billvon 3,120 #3 April 8, 2010 >and they called the police to bust these reporters and falsely accuse > them of what i consider a felony act. That's not a felony. These would be better examples of felonies: ======================= Serial death threats against Senator end with arrest of suspect April 7, 3:54 Charles Alan Wilson, of Selah, Washington, was arrested yesterday and charged with threatening a federal official, according to a report submitted to the National Association of Chiefs of Police. The 64-year old Wilson was arrested by Federal Bureau of Investigation agents and local law enforcement officers at his home in Selah, near Yakima, Washington. Wilson became the subject of a federal investigation after a series of threatening phone calls to the office of Washington's U.S. Senator Patty Murray. ====================== Democrats fear for their families The threats against members of Congress who voted for health care reform have turned from a nuisance to a serious law enforcement issue, increasing security concerns as lawmakers prepare to head home for spring recess. . . . The gas lines were cut at the house of Virginia Democratic Rep. Thomas Perriello’s brother, near Charlottesville, Va., prompting an FBI investigation. Local police are making routine checks of the home. A tea party activist from southern Virginia posted online the address of Perriello’s brother, thinking it was the lawmaker’s. . . . A brick was thrown through the window of the Democratic Party’s Cincinnati office. And Rep. Bart Stupak (D-Mich.), who negotiated the breakthrough on abortion language in the health care bill, has received numerous death threats and faxes with violent images at his office. ==================== Neither eggs nor bricks, death threats or cutting gas lines are remotely acceptable, of course, although eggs are a little less lethal.

CanuckInUSA 0 #4 April 8, 2010 If you ever catch me standing on the side of a road with a sign supporting some politician (regardless of whether or not I am carrying eggs in my hands), please just shoot me on the spot.

davjohns 1 #5 April 8, 2010 Not sure about the felony thing. Generally not. But that looked like a nice, custom paint job on the bus. Ever see what raw egg does to car paint? Could go over $1,000. That would be a felony.I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet.. But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It could cover the air conditioning compressor and cause a very costly and uncomfortable problem with the climate control! That's _much_ worse than threatening to kill someone's children.

Although, now that you mention it, I have had eggs at a certain DZ that could be considered deadly weapons. Even at that, I'm fairly certain the reason the "flying burrito" made the news is it's NOT normally considered a deadly weapon worthy of felony charges. An egg would be even less so, especially when tossed at a bus. A person would have to be pretty insane to think anyone inside the bus was actually in danger from the egg being tossed at it.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy9o8 2 #13 April 8, 2010 I almost started a parody counter-thread with the following, but it's really not worth it. Quote http://thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/04/07/man-arrested-in-threat-against-pelosi/ Man Arrested in Threat Against Pelosi Federal agents arrested a San Francisco man on Wednesday in connection with threats against the House speaker, Nancy Pelosi, over her role in winning adoption of landmark health care legislation, officials said. Blah, blah, blah....so it goes...etc. So there are plenty of assholes on both sides behaving like assholes, and there are also some whack jobs who are egged on (oops! a pun!) by the assholes. Maybe we should stop pretending like the other other team has a corner on the market on assholes. Next time someone shouts, "Hey asshole!", we should ALL reply, "What??" Or as Willie Horton said, can't we all just get along? Wait, that wasn't Willie Horton. Sorry, wrong poster child Scary Negro. It was that other one.
