    Default Shooting of Congressman Steve Scalise - Threats to others....

    Any ideas? Eh, where is all of this headed?

    From article:

    It wasn't just Wednesday, and it wasn't just Republicans

    Shortly after Wednesday's shooting, HuffPost reported Rep. Claudia Tenney, R-N.Y., received a threatening email reading, "Do you NOT expect this? When you take away ordinary peoples very lives in order to pay off the wealthiest among us, your own lives are forfeit. Certainly, your souls and morality were lost long before. Good riddance.”

    But conservatives are not the only ones feeling threatened. Just this month, two Democratic political candidates withdrew from races citing fears for their safety.

    Kim Weaver, who was running for Congress in Iowa against Republican Steve King, said in a Facebook post that she "received very alarming acts of intimidation, including death threats. While some may say enduring threats are just a part of running for office, my personal safety has increasingly become a concern.”
