Unreal: Liberals Threaten to “Assassinate” Trey Gowdy Over Benghazi
Conservative Tribune ^ | May 7 2014 | Conservative Tribune

Posted on 05/07/2014 12:39:38 PM PDT by PoloSec

The truth can be dangerous. Some extremists will go to great lengths to keep the truth from coming out, even if that means threatening harm to United States Congressman Trey Gowdy.

Remember, it is Trey Gowdy who will be leading the House Select Committee into what really happened in Benghazi. Liberals fear that Gowdy, a highly successful prosecutor, will uncover the truth.

That is exactly why threats of harm have been made against Congressman Gowdy. Liberals want the truth to remain hidden so they can protect Obama and Hillary Clinton from facing the consequences of their actions.

POLITICO reports:

The U.S. Capitol Police are investigating threatening emails against Rep. Trey Gowdy, the South Carolina Republican recently tapped to lead a special panel probing the Benghazi terrorist attacks.

The investigation comes after POLITICO reporters and journalists at other outlets received two emails on Tuesday warning that Gowdy would be harmed because of his role in investigating the 2012 attacks.

The Capitol Police would not comment on the scope of the investigation but Officer Shennell Antrobus confirmed that there is “an active, open investigation.”

This is not the first time Gowdy has been threatened. As Politico also reported, “In 2012, a woman approached Gowdy with a gun while he was sitting in his car in Spartanburg, S.C.”

[H/T: Washington Times]

We hope the Capitol Police get to the bottom of these threats. This is a serious matter, both because Gowdy was threatened and because it was likely an attempt to dissuade him from getting to the truth.

Gowdy will not back down, and neither will we. Stay tuned for developments in this story.

If you support Congressman Gowdy’s investigation and think these threats against Gowdy are reprehensible, please like and share this on Facebook or Twitter!

If Gowdy wants to be AG, then why oh why is he a co-sponsor of Boehner’s Amnesty for Illegal Alien Invaders from Mexico Bill?

These 30 million un-registered Democrat voters from corrupt and Socialist Mexico will insure that Democrats never lose a National Election again!

No, I mean it literally. Look at Bosnia during and directly after the war. When the SHTF here, financially, militarily and or governmentally, that’s our future. And as a nation that thinks they will just cell phone their way to delivered pizza when the store runs out of food, we are far less ready to deal with the actual reality of ‘evil’.

People poo pooh the idea. But I am not sure what they THINK is going to happen on our current course.

The Road Warrior mentality to me is the acceptance that ruthless justice is the prevailing modis operandi of most groups.

Mad Max has his brand of justice. The bad groups he faces do also. I’m not saying they’re equivalent, but this is what it boils down to IMO.

So flash back to now. We have someone threatening ultimate justice on the guy to lead up the investigation.

To me, that is the personification of the Mad Max justice mentality. It wouldn’t likely be Max’s, but it’s still ultimate justice Mad Max brand movies style.

Maybe you’re looking more for a society wide melt down, to resemble the society in the Mad Max Genre. If that’s where you’re headed, I understand your reluctance to buy into me saying we might already be there.

When Gowdy is AG he can bring the full force of the FBI and others into these investigations.

Maybe so. But do you trust the FBI and the others you speak of?

I certainly don't.

I have lost hope in stopping the flow of illegals or deporting those caught here. I live in a state (CA) where you can go to DMV and get a license if you’re here illegally, instead of being detained and deported for doing so.

I guess I have given up on the issue (reaching for a can of spinach).

I can see when you’re getting at. And overall I would tend to agree. But also, it is just typical historical liberal behavior. Kill the opposition. Hundreds of millions of dead across the globe testify to the reality of it.

As to where this is heading and why I look at the bigger sense of it...

I fully believe we will see more threats and threats followed through on as the Dems lose power regardless of how we define it. Because that’s what they do. Whether it’s lynching blacks by the Klan, or Chairman Mao or Stalin or the Unibomber. When leftists do what leftists do for power and control, people die.

Naturally, we will fight back once a certain pain threshold is hit. And it won’t be soon. Leftists will rack up a large body count before people decide that they are in REAL ‘PERSONAL’ danger and abandon the “Some day my prince will come’ fairytale that someone will ride in on an M1A1 to save them. And all that time of can kicking will see the situation fall further into chaos. By the hour.

People who yesterday went to the polls and cast votes, in a primary, for Bhoner despite his having challengers to his right, are not going to saddle up at the start of a real fight.

And thus, ultimately, the full blown Road Warrior scenario.

WRONG!

HE-WHO measures his success at “Fundamentally transforming the United States of America” by how much collateral damage HE-WHO has caused.

Thus, Obamacare has been a resounding success for HE-WHO, - - - well, that is only 8 million of the Middle Class forced off of the Insurance plans they liked.

Yup, HE-WHO has caused millions more to lose their jobs, Jobs, JOBS.

I understand you point too Norm, and I agree your scenario looks destined to play out.

You know, I think you’re right. I missed the implications of that all too simple question that Gowdy tagged as his number one question.

I was over broad, thinking the whole Obama/Hillary Middle East Policy was on the line, as Ben Rhodes exposed in his email to Susan Rice. I thought that was the number one question.

I am beginning to think now that they really may have actually been running guns, as the conspiracy theorists suggested all along.

Maybe Gowdy has reason to think so too. Something explosive is really at risk, as indicated by all the hysterics.

Death threats? On Trey? I think they better not.

” or their brains scattered like in the movie Scanners.”

I was thinking that it would be more likely that their heads would _IM_plode, due the high vacuum created by the tiny and ever-shrinking brain inside.
