State Representative Robin "Popcorn Balls" Von is claiming that he received this letter in the mail:
If this is real, it is in very poor showing. There should be no need for violence when we have not exhausted all of the nonviolent means.
James Wigderson, who considers himself to be a professional writer, jumped on this, blaming the letter on the "peaceful left." Unfortunately, Wiggy follows his usual pattern of making things up out of thin air, provides no evidence that the letter came from a lefty.
Perhaps Wiggy didn't want to tell his readers that the so-called Right to Work bill isn't popular with Republicans or Democrats. After all, why shock them out of the repetitive lies of the right wing echo chamber he is part of.
While there are an increasing number of veterans that are on the left, especially as they realize that it is the Republicans that are screwing them over by cutting and denying their benefits. But somehow, I just don't see a group of former SEALS or Rangers turning liberal.
Also, the horrific spelling is more reminiscent of the signs held up at Tea Party rallies than anything a thinking person would create.
But hey, I could be wrong. Perhaps Wiggy is aware that is was signed by Soul Man Sam the former SEAL. Or perhaps by Hippie Harry the former Ranger.
Or it could be maybe, just maybe, Wiggy is making things up again because he's got nothing else to go on.

That looks like James O'Keefe's handwriting.
ReplyDeleteOr Robert Durst
ReplyDeleteOdd that the writer was smart enough to pass the stringent Navy Seal intelligence qualifications but doesn't possess fifth-grade grammar skills. This is probably a hoax, or, somebody's ex-husband wants to remind Vos that breaking up marriages is not very Christian.
ReplyDeleteI realize that it's been said "when you bring up Hitler or the Nazi's, you've already lost the argument", but I'm not so sure we can cover our eyes to the comparisons any longer. Didn't the Nazi's trump up shit similar to this to demonize Jews?
ReplyDeletevos is a total loser
ReplyDeleteActually, it looks like vos's handwriting
ReplyDeleteI am sure Barack Obama gets a few hundred a day like this from the hate-right, maybe they can match up the handwriting from this garbage to one of those juvenile scrawls
ReplyDeleteIt had to have been written by the same person that threatened Walkers Wife. Even though NO records or police reports exist to substantiate His claim, I blame That person.
ReplyDeleteSounds as legit as that box of bullets that was left on the ground near the Capitol during the Act 10 debate, and that pebble from a "union thug" that came up from the road and cracked Dan Kapanke's windshield.
ReplyDeleteThen again, Robbin' Vos is likely in a good mood as the celebration of the Crucifixion is the GOP's favorite holiday.

ReplyDeletePolitical stunt fabricated to enrage the low information base. Nothing more.
ReplyDeleteFor all the reasons listed above (navy seal/4th grade grammar, language, vocabulary, mailed from Milwaukee....)
If this were truly a credible threat (Nas's phrase of late), the police and FBI would have been contacted. Charlie, Vos and crew would not be commenting upon it while an investagtion was ongoing.
Instead, some bozo wrote a crappy letter and the boys shriek panic and run with it, on the air, in the news.
Hasn't anyone on the red state side given this a nano-second of critical thought?
CJ: "critical thought?" They actually banned that shit in Texas, and we are well on the way to banning it here. You can't think critically and not gag on what The Party is laying down. I'm puking all the time these days.
DeleteCJ, Dice, and all the folks CJ cited above have pegged it. Yeah, this reeks of a "Poland invaded Germany / Reichstag fire"-style false flag stunt. Remember Scott Walker's admission to the disguised-reporter-caller that he'd thought of planting violence-provocateurs among the Act 10 protesters around the Capitol? Here's just another way to paint the opposition as violent — and pre-emptively justify violence against them.
DeleteInterestingly, if you google anything about this, nothing turns up.
