The fact that people can’t see that is nothing more than a bias to see liberal views as threats. Not that they are actual threats.
The first is a passive aggressive threat to get with the program or die, the second righteous indignation over that threat. I appreciate the cod psychology lesson tho.

txdot nailed it.

Description of anger versus an angry outburst mixed with racism and violent, penetrative suggestion.

Cunt isn't a particularly nice word but I use it occasionally, along with its inevitable variations. Your compadres use it virtually every time they describe a female elected official.

Thanks for making my point.

What you, lustylad and the author of that opinion piece see as a “threat” is nothing more than advocating for changes to our health care system.

You’ll note that the statements all decried the violence. They just tried to put it in perspective and make an argument for what we can do to help fix the problem.

And now they are called twisted, disgusting, morally depraved and unfit to serve in the US Senate or House of Representatives.

The outrage presented here, either faux or real, has no basis in anything but conservative absurdity.

Advocating change doesn’t (shouldn’t) consist of: Change, my way, or some crazy fucker is gonna shoot you in the street.

You are correct, but that is not what anyone said. They said that is what they feared.

It’s Sacagawea using the age old mafia tactic. Such a beautiful family you’ve got there, it’d be a shame if something happened to them.

Well if you are correct (which I highly doubt) then who exactly are these representatives threatening. All they do is make laws in deliberations with hundreds of other colleagues. They have little ability to threaten anyone.

Again the argument is absurd. Blaming these representatives for their statements decrying violence and trying to put it in context for their constituents is just plain stupid.

Unless those people condoned cowardly gunning down from behind healthcare company executives, who gives a shit what those people said. It's not like damn near everyone isn't annoyed with healthcare company practices whether it's the provider or the patient... damn, some of you folks are so overly dramatic about nothing. LOL

I hold all of our representatives accountable for what comes out of their mouths, don't you? They weren't "decrying the violence". They were making statements justifying the murder even before the POS murderer was caught. That shows how completely morally depraved they are!

How did they justify the murder? Please enlighten us so we can all make our own judgement rather than taking the word from the editorial board at the Wall Street Journal.

The argument that you and the journal seem to be making is that’s it’s bad to advocate for health care reform because someone died. I hate to break it to you but people die every day because they can’t get good affordable healthcare.

Just because someone died from a bullet rather than from denial of care doesn’t make one more immoral than the other.

Maybe the moral high ground you’re occupying isn’t as high as you think.

Holy shit. I don't know how to get through to you. Do you think it would be appropriate to show up at Brian Thompson's funeral and walk around preaching to all of his bereaved friends and relatives about how his murder proves the need for "health care reform"?

It's obvious Liz Warren and Bernie Sanders have no shame. Do you?

We’ll have to agree to disagree on this issue.

From my perspective it seems like nothing more than faux outrage to keep from discussing the actual issue which is an inequitable healthcare system.

When it comes to Democrat Female Elected Officials, I generally use the adjective “stupid” as a prefix to “cunt”.

And that’s precisely why you’re playing a he-man on a whooker board.
