Justice Department Investigates Death Threats against Senators


Posted: Mar 10, 2011

Don't even try to tell me this is acceptable behavior or that the everyday people of Wisconsin support this. What I see are a lot of angry young white men with backpacks storming the public building and then being dragged out of the building by the police.  These people are frightening.

Since these aren't Erik Holder's "people," will he allow these threats to continue or we will see some arrests?

Can you just imagine the outrage if these protesters had been part of the "radical" Tea Party? ROFL.

Justice Department Investigates Death Threats against Senators
By Ann-Elise Henzl
March 10, 2011 | WUWM | Milwaukee, WI



The Wisconsin Department of Justice is investigating an e-mail, which threatens the lives of some Republican state senators.

DOJ spokesman William Cosh says the Division of Criminal Investigation is investigating one e-mail and other threats from several sources. He would not go into specifics.

A spokesman for Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald says two death threat e-mails were sent to his office Wednesday night, and have been forwarded to Capitol Police.

The e-mail to Fitzgerald says he and his “Republican dictators'' must die, because of their actions “today and in the past couple of weeks.''

The person who sent the email was presumably referring to GOP senators who, in a surprise move Wednesday night, passed a bill removing most public employees' collective bargaining rights.

it is backed by democratic unions and the politicians the unions own. This would only be unacceptable if conservative "tea-baggers" were doing it.

Agree. These hypocrites will always find their own excuse, - yet lie about the other side.nm

Pointing fingers at the other guy and not being open to fixing the issue at hand. They could have stayed and debated and looked for more concessions. They forced this confrontation so the Dems could run on the \"union busting Republicans\" in 2012. All they are succeeding in doing is showing unions for they are...greedy and willing to step over the other workers in Wisconsin to get what THEY want.

No matter how hard they try, the unions are looking ugly in this to average Joe in Wisconsin who doesn\'t have two dimes to rub together and wondering why the union isn\'t going to be happy until they get one of those dimes or both of them. My heart goes out to THOSE folks, not the union members. All I see is don\'t touch MINE and greed greed greed.

Guess the rich don\'t have the market cornered on getting what they want off the backs of the common people, eh????

If this is how the "average" citizen in Wisconsin thinks, then yes, we are a doomed nation. But remember, they were protesting for the children last week. 


Some people need to take a breath and tone it down. They don't remember what Barry said in Tuscon about civility? Oh, never mind. I forgot he also said, "If they bring a knife to a fight, we bring a gun."


So, who are they going to blame for these violent threats? Sarah Palin? Michelle Bachmann? I heard Michael Moore and Jessie Jackson calling for a "revolt." Just saying.

Threatening Letter Sent to WI Republican Senators: “You Will Be Killed and Your Families Will Also Be Killed”

The death threats have been pouring in to Gov. Scott Walker in Wisconsin, and now Truth About Bills has found a threatening letter to Wisconsin Republican Senators. ( via 620 WTMJ )





On March 9th 2011 this letter containing death threats was sent from a group of people to the Republican Wisconsin Senators, after passing a bill to end union bargaining rights on Wednesday night. At this time the sender has been kept anonymous pending further police investigation.

Subject: Atten: Death threat!!!! Bomb!!!!


Please put your things in order because you will be killed and your familes
will also be killed due to your actions in the last 8 weeks. Please explain
to them that this is because if we get rid of you and your families then it
will save the rights of 300,000 people and also be able to close the deficit
that you have created. I hope you have a good time in hell. Read below for
more information on possible scenarios in which you will die.


WE want to make this perfectly clear. Because of your actions today and in
the past couple of weeks I and the group of people that are working with me
have decided that we’ve had enough. We feel that you and the people that
support the dictator have to die. We have tried many other ways of dealing
with your corruption but you have taken things too far and we will not stand
for it any longer. So, this is how it’s going to happen: I as well as many
others know where you and your family live, it’s a matter of public records.
We have all planned to assult you by arriving at your house and putting a
nice little bullet in your head. However, we decided that we wouldn’t leave
it there. We also have decided that this may not be enough to send the
message to you since you are so “high” on Koch and have decided that you are
now going to single handedly make this a dictatorship instead of a
demorcratic process. So we have also built several bombs that we have placed
in various locations around the areas in which we know that you frequent.
This includes, your house, your car, the state capitol, and well I won’t
tell you all of them because that’s just no fun. Since we know that you are
not smart enough to figure out why this is happening to you we have decided
to make it perfectly clear to you. If you and your goonies feel that it’s
necessary to strip the rights of 300,000 people and ruin their lives, making
them unable to feed, clothe, and provide the necessities to their families
and themselves then We Will “get rid of” (in which I mean kill) you. Please
understand that this does not include the heroic Rep. Senator that risked
everything to go aganist what you and your goonies wanted him to do. We feel
that it’s worth our lives to do this, because we would be saving the lives
of 300,000 people. Please make your peace with God as soon as possible and
say goodbye to your loved ones we will not wait any longer. YOU WILL DIE!!!!”
