Anonymous threat to Texas school: "bleeding heart liberals" lack discipline
Hmm, the first right-wing terrorist threat of the year? CNN reports: "Security at Texas school district beefed up after another threat":

The letter, riddled with profanity and misspellings, demands that Bay City schools enforce quiet in their classrooms and stiffen detention and suspension policies. The author, who claims to be facing a terminal illness, said his or her child was attacked after telling "some kidds to shut up in class one day."

"You (expletive) bleeding heart Liberals have let the pice of (expletive) kidds run your schools. Now here are my rules. Break one and see what happens," reads the letter, received December 28.

The writer threatens to kill a random student if administrators ignore the demands, because Brown's own children "will be well garded by then."

"Your lack of student control has hurt my child and I am termanal and will only be with them for 18 months," the letter continues. "School will not be a nightmare for them."

The handwritten letter had a Bay City postmark, but a fictitious return address, Brown said. The letter has been turned over to state police in Houston, who are assisting in the investigation, along with an FBI agent, he said.


Also, many students received an anonymous text message threat of a similar nature:

Almost half of the students in Bay City schools have been out of classes since Tuesday, a day after officials disclosed an anonymous letter writer threatened to kill students unless "bleeding heart liberals" cracked down on discipline.

Superintendent Keith Brown told reporters he's hopeful police will be able to trace the source of a text message sent Wednesday night to many residents of the city 80 miles south of Houston.

The text read, "FWD: Hey! Forward this to everyone, (that letter)...1 rule broken, two girls die at the jr. high and 2 from high school, dnt go! The school will be on lockdown."


Yikes.

5. "School will not be a nightmare for" my children
And the way to ensure that is to kill some random classmates of your kids. Church of Redemptive Violence dogma at its finest! I have to say that the creative ways in which violence becomes the solution to everything is inspiring.

6. Right, it's all the Liberals' fault.
We're the ones fighting every anti-bullying measure and the ones who say kids should just suck it up and learn to live with it right? :sarcasm: :crazy::crazy:

8. Sounds like the Knoxville church shooter, kill libs because "his food stamps were being cut"...
Motivations

Adkisson, a former private in the United States Army from 1974 to 1977, says that he was motivated by hatred of Democrats, liberals, African Americans and homosexuals.<2><9><10> According to a sworn affidavit by one of the officers who interviewed Adkisson on July 27, 2008:<3>
“ During the interview Adkisson stated that he had targeted the church because of its liberal teachings and his belief that all liberals should be killed because they were ruining the country, and that he felt that the Democrats had tied his country's hands in the war on terror and they had ruined every institution in America with the aid of major media outlets. Adkisson made statements that because he could not get to the leaders of the liberal movement that he would then target those that had voted them into office. Adkisson stated that he had held these beliefs for about the last ten years. ”

Additionally, one of Adkisson's former wives had been a member (in the 1990s) of the church where the attack occurred.<11>

Adkisson's manifesto<12> also cited the inability to find a job, and that his food stamps were being cut. His manifesto stated that he intended to keep shooting until police arrived and expected to be killed by police. Adkisson had a waist satchel with more ammunition, totaling 76 shells of #4 shot.

The following books were found in Adkisson's home during a police search:<10>

* Liberalism is a Mental Disorder by radio talk show host Michael Savage
* Let Freedom Ring: Winning the War of Liberty over Liberalism by talk show host Sean Hannity
* The O'Reilly Factor: The Good, the Bad, and the Completely Ridiculous in American Life by television talk show host Bill O'Reilly

In his manifesto, Adkisson also included the Democratic members of the House and Senate,<12> and the 100 People Who Are Screwing Up America <12> of Bernard Goldberg in his list of wished-for targets.
