'Democrats Far More Aggressive in Seminole County,' Victim Says
LONGWOOD, Fla. -- The home of a Central Florida Republican headquarters manager was shot up and damaged over his support of Sen. John McCain, the man told police.
Rog Coverely said several pellets pierced his Longwood home. Coverely showed several spiderwebbed-holes in the front windows of his home.
The Republican manager said he is convinced he was targeted because of new McCain signs he added around his home.
"All I can tell you is this, I have a very good relationship with my neighbors," Coverely said. "I mow my lawn. The only thing that has changed is I have two McCain signs in my front yard."
Coverely said he has taken about 300 calls concerning stolen or vandalized McCain signs in the area.
"It says this campaign is getting vicious," Coverely said.
Coverely said it appears Democrats are becoming more aggressive in the county.
"I wouldn't say slipping, but I would say the Democrats have become far more aggressive in Seminole County because it is such a heavy Republican area," Coverely said.
Meanwhile, McCain was in Florida on Thursday.
The Republican presidential nominee spoke at Allstar Building Materials in Ormond Beach. Later he'll be in Sarasota for a "Joe the Plumber" bus tour rally at Robarts Arena.

What is further revolting is that there is an Obama ad right next to this story on the website.

Looks like we are going to have to fight fire with fire. Neighborhood watch may take on a new meaning. Wonder if the Obamans will resort to ied’s? Obomber did say it is neighborly to spread the wealth.

Obama ordered his facist community antagonizer thugs to get in their faces, they are following orders. It's time the McCain campaign, talk radio, Fox News, etc. called out Obama for making that statement and pinned acts like this on him.

This and the

Today, I joined the NRA.Congrats. Your dues help subsidize my NRA life membership, which I gave to myself on my 21st birthday, along with a Colt M1911.
However, I still contribute to the NRA-ILA, their political action arm.

I belong to the NRA (not lifetime - just year to year) also. I’m packing a Glock 19 and I plan to keep it with me while I work polls on Nov. 4th. I checked - as long as its not a school you’re allowed to carry in a polling place.

Good call, Corin.
I finally re-upped my membership earlier this year as well. It had lapsed.
I’m considering a Life membership, mainly ‘cause I like the hat. :-)

What is even more troubling to me is the lack of response from victims of these attacks. Liberals are using Brown Shirt tactics, so fight back for crying out loud.

I just got my membership in the mail with my NRA sticker for my car. It goes right next to the McCain/Palin sticker.

Agreed.
We have to get the word out. The MSM, if we let them, will bury this stuff but hype up made-up stories of what someone yelled at a rally.

Things get rough forcing Obama to go to Hawaii.
At home they get the guns out.
Note that this is the signal, the beginning.
The MSM will not warn our country.

Meanwhile, late this afternooon, the Obama-Biden campaign released a statement, saying: "This is a horrendous act of violence. Our thoughts and prayers are with the young woman for her to make a speedy recovery, and we hope that the person who perpetrated this crime is swiftly apprehended and brought to justice." OK, good start, now how about calling for an end to this?
