Nationally networked homofascists have made death threats and arsonist threats against legal business owners.

Thing about RICO is you can take ALL of their money (not just ill gotten gains) BEFORE trial (compromising ability to pay for legal defense). Waiting for the Clintons to be RICOed.

"This is getting scary.

You are missing the upside of all the Socialist hatred. How much easier is it to generate the contempt it requires to destroy a bully?

Our line goes back to the 96 Virginia Rangers serving Dan Morgan/Quebec 1775.

I love the smell of musket balls in the morning.

As long as we get to do it slow and painful. Just like the drip drip drip of socialism these pukes have suffered on the populace.

AFTER of course the prerequisite tar and feathers in the blocks on the square.

Or we can just begin with the Jack Bauer approach. Start with their families... oh yea, it is about time...

There must be a price paid (and it should be personal as well as political). If you just undo the damage without penalty, so that the persons and agenda are no worse off than if they hadn’t tried to rape your civil rights, then where’s the disincentive to do so. You try and you succeed or you fail, but in no case do you end up worse off than if you hadn’t tried.

It will happen soon enough. By then they won’t even need the RICO statutes, though they might be trotted out as an excuse the way the Soviets grabbed anyone they wanted to grab and charged them with Anti State Activities.

Sheldon Whorehouse should be removed from office and imprisoned.

The guy is a freakin’ moonbat nutjob.

Sheldon Cooper makes far more sense.

well, its the global warming proponents who are pushing for trillions of dollars more taxes with the usual graft and skimming and kickbacks as government has never collected trillions of dollars from us poor taxpayers without such things as either INTENDED or at least resultant

so it would be far more appropriate to use RICO to prosecute the global warming proponents

the opponents are proposing no new taxes (or resulting graft and theft)

.... Well .... the way I see it ..... Liberals are absolutely known to only understand withing the realm of emotions and feelings. They shun common sense.

.... It is time that the RIGHT starts hitting these feeble minds with a few facts!!!! For instance Click on this link for an interesting GIANT revelation release a few days ago ......

..... Hmmmmm Could THIS be the Missing link to Climate Change and Solar Activity?

..... Heck .... If this article is true ... then ....

Questions:....... does it have any affect on the earths atmosphere? Also: ... if there is plasma ejected from the sun ... does it affect these plasmatic structures in the earths atmosphere and therefore .... climate?

...... Wake up Folks .... for Pete's Sake ..... FIGHT BACK!

..... The survival of AMERICA is at stake!

I have a -political opinion- that global warming is a fraud. I will try to convince others of my belief. If someone tries to arrest me for that, they and the people who sent them instantly become NKVD, Gestapo, ISIS, or Mao’s cultural revolutionaries.

I will defend myself with any means at hand against such legitimate targets.

Fed Mouthpiece Jon Hilsenrath Furious “Stingy” US Consumers Refuse To Buy The “Recovery” Propaganda
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2015-06-02/fed-mouthpiece-jon-hilsenrath-furious-stingy-us-consumers-refuse-buy-recovery-propag

Does this mean that “Recovery” skeptics will be prosecuted under RICO, too?
