Unrest over sweeping federal health care legislation has turned to vandalism and threats, with bricks hurled through Democrats' windows, a propane line cut at the home of a congressman's brother and menacing phone messages left for lawmakers who supported the bill.

1. A friend told me Steve Kagen's office was covered with post-it notes.
Post-It notes all over the windows and doors. :eyes:
When the revolution comes, it's peaceful but expensive.
