A veteran from the Denver-area, who did not want to be identified, received an email entitled, "Open letter to the 22 veterans and enlisted men who are planning to commit suicide today. Read this instead!"
In 2012, the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs released a study that found 22 veterans committed suicide every day in 2010.
"If you are ready to take your own life, you have nothing to lose and everything to gain by keeping your oath to God and gaining His respect for doing so. Do not take your own life, but instead do what you KNOW to be right - taking the lives of the domestic enemies/traitors who lied and did this to you." "Clear your conscience. Keep your oath and regain your honor and do your country and the world a great service by executing its domestic enemies that are wreaking havoc on the whole world, as you SWORE to do." The email then provides a lengthy list of current and former senators and representatives in Congress, along with possible home and work addresses in their home state and Washington, D.C.
"We don't think that it's related to cake decorating, so we were wondering if someone somehow got one of the NRA distribution lists. I didn't receive it, but I don't get the NRA Freedom magazine, which my wife does," wrote the blogger.

Or it could be a scam by alphabet agencies to see if there is any support for the idea. We know they're trawling everything. I'd be real careful here. Just saying.

I think everyone, even the politicians, would agree.
Better them than a school full of children.

I find myself having to agree with the email, that killing corrupt legislators would be much better than suicide. Either one carries risks though..

WHAT!? Murder is better than suicide? You think corruption validates murder?
Sick…
And posting this in public goes to show with how clever you are as well.
Get help.

Very good, I usually think of that. It actually does not sound like anyone would do this that was a citizen. Nothing to really expect to gain by it except personal satisfaction from corrupt people getting offed. If they wanted it so bad they would find a better way rather than ask suicidal veterans to do the dirty work, that is really insulting to the self worth of anyone , let alone someone who is suicidal.
It has alphabet agency written all over it, probably green lighted by the fruit cake in the Whitehouse himself. (it also fits in with the boneheaded idiocy of Eric Holder and Obama perfectly) It is similar to their failed plot in the Mexico firearms scandal.
They hope to increase the perceived need for a dramatic upswing in domestic surveillance or laws that will further protect them and decrease citizen's security which will take away OUR PROTECTIONS.. They sure been doing that a lot already.edit on 6-2-2014 by alienreality because: (no reason given)

Correction on that failed plot line of yours.....
The "plot"(fast and furious)was successful......as the plan was to arm the Sinaloa cartel to the teeth so that they could be the strongest one....The DEA/CIA are in bed with them big time......

Veiled satire? Sir, I am a master of satire (make a living off it actually). Your definition of satire is wrong first off.
"the use of blatant humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues."
None of what your validation of murder did.
Secondly…you were not using satire.

Actually, no, I didn't take it as a threat or an indication that you are dangerous. I thought it was a direct show of a more serious problem with society that infects over 70% of western minds.
That you are apathetic and blind to pain, injustice and yes…the indecency of murder.
Its my personal view that almost all of my peers in this country have become TV worshiping SouthPark Junkies with little or no humanity left.
And yes…I think you find murder acceptable and/or amusing from the comfort of you home.
Good day.

But what is really discouraging is that people talk about violence instead of talking about counsels of citizens who play hardball with teeth and really get into strong meetings with them to let them know they're game is up, we're withdrawing all support.
The horse has to go ahead of the cart. Basically every single alternative and negotiation has to be tried first.edit on 7-2-2014 by Unity_99 because: (no reason given)
