Nancy Pelosi's Republican opponent.....Send Nancy a Bomb

[Ichingcarpenter]

Oh, sure, it's all tongue in cheek. He's talking about a money bomb for himself, not a real birthday bomb for Nancy Pelosi. Ha ha ha. I can't imagine why anyone would think he wants people to send her a bomb and end her career or even her life.

Tell me these aren't dog whistle calls to the unhinged to inflict violence on Nancy Pelosi.

2. Where are the secret service

this crap was not allowed during bush's reign. If anybody so much as looked mean at him they were arrested. I think we need to get rid of the present force at the secret service and get men and women who know how to do their job. PROTECT THE PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS. WHAT ARE THEY PAID FOR.

Remember when they went into a school, intimated a child who had on a Tshirt saying bush is a terroist. They didn't even have his parents present. And were going to arrest him. But you have a grown man who RUNS a blog and should know better tell his readers to get a gun and shoot the president. And the secret service say they will look into it. If that was bush don't you think they guy would be in jail in an undisclosed location and no one even having access to them.

4. When the chimp ruled, folks were kicked out of events for anti war T-shirts.

Protesters were herded into "free speech zones", some of which were cages.

Teabaqgers are allowed to verbally abuse, threaten, and spit on legislators. (When they aren't busy gargling each others scrotums)

3. Which Federal code would be most applicable

Would it be 18 USC 41 § 871 - Threats against President and successors to the Presidency as she's third in line for the office after the President and Vice President?

Or would it be 18 USC 115 § 2385. Advocating overthrow of Government?

Or 18 USC 41 § 876. Mailing threatening communications?

5. What is with you guys posting threats in your subject line?

This is the 5th time I've seen this on DU in the past 24 hours.

6. I didn't post a threat...

I exposed a threat.

geez........get a grip Mr. EDWARDs avatar.

7. I believe the government is still too busy investigating the left.

They let the right wingers slide for political reasons, same as with the interruptions in the House when the bill was debated.

Don't want to antagonize the right, don't care about the left because we have nowhere else to go.

8. It's a campaign term

Bombing is a common term, at least in the blogosphere, where people donate lots of cash at a designated time. It used to be money bomb, but eventually just became bomb. I honestly didn't even think about the violent connotations until seeing commentary here on DU. I guess I got too used to seeing the term in relation to campaign donations.

As for this, I'm all for it. Speaker Pelosi is quite safe here in San Francisco. The more cash Republicans want to waste, the better everyone is.
