Yesterday, ThinkProgress reported that several Democratic offices around the nation had been vandalized in the days surrounding the House health care vote. Vandals have struck the Tuscon office of Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-AZ), the Monroe County Democratic Committee headquarters in upstate New York, Rep. Louise Slaughter’s (D-NY) Niagara Falls office, the Knox County Democratic headquarters in Ohio, and the Sedgwick County Democratic Party headquarters in Wichita, KS. The local Rochester ABC affiliate now has more information on the upstate NY vandalism, including an assassination threat against the children of lawmakers who voted for health reform:
No one was inside when the brick was hurled through the Democratic Patry Headquarters on University Avenue. Attached was a note quoting conservative Barry Goldwater: “Exremism [sic] in defense of liberty is no vice”. [...]
[Rep. Louise] Slaughter has been at the center of the push for reform. Last Thursday she received a chilling recorded message at her campaign office. “Assassinate is the word they used…toward the children of lawmakers who voted yes.”
The FBI is now investigating.
Pictures of the note attached to the brick thrown at the Monroe County Democratic Committee headquarters:
Mike Vanderboegh of Sipsey Street Irregulars is taking credit for inspiring the vandalism, saying that he’s urging people to break Democratic offices’ windows. He insists that he’s not advocating violence. (HT: BruinKid)

Republiscum/conservatards/teabaggers? That’s not nearly dramatic enough. You really need an airplane or a van full of AMFO.
March 23rd, 2010 at 4:53 pmThese people are domestic terrorists and should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law!
March 23rd, 2010 at 4:53 pmLooks like the repugs spelled the note right for a change.
March 23rd, 2010 at 4:54 pmThe teabaggers endorse assassinating the children of democratically elected lawmakers, but are against abortion even in the case of rape or incest. Gotcha.
March 23rd, 2010 at 4:54 pmAnd they think this helps their cause how?

Democracy? Majority Representation?
I guess we need to go back to the drawing board…
March 23rd, 2010 at 4:58 pmThis is how major political parties become marginalized political parties. Neutron Jack Welch of all people was on MSNBC this morning warning that Republicans are going to be in for a surprise if they expect big gains in the November elections. I hate to see the incitement to violence because it is only a matter of time before someone gets killed. The more violent these loons get however the more dangerous it will be for the Republicans to embrace them.

March 23rd, 2010 at 4:59 pmThis is homegrown terrorism. These people need to be discovered and charged with threatening the lives of children.

I wonder if ‘kenneth’ is one of the perpetrators?
“I already served my country in the military. Now I’m ready for the WAR against Progressivism! Lock & Load!”
…hmmm…probably not…he was implying he was ready to kill, not vandalize.

Mark my words – something really bad is going to happen – I hope I’m wrong, but with this kind of crap going on, some fool is going to really try something stupid, and will succeed at it
March 23rd, 2010 at 5:01 pmRepublican leaders in Washington must stand up and condemn such acts.
March 23rd, 2010 at 5:02 pmThese people who committed such acts think they have backing in Washington by Republicans.Thus Republicans must not stay silent. Time has arrived to say something.
Republicans must show that they are not backing cimininals and troublemakers.
Republican leaders must also cooperate with FBI and police to track and apprehend these people.
Destroying others properties and threatening politicians in no way can be called a work of freedom, because it is against the law.
And who encouraged these terrorists?
March 23rd, 2010 at 5:02 pmI know this will sounds bad but I was actually waiting for a breaking story of some mad right-winger going on a shooting rampage.

Which “totalitarian tactics” are you referring to? Be specific.
March 23rd, 2010 at 5:03 pmWhat really irritates these people is that a man of color has managed to pass a stimulus package and HCR and that a woman has managed to garner enough votes to pass both and a jobs bill, too. While all the Repubs could do was create two wars, trillions of dollars in deficit spending, and Wall Street bailouts.

patrick5: *goes into ill-informed/Glenn Beck fed rant about communist, fascist, gay, secularist, pacifist extremists who are coming to take over America with health-care reform*
Prominent Republicans hide behind plausible deniability when violence or destruction are meted out from within their own teabagging ranks. If called upon, they beat a hasty, ex-post-facto retreat from “a few isolated extremists.”
If Republicans, Tea Partiers, etc. really want to avoid the moral turpitude cast on them collectively when things like this happen, then they must disavow the violent rhetoric on their own initiative. For example: the teabaggers with signs suggesting the use of a Browning gun to stop health care reform should have been told to get rid of those signs, leave the rally, or not come in the first place. Instead, they were a welcome part of the crowd, even to the elected GOPers who spoke there.
Shame on every last one of you.
March 23rd, 2010 at 5:07 pmUrging people to break windows but not advocating violence….hmmm…WTF?
What about flying glass? Would that not hurt, kill, or mame someone, thus resulting in the definition of VIOLENCE????
What is wrong with these people? The Taliban at its finest!
March 23rd, 2010 at 5:09 pmFrom the linked Kansas City Star article:
“We can break their windows,” he said. “Break them NOW. And if we do a proper job, if we break the windows of hundreds, thousands, of Democrat party headquarters across this country, we might just wake up enough of them to make defending ourselves at the muzzle of a rifle unnecessary.”
But he’s not advocating violence. Riiiiiight.

March 23rd, 2010 at 5:11 pmWell, patrick5, thanks to the Patriot Act, we know just what to do with folks like you. Bet you never thought THIS would come back to bite you in the ass, huh?
Title VIII: Terrorism criminal law
Main article: USA PATRIOT Act, Title VIII
Title VIII alters the definitions of terrorism, and establishes or re-defines rules with which to deal with it. It redefined the term “domestic terrorism” to broadly include mass destruction as well as assassination or kidnapping as a terrorist activity. The definition also encompasses activities that are “dangerous to human life that are a violation of the criminal laws of the United States or of any State” and are intended to “intimidate or coerce a civilian population,” “influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion,” or are undertaken “to affect the conduct of a government by mass destruction, assassination, or kidnapping” while in the jurisdiction of the United States.
March 23rd, 2010 at 5:11 pm“Totaliatarian tactics” like waging a year-long campaign to garner enough votes to pass a complex reform bill?
pee, give me one good reason why anyone should continue to pay attention to folks like you when you consistently cry wolf and use words that you don’t undersatnd, absent any relevant meaning or perspective?

March 23rd, 2010 at 5:18 pmNah, he’s just preemptively excusing the terrorist acts that will, be committed by others with bigger cojones than him, but no more brains.
March 23rd, 2010 at 5:20 pmVanderboegh needs to tell his Sissy Street Impotents that destruction of federal property involves a federal indictment, followed by incarceration in a federal prison is the accused is convicted. The federal prison here in Atlanta would be a great place for one of them to be sent if he/she is convicted. Large, dismal looking, dark gray granite, no windows to the outside world. Very creepy.
March 23rd, 2010 at 5:20 pmso now, if you get elected and if you promote your policies and you get them passed in congress by voting according to the constitution and rules of congress –
it is called totalitarian

Kristalnacht
Nicht wahr?
March 23rd, 2010 at 5:21 pmLet us protest giving health care to the least among us by nonviolently smashing the windows of those who passed this affront to humanity. Let us show our resolve by peacefully assassinating their children, yea unto the fourth generation. For then they will know that our God is God. And He will seek swift and sure retribution against all who refuse to bow down to His Will. For it is His will that we fight the good fight and lay waste to all non-believers. We shall use every non-violent means at our disposal: Bricks and stones from the earth shall be tossed from peaceful hands. Silencers shall be used on firearms, so as to not disturb the peace. For we are a peace-loving people.

BRAIN BLEACH, I NEED BRAIN BLEACH NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
March 23rd, 2010 at 5:24 pmRepublicans self-righteous proclaim that last year’s round of uncivil behavior at the various town hall events, as well as the recent rash of racial and homophobic slurs being directed at Congressional Democrats, acts of vandalism on federal property, along with threats and acts of violence against federal officials all constitute proof that the public is justifiably upset with the policies being promoted by Obama and the Democrats in Congress.
In 1938, Orson Welles presented a Mercury Theatre radio melodrama version of War of the Worlds which was so convincing in its presentation that many panicked listeners believed that they were witnessing a real invasion from Mars. Some folks took up arms against their neighbors, fearing that they were part of the alien invasion.
In 2009-10, right wing pundits went on the air, and and in an attempt to instill irrational fear and hatred among their listeners, repeatedly proclaimed that health care reform will result in Armageddon — the end of society as we know it, the onset of a fascist, socialist, tyrannical dictatorship led by a foreign-born, terrorist-sympathizing, Caucasian-hating closet Muslim.
The only difference between the 1938 event and the disingenuous, fear-mongering propaganda campaign being waged by the likes of Limbaugh, Beck, Bachmann, Palin, and others is that Welles did not hit the airwaves on the day following the mass hysteria and declare that the public response was proof that malevolent Martians did indeed exist.

March 23rd, 2010 at 5:30 pmBaggers are the ultimate entitlement whores. They believe that just because they are American citizens they don’t have to do anything to support the country if they don’t want to. They will use all of the services provided by the government that benefit them and then complain about having to pay the taxes that provide those services.
And if they don’t get their way, they have every right to use violence to enforce their ‘freedom’ on everyone else. They want it all and feel they are ‘entitled’ to have it for free.
March 23rd, 2010 at 5:30 pmOf course when Fox network keeps airing constant and relentless garbage messages about Obama,so are many radio talk shows..these viewers certainly will be affected at one point.
March 23rd, 2010 at 5:30 pmLatest polls suggest that among Republicans 45% think that Obama is not a US born president. 29% thinks he is like Hitler,plus many other disturbing polls results.
Why these people think that way?.
It is very Simple,they have been brainwashed and given daily dosages of hatred by their own so called ‘Conservative media’. The signs that were carried by Tea baggers during their rallies tell the whole story.
So, it is no surprise here that some of them crossed the line and started using death threats and attacking others properties.
But they must be dealt with..regardless of their own excuses ,or their backers excuses about the motives behind all of this.

Looks like they are finally so frazzled that they’ve crossed the line into possible jail time.
Throwing bricks is Definitely Vandalism. Potentially Incitement. And it is all up on the internet where a smart DA can download a copy for later retrieval.
Of course, a note which threatens to assasinate someone is a rather serious threat that can bring some police action also.

March 23rd, 2010 at 5:47 pmPatrick5 seems to think that the blame for vandalism does not lie with the actual vandals, but with progressives for using tactics he disagrees with.
Obviously the fascist Republican crime syndicate believes it has no choice but to resort to violence. Many of their propaganda representatives have told us here on TP to expect violence and I have no reason to doubt they will deliver on their threats.
A fascist Republican criminal like patrick5 exists in an alternate reality brought on by brainwashing. He has been told that when the majority makes a decision, it is totalitarianism. Others who are also brainwashed share this delusional state of mind, and so it gives them a shared sense of unity.
We must incarcerate not just those that actually committed these acts of vandalism, we must incarcerate all those that incite violence, even if it means locking up every Republican.
March 23rd, 2010 at 5:48 pm@67–katy–I’m African-American, and believe me when I say that the baggers do not want to discuss race in any way, shape, form, or fashion. I live in Middle GAin the same city as Erick Erickson. All the baggers here want to do is sit in their basements eating cheetos and hurling ugly and disparaging comments via their computer/laptop keyboards. In public, they’ll give you the evil eye and/or refuse to speak to you. If anyone mentions President Obama or something he has acoomplished or mentioned, watch out because the ugliness comes right out. My daughter and I went to a local largebox store yesterday, and the atmosphere was funereal because the HCR bill passed.

March 23rd, 2010 at 5:49 pmThe Republican establishment condones this nonsense, and even incites it. The [absentee] governor of my state, Pawlenty of MN, recently said to a crowd:
“I think we can lean a lot from that [Tiger Woods] situation — not from Tiger but from his wife. So she said, ‘I’ve had enough.’ She said, ‘No more.’ I think we should take a page out of her play book and take a nine iron and smash the windows out of big government in this country!”
(But, you know. It was just a humorous metaphor.)

The GOP’s Health Care Polling Problem
1 hour and 19 minutes ago by Matt Finkelstein
Now that health care reform is the law of the land, Republican leaders seem intent on perpetuating the argument that the American people oppose the legislation. At a press conference today, Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) cited a recent CNN poll finding that a majority of American voters are against the bill. “The CNN latest poll that I saw said that 59 percent of the respondents disapproved of the bill, didn’t want it,” Cornyn said.
However, as Media Matters Action noted yesterday, the top line of the CNN poll only tells half the story. When asked why they oppose the bill, 13 percent of the poll’s respondents said it is “not liberal enough.” In total, 52 percent of those surveyed approve of the bill or wish it was more liberal — which doesn’t exactly suit the GOP’s argument. After Cornyn spoke, MSNBC’s Ed Schultz correctly pointed out the distinction.
March 23rd, 2010 at 6:13 pmAnother example of how a lack of historical knowledge can be devastating. Confusion over Waterloo first and now the Vandal barbarians are invading Rome.
March 23rd, 2010 at 6:14 pmPer the Bush Administrations example, I think Limbuagh, Beck, and Hannity will need to be declared enemy combatants, sent to Gitmo, and waterboarded until we are sure they have no more useful information regarding these type of terrorist attacks.

There’s no need for draconian measures with the freaks. The second they were forced to hand over their wallets, shoes, and belts they would crack like eggs in a blender.

I’m running a little short on patience here with the lack of response to these escalating incidents of verbal and now physical violence against Democrats. Are we waiting for something more vicious? Remember the ’60s? Who died and who benefited? I think some Dems ought have folks with short-barrel 12 gauge shotguns spending the night in their home offices loaded with salt shot to greet these frickin’ brick-throwing cowards. Salt shot doesn’t kill or maim, but it does burn like hell and sends a message. I’m tired of being a passive victim. I’m Progressive with an attitude and a concealed carry license.

Maybe you should reconsider?
Reconsider what, exactly?
I think your calling for a violent revolution is stupid and reveals you to be incapable of real introspection…
I reconsidered that just now and found it sound.
I think you’ve got nothing…
I reconsidered that just now and found it sound.

March 23rd, 2010 at 7:26 pmI expect that Barry Goldwater would be appalled by this kind of crap. He wasn’t an advocate of brickthrowing, and he certainly wasn’t an advocate of threatening his Senatorial fellows or the members of the other house or their families. I think he would have called that sort of thing illegal.

March 23rd, 2010 at 8:52 pmVanderboegh is NOT a vandal– he is a terrorist. Inciting stupid people to destroy government property is not violence, according to this mentally ill terrorist? Cart him away, forever. He’s destructive, violent, and a liar. He is not needed in a country that is moving into a more positive future.
March 23rd, 2010 at 8:55 pmJust watching the Countdown report on Sarah Palin, the Red Queen of the Tea Parties, tweeting for her followers to “reload” and then posting a map of targeted Democrats in the November elections, pinpointing each district with a sniper rifle’s crosshairs.
Gee, I wonder why some of her fascist followers are vandalizing Democratic Party offices? How far will they go? Will elected Democrats, elected per the U.S. Constitution, have to start wearing bullet-proof vests and be protected by government security details, similar to what some federal judges have because of the right-wing death threats against them?
Sarah Palin, the Tea Party Red Queen, strikes again.
March 23rd, 2010 at 9:10 pmThe fruits of the GOP’s contempt for education shine through yet again. Back in the ’60s, no self-respecting John Bircher would have been caught dead misspelling Barry Goldwater’s bromide, but now that the GOP has thoroughly dispensed with the notion that readin’ and cipherin’ are of any value, the poor Republican Teabagging morons can’t even spell a holdup note correctly.
March 23rd, 2010 at 9:16 pmI am a conservative and part of the tea party and I can promise you that violence is NOT okay and neither are threats against lawmakers and their families. Who knows what group this nut claims to represent but he/she most definitly does not represent conservatives or the Tea party.
March 23rd, 2010 at 9:32 pmdewhead,
I have about a hundred quotes from the crazies that post here that refute your claim. The Tea baggers are extremely violent and pose a clear and present threat to the security of the United States of America.
March 23rd, 2010 at 9:36 pmSorry, dewhead. Your movement has attracted, if not created, the violent and stupid. You own them.
March 23rd, 2010 at 9:43 pmThis is the GOP in action.
Crybabies, lowlifes, veritable lynchers, children, bullies, hypocrites… need I continue?
And this is the “professional” group of lawmakers we want running our country? A bunch of sore losing opinionated unintelligent bohunks and good ol’ boys out to vandalize and do damage to property that they have no business touching?
This is the perfect example, a graphic representation, of what the rabid conservatives, to wit, the GOP are capable of, and maybe everybody had better take notice of it.

March 23rd, 2010 at 10:27 pm@pete,
March 23rd, 2010 at 10:52 pmI see alot of hate and violence on the left but at least I am not so judgemental to claim that all left wingers are violent. I think its dishonest to try and marginalize people who have a different political viewpoint than you do as racists and violent. The truth will win out. It always does. Honest people are able to understand that there can be loons claiming to part of any group. I think the more that the left trys to discount Americans who do not share their “spread the wealth” mentality with petty minded insults the more we will grow in numbers and the less credibility you will have.

March 23rd, 2010 at 11:00 pmThank you dewhead. That is exactly the kind of statment that the leaders of your movment need to state in order to stop the escalation of violence.
dewhead@164,
March 23rd, 2010 at 11:04 pmYou are flat out wrong. This criminal does represent the cons and teabaggers. When you have teabaggers at rallies with swastika`s and calling Obama a nazi, what are these nuts trying to say. When you have nuts hanging Obama in effigy do you think they are democrats,liberals, or a proggressives. Quite a few people here on TP and other blogs talk about some wingnut going off and killing someone(again) over President Obama`s policies. That is a fact. When it doe`s happen the person responsible will be prosecuted.
Beck,orielly,hannity,limpass,and the rest of the rightwingnut talkingheads should be prosecuted as accessories to murder.
These talkingheads used to say if you speak negativly about bush while our country is at war then you are a traitor. These same talkingheads haven`t said one positive thing about Obama since he was elected. So what has changed since the war criminal bush left office. Do you think it has anything to do with the color of Obama`s skin. You people lost for a good reason. You lost, Get over it and start acting like an American and stand behind your president.
Welcome to $arah Palin’s “Real America” where “Real Americans” demonize and threaten to kill those with whom they disagree.
March 23rd, 2010 at 11:14 pmI went ahead and voted 164 up for the heck of it..
March 23rd, 2010 at 11:24 pm@ 31.
March 23rd, 2010 at 11:31 pmEloquently and factually stated. The republicans were on the balcony cheering the teabaggers on.
Palin started this during the campaign; it escalated during last summer at the teabag rallies and now these thugs feel emboldened. In fact today Palin tweeted that folks should RELOAD and directed readers to her facebook page where she had a US map indicating where folks should fire the Democrats. The states were shown using cross-hair symbols.

March 24th, 2010 at 12:26 amdewhead – you actually sound like you might be a reasonable person. The problem with the tea party is that the whole things is a by-product of the extreme right-wing media – I know you don’t want to hear or believe that, but it is. Talking heads like limbaugh and beck are there for one reason only – to stuff their pockets with as much money as they can. The sad part is that they have found a formula that takes advantage of people’s fear and biases, and someone like yourself, who is most likely a decent, intelligent person is going to be seen as complicit and supportive with what a lot of people in that group are doing. It’s sad – it really is.
What is happening is dangerous at best, and close to outright violence at it’s worst. You are just about the first person I’ve seen on this sight that didn’t come in here spouting vile and hatred – and please don’t’ use the “well, the left does it too” excuse – that’s not what is going on here.

Those who support and incite violence such as Glenn Beck, Limbaugh, and the many Republican lawmakers should face charges. I believe in free speech but inciting to riot, inciting the insane fanatics to commit violent acts, and threatening Democrats is not free speech. Lawmakers that support these acts should be brought up on charges of treason. Beck, Limbaugh, and the talking heads that just want to boost their ratings by inciting violence should be charged with Federal crimes. If our government fails to address this and stop it then I am afraid some nutjob is going to commit a violent act that hurts someone.
March 24th, 2010 at 8:13 amThe Militia Act (in effect from 1792-1903) provided for the authority of the aşk şiirleri President to call out the militias of the states whenever the çiçek United States shall be invaded, or be in imminent danger of invasion from any foreign nation or Indian tribe.

March 24th, 2010 at 9:48 pmIn addition to learning how to spell “extremism,” the teabaggers and trolls here should be made aware of the fact that Barry Goldwater, whose quote they misspell, was pro-choice (I think even one of his granddaughters had an abortion) and supported the idea of gays serving openly in the military by famously saying, “One doesn’t have to be straight to shoot straight.” Off of the Senate floor, he was known to have close friendships with Democrats, including the very liberal George McGovern.
