Death Threat From the Anti-Semitic Far Right (Free Republic mentioned) [details in post 49]
debbieschlussel.com ^ | 04/23/09 | Debbie Schlussel

Posted on 04/23/2009 11:01:36 AM PDT by DFG

As longtime readers know, in the past several years, I've gotten a lot of death threats, ALL of them from Muslim residents of the United States a/k/a the "moderate" ones. Three of the four have been prosecuted, but the Justice Department refuses to pursue the most scary and frequent of the death threat perpetrators (Lola Elzein, who contacted me six times with escalating threats of rape, torture, and death to myself and my family members).

But yesterday, I got a not-so-veiled threat from a man named Chad Castagana, who is on the right . . . the far, far, nutty right. He was, in the past, an alleged frequent commenter on Free Republic under a fake name (not to say Freepers are like him, most are not), and he has a far-right blog.

Per Schlussel, Castagana posted in Free Republic in the past under a fake name. 99.9% of Freepers are not Ron Paul, Alex Jones, Pat Buchanan neo-nazi crazies.

How does she know this? Where's the evidence?

Could be someone claiming to have been a FReeper just to debase FR.

Poor Debbie ~ she's all upset because this guy could really be bad since, as it turns out, he's been convicted of "anthrax hoax threats".

No, Debs baby, that's not the ones to be afraid of. The guys who really have anthrax are still out there courtesy of the Leftwingtard brought over from the CIA to run the investigation for the FBI.

You haven't seen the Obama regime get all excited about anthrax either ~ "They Know"!

Is his once having posted at FR relevant to the article? Is it more relevant than his shopping at Sears, or driving a Ford? I don’t know why the information had to be inserted.

Why the gratuitous mention of FR? Castagna sent her a direct email under his own name - the threat wasn't made in any post here.

It is disturbing one of our own got threats from the right and left.

I’ve only met a couple of anti-semites on F.R. Overwhelming pro-semetic here.

Certainly less than at “liberal” places like Digg and DU where anti-semite positions are the norm.

Others claim that he was a prolific poster to the right-wing Free Republic message board under the pseudonym “marc costanzo”. [1]

Mabye she could post another idiotic screed after the new Star Trek movie comes out. Judging from the threads here re her idiotic screed on the Watchmen film, that should work like a charm.

“my last name is Looney.”

She’s says the he’s one of the “lunatic’s” from the far right.

So as long as your last name isn’t Lunatic...you’re safe.

And I’m sure any ‘family resemblance’ purely coincidental.

:0)

Watchman was both good ~ and bad. We have a lot of artists in the family. They could not help but notice that "the package" on the big blue guy was exactly the same size no matter how big he got. Plus, it was 2 dimensional ~ like it was just a piece of cardboard ~ no 3-D value in the drawing at all.

You'd think a guy with godlike capabilities would have taken care of "that" problem right off the bat!

The result is we had to give the movie a C- for technical construction.

Well that was an account here, shows banned or suspended currently.

Don’t know for how long, nor why. But if he made anti-semetic remarks here or real threats of violence he wouldn’t last long.

I supported Pat Buchanan for years. I joined a local Rabbi to do it. I am one of Israel’s strongest advocates. So when this person states that all Buchananites hate Jews, she’s simply factually incorrect. And when you slander his followers as neo-Nazi crazies, you really don’t know what you are talking about either.

Many of us joined Pat because of his stand on illegal immigration. I don’t particularly like our hospitals, schools, and population being abused at their hands. Every case of murder, rape, pedophilia, robbery, grand theft, that takes place at the hands of these people, is a crime that would not have taken place if they were not here. That was reason enough for me to support Pat.

As for Pat being an anti-Semite, I have heard him defend Israel’s right to defend itself. During one campaign where Israel was taking action to prevent terrorists from entering it’s borders, Buchanan stated that any nation including Israel has the right, indeed to obligation to put an end to it.

Am I supposed to consider the former Presidents and their appointments anti-Semites when they stated that Israel should show restraint during these situations, and asked it to refrain from taking action that might interfere with some negotiations or another? Well, I don’t. People have views and they express them. That does not in all instances make them hatters of Jews.

BTW, 99.9% of Freepers don’t post under their own names.

Unfortunately I gave her site a hit, just to read the whole item.

However, though not a major Sean Hannity listener, am I deaf in NOT hearing the antisemitism Miss Schlussel says he represents?? That seemed out of left field to me.

Paul and Buchanan are "neo-nazi crazies" now?

99.9% of Freepers are not low gray-matter types who hijack their own threads by posting calumnies and strawmen. It seems you may be in the minority.

P.S. - Schlussel is a loud-mouthed dingbat. Who cares what she thinks.

No, he posted under his actual name in 2006. Made all of five posts. Lasted all of 17 minutes and 8 seconds before a mod dropped the boom on him. I guess it would be asking too much for Debbie to contact Jim or a mod to get the specifics.
