2. I wonder if SHE has drawn any conclusions from this?

It may also be her last term in office.

Next question: Is she really as dumb as she presents or was she showboating fro the local Yahoos?

7. The right wing is convinced that the left wing is full of terrorists armed with bazookas.

8. I don't trust her one bit. But no one should be fearful of their lives for political reasons.

No one. We solve our differences with the ballot box, not the cartridge box.

Even though she's left the MAGA fold, I still don't trust her. A viper is still a viper no matter how much it tries to convince you it's a koala.

Her experience with being on the receiving end of Dump's hate was new for her after she sided with the women and children who had been abused/molested by the Epstein crew. I think that maybe she has gained a sudden insight into compassion from the experience of seeing how viciously those women and girls were treated, and the lasting damage it did to them. She's certainly still a Repub., but not quite as nasty. Maybe her constituency also had a bit to do with her change.

14. Not to be a contrarian, but this isn't exactly true. A man is currently serving a prison sentence...

...for threatening her life.

"CHATTANOOGA, Tenn — A Chattanooga man who left threatening messages over a 2-year period to Georgia Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene has just learned his federal prison fate.

Sentencing documents say 24-year-old Garry Lebron Hayes not only threatened violence against the congresswoman and her family, but also took pains to identify himself and his hometown.

Those court documents say one of the messages Hayes left on March 9th, 2022, said

Hey [Congresswoman]. My name is Gary, G-A-R-R-Y, Hayes, H-A-Y-E-S. And I’m a little bit off. I’m a little bit taken back, but I’m from that area you are. And at any time that you feel like you want to do white nationalist s---, call my name, call my name. I’ll come see you and your children, and we’ll see how that ends up. B----!"

Both sides of the political isle--and many other groups without a true political home--have their share of crazy people willing to do and say crazy things. We have to acknowledge that, and we need to try and address that within our own community if possible.

Threats against anyone's life should be totally out of bounds.
