Death threats lead to Newtown church evacuation during Mass.


Posted: Dec 16, 2012

Grieving kids and parents witnessed another intimidating display of assault weapons en masse as law enforcement officers hastily evacuated 400 of them during a Sunday morning celebration of Mass, while social media abusers played out their various psychoses online.  God help us all if any of these monsters get their hands on more weapons.

Interesting development. Might be useful to remember that violence - is actually on the decline nationally. nm

ultimately, fortunately, this was not a violent act. It was just a stupid act.

Now, now. Violent crime rates have been declining across - the nation for the past several years.

That isn't meant to suggest these events are okay. Just to add perspective.

Media Ignores Dozens of Post-Debate Death Threats Against Romney --by Nick Nolte Man alive, can you imagine the media reaction if in 2008 Obama was this close to winning the presidency and dozens of citizens made public death threats against him?

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 "rad ...

Electoral College Death Threats Won’t Be The Last Bid To Overturn The ElectionDec 16, 2016
The Electoral College is due to meet Monday, when the electors chosen on Nov. 8 will establish Donald Trump as the winner. Then Democrats’ efforts to steal the election will finally come to an end — right? Don’t bet on it. So bitter are American liberals that they may go down as the sorest losers since the invention of democracy. They’re apt to try anything to overturn voters’ decision.

Gabby Giffords went to Newtown to visit with families of shooting victims, originally a low-key event that did not involve the press.  Despite advance reports of her visit, GOP CN State Representative Debra Lee Hovey went on a FB rant, decrying the "pure political motives" behind her CN trip and alleged lack of prior notice of the visit.  After the ensuing uproar over her cringe-worthy statements, Hovey then had the gall to claim in a hasty apology that HER motives had nothing to do wi ...

A Christmas Poem For The Newtown Angels.Dec 20, 2012
Twas' 11 days before Christmas, around 9:38, when 26 beautiful children stormed through heaven's gate. Their smiles were contagious, their laughter filled the air. They could hardly believe all the beauty they saw there. They were filled with such joy; they didn't know what to say. They remembered nothing of what had happened earlier that day. “Where are we?" asked a little girl, as quiet as a mouse. “This is heaven" declared a small boy. "We’re spending Christma ...

Times: "Gun control advocates contend that semiautomatic weapons like the AR-15, the civilian version of the military’s M-16 and M-4, are a logical choice for anyone whose goal is to kill a lot of people in a short time because of their ability to rapidly fire multiple high-velocity rounds. “The people we’re talking about, once they get into ‘I want to kill a lot of people,’ it’s not a leap for them to ...

Mass Exodus Of PhysiciansJun 26, 2016
This article on the mass exodus of physicians post Obamacare is a few years old, but I found the Comments section quite interesting.  Docs describe "feeling like slaves," a new low record of visit time (30 seconds), etc.  With only 1 or 2 exceptions, these docs HATE EHR and the time that it consumes (which is why so many have/are retired/retiring).  They also talk about the onerous regulations that the feds have placed on them, plus the shrinking reimbursements. Not new in genera ...
