You're damn right I advocate deadly force."; Indiana Deputy Attorney General Jeffrey Cox. Advocating a Kent State kind of solution to demonstrators in Wisconsin. He has, thankfully, been fired....

Kennedy 0 #2 February 24, 2011 "Get in their faces." Crosshairs "Time to get bloody." Yep, politicians have been known to say some pretty stupid things. I hope he was talking about real thugs posing imminent death or GBH and merely used a piss poor choice ofnwords. If he meant the gimme gimme protesters in the streets making comments not specific to physical harm, he's adult who should never have been deputy AG. Either way, don't let the door hit you in the ass... On an unrelated note, why is it you only post stupidity coming from republicans, when democrats are guilty of the same stupidity? Does only one side disgust you? Are you reading sources so biased only one side's downfalls are reported?

rhaig 0 #4 February 24, 2011 what threats precipitated these remarks? Most states define what kind of a physical threat allows response with force (deadly or otherwise depending on the threat) In TX, that's sec 9 of the penal code. If this was street protesters carrying signs and shouting, I don't think that would meet any state's response with force criteria.-- Rob Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wmw999 2,584 #11 February 25, 2011 It's scientifically calculated. He used a Craftsman model 1019 Laboratory Edition Signature Series torque wrench. The kind used by Caltech high energy physicists. And NASA engineers. And how can he be sure THAT's accurate? Because a split second before he used the torque wrench was applied to the faucet handle, it was calibrated by top members of the state AND federal Department of Weights and Measures... to be dead on balls accurate!

I don't have a political party. I despise idiocy, hypocrasy, incompetence, and corruption at all levels and from all sides. My problem is that kallend refuses to state his views on any issue not related to global warming. Then he gets pissy when others infer his position based on a clear pattern of prior posts. Even in this thread he tries to dance around the fact that he only seems to post about, or get upset about, misdeeds of republicans even when democrats are guilty of equal actions. If he could admit that he hates one party and excuses the other, I wouldn't worry about him anymore than others with that viewpoint. But he acts like he is above it all while lying in the gutter. QuoteWhat I don't understand is all you guys adhering strictly to one party or another as if there are no good ideas coming from your opposition. Straight-party voting----idiots. I agree. Good and bad ideas can come from both parties. There is also more overlap then either side wants to admit. My biggest problem with both parties tight now is that they think their good ideas should be implemented regardless of what the constitution says and regardless of what people want. I happen to supper limited federal government. Neither republicans nor democrats have a lot to say about that right now, except maybe some of the fresh faces associated with the tea party. Of course to many just wan to take advantage of the movement rather than support any of its goals.witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep, you're pretty clear on that one. So tell us where you stand on individual gun rights. And since you're going to use the word "loonies," tell us how you define that word.
