An where is the NJ. Criminal Investigations Bureau and/or the FBI.

Where is Ms. Pelosi?
Given all her up in arms comments about threats to House members?
Or it is only members of her political party she is worried about?

#2 In the olden days, this would have needed an armed response. When you threaten a man's family, those are fighting words; when you threaten lives, those become fatal words.

#3 Van Drew's office alleged that in a recording, McCall threatened to "do everything in my power to ensure that you are deposed if not dead."
No" allege" about it. I listened to it. Those are his exact words.

I like that idea of a person being held immediately accountable for threats and their spoken words and all to often lies.

Imagine a situation where the threaten and/or slandered party could legally demand immediate satisfaction. An if the accuser refused or failed to Stand up for their words. Then the would be immediately brought into civil/criminal court and striped of clothing and whipped.

Taking a persons $$$ does little to teach them a lesson that they will forever remember. But a whip surely will leave a lasting impression.

#6 Indeed! When Burr killed Hamilton in their famous duel he did us all a favor. One less politician in the world.
