A threat an elderly Guilford is accused of making over Planned Parenthood funding doesn't quite jibe with recent efforts to be more civil in political discourse.
The woman is accused of threatening to castrate a politician who wants to cut funding for Planned Parenthood, the New Haven Register reports.
The FBI went to the woman's home on Norton Road on Tuesday afternoon, after receiving a report of the phone call threat.
The woman is in her 80s and used to volunteer for Planned Parenthood, police told the newspaper. It's unclear which politician she threatened.
As a little background, federal lawmakers are considering cuts to the organization's funding through something called the Pence Amendment, which Indiana Republican Representative Mike Pence introduced.
He's proposing eliminating Title X, which was enacted in 1970 to fund health centers that offer family planning services. The proposal has become part of a larger argument in Washington, D.C. about abortion and health care.
The FBI said that the woman, who wasn't identified, will not face any charges. While her call was meant to be threatening, authorities said, it wasn't credible and the woman was never going to carry out the act.

It’s past time to start levying charges against these violent loose mouth idiots, make them accountable for what they say for a change. “Terroristic Threat” charges is a beginning or whatever statute is appropriate.
NBC? Wow
Liberals have always accused conservatives of doing what in reality is done mostly by liberals themselves.
It's a rule thumb

Obviously not, but feminazis sure love to dream about castration. It may be their favorite pastime.
The Phrase “Old Crone” comes to mind.
Mothers of the new castrati.
Perhaps someone should send her the Full-time weiner peeler want ad.

Slow day at the FBI, nothing else going on so they spend time and tax payers money looking like morons.
