RW radio host inspires threats against Broward schools, now she's going to Washington!
Edited on Wed Nov-10-10 06:16 PM by sixmile
Joyce Kaufman, professional conservative agitator and new chief of staff for Congressman-elect Alan West (FL-22nd), apparently inspired a right wing whacko to send threatening e-mails and make a phone call to 850-WTFL earlier today causing Broward Administrators and Emergency Personnel to lock down over 200,000 students in schools across the county during the investigation. The threats included 'something big' happening at a Government Building, Post Offices or a school.

Local news is reporting that a rally shown on Rachel Maddow's show last night featuring Kaufman ranting against gun control, and threatening 'bullets' if ballots don't work, apparently inspired this right wing resident to make the threats earlier today.

Broward county is the nation's sixth largest school district. West named her as chief of staff yesterday.

This is the kind of people the teabaggers want in Washington.

Meet Joyce Kaufman:

To me it's incitement. A crime.
Please tell your RW family and friends no one is coming for their guns.

1. Grossly irresponsible for anyone in her position.



She should be held accountable for her actions and made to serve as an
example of what that manor of unprofessional conduct will result in.

2. I hear on NPR that 100 000 Floridians will lose their unemployment
this month. Wonder how many voted for Alan West, or just did not vote at all.

Because tax breaks for the rich are more important than feeding your family.
