BBC News - 'Ricin' sent to New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg

Preliminary tests on two letters sent to New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg suggest they contain the deadly poison ricin, say police.
The writer threatened Mayor Bloomberg, referring to the debate on gun laws, they said.
Emergency personnel who came into contact with one letter showed minor symptoms of ricin exposure.

Another right wing terror attack in the US by its own citizens.......
 
yea there is already another thread like this... delete this one please mods.
 
Why do people automatically assume it is a right-wing nutjob?

That's what right wingers do when the hate someone. They resort to violence. Take this teabagger loughner for example. He hate Giffords for some odd reason so he just tries to kill her. You will never see people of the left take out their anger in such a way.

I thought Libbos didn't like bigotry.

Loughner was a nut that had conflicting political views from all over the political spectrum. It's not accurate to align him with the right or the left.

As this silly game you want to play, your claim is bull****. The right and the left will fight back by acts of murder.

I don't disagree with the bolded statement, but with the right it is at a higher frequency. I can give you tons of examples of conservative violence while you could probably only give a few with the left. There is a reason why conservatives are pro gun, pro death penalty and pro war. They seem to have a propensity for violence.

so you have proof who is responsible

and I would note that Bloomberg is a left wing terrorist attacking our constitutional rights. He's a scum bag but that does not justify someone trying to poison him because its more likely some innocent postal worker etc will be the most likely victim of such a cowardly attack

still stuck on that stupid lie that Loughner-a democrat-was a tea bagger? in fact most of the well publicized recent attacks were perpetrated by left wingers

You have made that moronic claim several times and have constantly been tattooed on it yet you continue.

The occurrence of violence in a certain group is directly propositional to how the government acts. It wouldn't surprise me if people on the right have a higher tendency to get violent when the government acts towards gun rights and I wouldn't be surprised if people on the left have a higher tendency to get violent when the government acts towards union rights.

Loughner is a lefty.

Which fringe at the current moment seems more likely to threaten or assassinate public officials on the count of restrictive gun laws?

No, Bloomberg is not a terrorist. You don't get to toss terms of that severity around with such casualty. That mentality lends credence to the very actions we're discussing.

sure I can. this is a free nation and I can call a turd a turd, a terrorist a terrorist. Bloomberg is both. He has conspired to violate the federal firearms laws of this nation by sending unlicensed "investigators" into other states where they violated the laws of both this nation and those states. He conspires daily against our constitutional rights.
 
Not at all. When discussing the fringes, logic is useless.:cool:
To some apparently. To deny the likely politics of extremists willing to assassinate public officials on the count of restrictive gun laws is absurd.

When people have their rights threatened or worse violated by the government it should surprise no one that some people decide to fight back. I realize you want to make this all about guns laws and how crazy the right is, but like it or not we have a right to bear arms and some people will do something about it when they feel that right is threatened. The same is really true for any right that the government acts on. Someone somewhere might just fight back and if that happens no one should be surprised.

Oh you can, just not with any accuracy or credibility. Bloomberg is not a terrorist. He satisfies no criteria that would label him as such.

When Muslims engage in terrorism, it's their religion's fault

When right wingers engage in terrorism, it's the governments fault
