Today...(yesterday for when you read this) she posted this.
...threats of terrorism — “I’m not living without guns; it’s just that simple. The AR-15 is by far the most popular gun in America, by far. . . . If you’re talking about taking people’s guns from them, there’s going to be a lot of violence.” "If you pass gun safety laws there will be a Civil War." "If my opponent wins, my followers should shoot her." — are illegal. It’s still illegal terrorism if you say that some third person will commit the violence It’s still illegal terrorism if the threat is conditional (we’ll shoot you and declare Civil War if you pass those laws). As long as you have the intent to cause fear (and, really, what else is the point of these statements), it’s illegal terrorism.
Here's the link to her blog in full. Makes you think. Makes me mad.
Incidentally, she's an attorney.
Our country is a mess these days. Are we fighting and re-fighting the civil war? Maybe.
ReplyDeleteTo consider a war is at hand, I hope not. But whatever is happening, our children and others are dying from mass shooting. Not to mention politics! Balance is needed again, which is what the constitution hoped to establish.
