Drummond Pike’s long winded letter to advertisers is linked to at the bottom of the ACORN blog post.... read it and tell me it doesn’t sound VERY threatening.

He’s essentially saying, stop advertising on FOX, and WSJ or there will be violence.

Also catch this...how probable is it that a devoted Glenn Beck fan would lose his marbles and decide he’s going to commit violent acts targeting Tides Foundation only to give his first jailhouse interview to....Media Matters.

Something ain’t right.

Pike seems to be afflicted with a paranoia and inability to prove claims that's common among the left.

This is neither a hollow request, nor one rhetorically made. There is an urgency to it born of our own direct experience as the target of a would-be assassin inspired by Fox's Glenn Beck Show.

On July 19th of this year, I arrived at our San Francisco office to learn that a misguided person carrying numerous guns and body armor had been on his way to start a "revolution" by murdering my colleagues and me. The Oakland Police Department called to tell us that, following a 12 minute shootout with the California Highway Patrol, law enforcement officials arrested an assailant who had targeted the Tides Foundation, an organization which I founded and currently serve as CEO, and the ACLU for violence.

Well those are claims but I'm not seeing anything more than your word that it happened. I suppose you could have posted the police report to prove your claims but oddly enough, you chose otherwise.
