loughner did, and that all their nattering about “civility” was just a cynical ploy to silence conservatives.

The “normal left of center dems” who dominate the mass media can start the soul-searching.

Until I hear Democrats apologizing for their slander of conservatives, and publicly condemning the greedy lawlessness of the unions, I won’t believe your special pleading about the “tolerance” of the left.
