Anyway, the only threat was a veiled "We're out here, Mr. & Mrs.
Politician, and we're getting awfully antsy with your actions of late.
Please stay in line and heed our wishes, Mr. Public Servant, or we'll
have to steer you with a firmer hand." What was Gunner's quote
regarding public outcry? "From the soapbox, to the ballot box, to the
cartridge box." This guy was a visual cue, a precursor, for that
statement's logical outcome...since they haven't taken the first two
cues to heed. <shrug>
Don, the politicians have been doing whatever the f*ck they feel like
for decades now and the people are finally starting to stand up for
themselves and voice their anger. The act of carrying arms to a
political rally was one of the little cues they're using to alert the
politicians to this. Do you really think their statement went
unnoticed, or was misconstrued?
[Don Foreman]
You hint at it and dance around it but don't really make a simple
declarative statement. Was it that if the politicians don't do what
angry citizens want them to do then the citizens will shoot them? If
not that, than pls explain the reference to the cartridge box.

I didn't say I'd do it, and I didn't say I agreed with it entirely,
and I didn't say it didn't cause other problems, but I am glad it was
done.

Veiled threat -- a threat that is concealed, hidden, disguised,
obscured, etc.
In other words, a real threat in disguise.
Like Gunner, you "wouldn't do it," but you're glad someone else is,
and you're cheering them on.
And just before I plonked you:
[EH]
Virtually all of these gun-toters are nothing more than the punks who
stand behind the real bullies, cheering and egging them on. As that
former SS agent said a couple of days ago, the big problem you present
to the rest of us is that your irresponsible, trashy "posturing" is
going to encourage one of them to pull a trigger.
Or to set off a bomb. Notice the similarity between what Gunner has
been saying about his "100 million friends" who are going to kill
everyone they don't like, and the words of Timothy McVeigh, who said
he was starting a revolution and that "blood would flow in the
streets."
Gunner isn't a McVeigh. A pugnacious blowhard, he doesn't have the
guts for it. He's just providing the verbal ammunition and moral
support for the McVeighs. And there you are, a few steps back with his
other little friends, giving him encouragement and repeating his
slogans.
Carry on. You've covered your ass but you aren't fooling anyone. "Good
guys" don't incite others to violence.
<plonk>
