I am continuously amazed at the Tea Party's willingness to encourage radical, almost treasonous, criminal behavior. A sign like this is no less than an implicit threat that the President and Members of Congress who support the health care reform bill should be shot.
I have no doubt that if signs of this level of threatening physical harm were carried by anti-Iraq War or anti-Dubya demonstrators, many on the right would have demanded, and correctly so, that the people carrying such signs be charged with making terroristic threats. Yet, today there is largely silence from Republicans and the right or even open encouragement.
Shameful.
