Is this what our politics has become? Really? And what’s worse — that an actual major candidate for the Senate could threaten violence if she doesn’t win, or that the mainstream media doesn’t even find this unusual?

Interestingly, I agree with Sharon Angle on most of her points. The second amendment to our constitution was put there so that people could overthrow their government if it became tyrannical. But the second amendment was definitely not put into the constitution so that a radical minority (especially a religious minority) could impose their will by violence. That would NOT be democracy. But democracy is a concept that some of these people don’t seem to understand.
