A pathetic drunk makes a crank call. Let’s see how Cantor responds....

Why would he respond? The man has been arrested on federal charges of threatening the safety of a public official and his family.They will send him to gal for a few years where he can think about what he did.

That was before 9/11 and the laws changing.Did you see the record of what this guy has done?This is something that has been going on for quite a while and he is not “harmless” with he type of threats he has made.Crazy maybe but not harmless.So you are telling me that if someone calls you on a continuing basis and threatens t murder your children,rape them first and do the same to your wife that you wouldn’t call the cops?
