New "funny" RW email suggests seniors should shoot Democratic members of Congress.

They're sooooo CUTE!

Repulsive "Joke Of The Day" Email

Wed Aug 05, 2009 at 13:00:00 PM EDT

Always nice to know what hard-core Republicans find amusing and chat about- like shooting Congressional members!
Some days I wonder just what the hell some of my relatives are thinking- check out this "joke" my 70 year old aunt forwarded to me and her entire list of contacts:


Subject: The Perfect Solution to Senior Health Care

While discussing the upcoming Universal Health Care Program with my friend the other day, I think we have found the solution.

I am sure you have heard the ideas that if you're a senior you need to suck it up and give up the idea that you need any health care. A new hip? Unheard of. We simply can't afford to take care of you anymore. You don't need any medications for your high blood pressure, diabetes, heart problems, etc. Let's take care of the young people. After all, they will be ruling the world very soon.

So here is the solution. When you turn 70, you get a gun and 4 bullets.

You are allowed to shoot 2 liberal senators and 2 liberal congressmen that support this bill.

Of course, you will be sent to prison where you will get 3 meals a day, a roof over your head and all the health care you need!

New teeth, great! Need glasses, no problem New hip, knee, kidney, lung, heart? Well bring it on.

And who will be paying for all of this. The same government that just told you that you are too old for health care.

And, since you are a prisoner, you don't have to pay any income tax.

And if we all do our part we can end up in the same prison and have one hell of a social life. I really think we have found a Perfect Solution!


Waiting to see how many others in the family decide to forward this mess to me.

Lest we forget others who advocate murdering Congressional members...

7. They want elderly parents to go to prison so they don't have to take care of them.
Then they can move outta the basement and take over mom & dad's upstairs house

3. glen beck urges his listeners to murder liberals
Chatting about his "comedy" tour (imagine conservative "comedy") he said if you see anyone who is writing something, its a liberal writing a bad review of my show. Kill them.

19. Who knows?
Every time one of them comes unglued (for example, Dr. Tiller's murderer and the loon that shot people in the Holocaust museum), they all back away and start issuing denials that they ever suggested violence.

20. Agreed.
If they ever decide that all hummasexticals have to be eradicated, I'm ready. And I'd be willing to bet that I'm a better marksman than most of them.

24. sadly, the current system doesn't treat ederly patients well
as we get older, we tend to cost insurance companies more. it's sad that so many americans are so blinded by hatred that they work against their own (and everyone else's) best interest.

28. I suggest that you forward the name of the "forwarder" to the FBI with a note attached:
"Isn't threatening to kill a person a crime? Looks like this person is trying to get people to kill others ..."
