Demonstration Project

More love from my home state:

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!!!!

I realize it's probably a fool's errand to fisk a death threat, but a few observations seem to be in order:

• Regarding the "300,000 people" this brave anonymous terrorist purports to represent, so which is it? Is the goal to protect their rights, or avoid a ruination of their lives, or to actually save their lives? Still, I'm not sure that the just cause goes quite far enough I think if this individual would have managed an additional paragraph or two, he/she/it would be claiming that killing Walker and the Republicans in the Wisconsin State Senate would essentially guarantee eternal salvation for the 300,000 people. He probably shouldn't undersell the potential efficacy of his efforts.
  
• And why leave out the State Assembly? After all, Democratic Assemblyman Gordon Hintz has already made a promise or two along similar lines..
  
• As to the miscreants this avenging angel is addressing, I'm not sure how a group of individuals can "single handedly" do anything, but supporters of the unions have a demonstrated lack of ability to handle numbers, so I suppose we need to let that assertion pass. I would say that killing people by blowing them up is an odd way to adhere to the "democratic process," but as a conservative struggling with nuance has always been problematic for me.
• I am disappointed with the last assertion: "YOU WILL DIE!!!" Anyone who has studied the linguistic traits of the humane left knows that it should be rendered "YOU WILL DIE!!11!! ELEVENTY!!!"
• I would also suggest the decaf.
