‘Pro-Gun’ Ricin mailer turns out to be Hollywood anti-gunner

The letters came in the mail, and they bore a chilling message:

You will have to kill me and my family before you get my guns. Anyone wants to come to my house will get shot in the face. The right to bear arms is my constitutional right and I will excersice [sic] that right til the day I die. whats in the letter is nothing compared to what ive got planned for you.

The first one was addressed to Michael Bloomberg, the most visible face of the anti-gun movement, but it was intercepted at a postal facility that screens mail for New York celebrities. (No one will ever poison one of them, just an expendable postal worker, the new Ruling Class equivalent of Cleopatra’s food taster). Within a few days an identical letter with an identical date and postmark came to Mark Glaze, the guy who does the day-to-day gruntwork of trying to disarm America for his boss, Michael Bloomberg, at his lobbying firm The Raben Group, 1640 Rhode Island Avenue NW, Washington DC. Glaze was not covered by postal special treatment at the time, but the envelope was opened, as all mail to Washington lobbyists is, by an expendable intern.

Those few individuals who seriously study criminal communications, like these letters, can often utter an opinion with some degree of confidence about whether the letter is written by an actual idiot, or by an intelligent and educated person impersonating an idiot. These letters do show deliberate misspellings and usage “errors” of the type used in such an impersonation.

A third letter with slightly variant text, and with a curious absence of spaces after most periods, but with the same Louisiana postmark was sent to the President. It read (bold text is added variation from the Bloomberg/Glaze letters, strikethrough is material deleted that was in those letters):

You will have to kill me and my family before you get my guns.Anyone wants to come to my house will get shot in the face.I served in the united states army and because your muslim ass will probly never be able to retire.I will have to work until my last breath.I deserve better and so do my wife and kiddos.I will take care of this myself and make sure you wont be runnin this country in the ground any further.The right to bear arms is my constitutional right and I will excersice [sic] that right til the day I die. What’s in the letter is nothing compared to what ive got plannedin store for you mr president.

All three letters tested positive for ricin, using a somewhat insensitive field test. No one was exposed to lethal levels of the toxin (lethal levels being extremely small), fortunately. But the publicity over the letters wasn’t what the putative sender might have expected. Glaze, Bloomberg, and Obama, and their partisans and the media (but we repeat ourselves!) received the news with something approximating delight. The letters were proof that gun owners were murderous, insurrectionist sickos, fully deserving the IRS audits and whatever other miseries federal authorities could bring down on them. Editorials and “news analyses” (i.e., the New York Times equivalent of the front-page editorial formerly favored by Pravda pre-1992) piled imprecations on the presumed facilitator and enabler of this act of terrorism: the NRA, naturally.

Meanwhile, the actual investigation took another turn.

Postal inspectors have access to some of the coolest new tools in the Patriot Act toolbox. Every piece of mail is imaged, databased, and stored forever (just like the source, destination, duration, and location of every phone call, apparently). The Bloomberg and Obama letters were quickly tracked through a Shreveport postal center, back to a bunch of mail that came in through New Boston and Texarkana, Texas.

And apparently ‘celebrities’ have their own post office.

Wait a a minute! What?! USPS is spying on everybody too?
Yup. I worked for the PO. In the mail processing centers the cancelling and sorting machines can time stamp just about every piece of mail. The bar codes on the envelopes can be used to determine where and when that letter was dropped off as well as where and at what times it went through the sorting and delivery processes. Even the junk mail we all get is closely tracked from pick up to delivery.

I think she just needs to give herself over to a higher power.

"Hey boss, the printout says 'Ricin confirmed, you dummy!'"

That's the most 45yo-appearing 35 I have ever seen.

Reevaluate? Many people do not look their best when they are being arrested for terrorist threats and for sending poison to the alleged "president".

Insane? Totally. Ugly? Only on the inside.

It would be something to worry about, if anyone still used the USPS.

They chose to reinterview Shannon, and they fluttered her.

"I'll bet they did! Fluttered her rotten, baby!"

Husband is probably not a gun owner-none were mentioned as having been found in the house. I bet if he goes to purchase a firearm in a gunstore he fails the background check now.

Oh he has some number of guns, per the article. That’s the whole basis of her forgery. They just didn’t take any.
