Have you personally seen any right-wing threats of violence online?
On message boards, FR, etc. And if you did, did you report them to the FBI?

I saw plenty on them on this Topix forum: http://www.topix.com/forum/us/T1RTSJI06UR8CB63S/p2273#l... . And I've reported several of them, in particular, GSCensored (who I think was mentioned on here earlier). These people are dangerous and Homeland Security needs to throw the book at them. Their basic message is "give us everything we want politically or we'll kill you all."

2. I have on a site called timebomb 2000. Its a conspiracy site.
I reported them to the FBI but made the mistake of telling them so and was barred from posting. If others want to monitor, the site is http://www.timebomb2000.com/vb/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=9

7. Interesting.....
News of the Weird, to be sure.

I could not find any threats, though.

Do you have any links? I think I need a login to use the search function.

4. No but then again I don't go to many places
except here at DU. I have to admit there have been times I would like to shake the shit out of a few here but I don't go around and voice that. So no I don't see any but thats not to mean I think its not happening. I'm just answering your question

5. Some guy on Facebook threatened my husband and we think he is "gone"
Edited on Wed Aug-05-09 04:26 PM by Serial Mom
It was agruing about healthcare and my husband made a reference that the guy's mom might have been drinking too much when she was pregnant with him and he posted back that if my husband EVER mentioned his mom again, he would hunt him down and eliminate him.

Some other poster contacted FB on it and we haven't been able to find the guy on there since... maybe he blocked everything, but we can't even find his name or anything else the guy posted.

I know you mean violence against President or Representatives, but it is wrong at any level.

6. Yes
Edited on Wed Aug-05-09 04:36 PM by proud patriot
I've been told to my face that I should be hung from the nearest tree .

That was before the invasion of Iraq ... I told the person it's bush who
is the traitor .

I've been swerved at by huge SUV's , one lady I was able
to confront at the very next stop light in front of all the
wittinesses .

I've received letters in my mailbox and phone calls after writing LTTE's .

Back when we were outspoken 8 percenters after 9/11 threats of violence
against me were daily .

edited to add Yes I reported every incident at my home or over the phone .
local police have a political file all goes in the same file ..
I've kept everything .

9. Yeah...par for the course.
Had one guy tell me he was going to hunt me down and beat me with my vasaline stained keyboard after he told the mods of the site to ban my "liberal-ass". Points for creativity...but this was after I told this ever-angering Keyboard Commando with every reply "ELIST BITCH."
