Was this reported the authorities? Email can be traced in some cases and making these threats public will go a ways towards making them ineffective.

It is hard to believe this was never reported by any of the media outlets (unless I missed it totally). Also the way this was written there seems to be no distinction between the Rep and the Dems when it comes to who was threatened.

Not even sure I believe this.

It’s easier for you to believe that a conservative would lie about getting death threats, than to believe that the MSM would bury that kind of story?

The MSM was totally in the tank for the unions. And many of the “authorities” up in Wisconsin are still under Dem influence.

I know at least a couple of threatening emails were traced...as I recall one was traced back to a teacher from Racine.

Not being made up from nothing, you know.

The “union organizers” in Wisconsin have been doing just this sort of thing for years, and it is not confined only to the holders of state elective offices. It is also practiced against MANY local school boards, against county elected officials, and against the management teams of manufacturing and service companies.

Some places, the threats are simply laughed out the door, and nothing much happens. But then, these were not in the union strongholds of Madison and Milwaukee, and some of the other major “Rust Belt” manufacturing places roughly south and east of a line running from Green Bay to about Janesville. That area has always been a stronghold of “progressives”, first as the supporters of the La Follette dynasty (emphasis on “nasty”), then as the Progressive party was absorbed into the Democrats, the Pat Lucey-Gaylord Nelson branch of the party, and with a dynasty of their own. They even had their own major journal, the Madison-based Capital Times, a blatantly pro-Socialist periodical that was always to the left of even the Milwaukee Journal (now Journal-Sentinel). The other relatively large paper in the area, the Wisconsin State Journal, was once representative of the Republican (not conservative) point of view, but they have become a timid “me-too” echo of what the others blast across their headlines.

So you will never hear anything of the antics of the massive left-wing conspiracy in the local news, and if it isn’t local, it sure won’t make the national. The death threats are probably more nearly close to being carried out than not, as several legislators have chosen to resign, rather than to find out what happens to their homes, or businesses, or families. Others, well, conform. And it matters not if the legislator is Democrat or Republican, the same implicit threat is there, like a pistol pointed at your lower extremities beneath the table.

“Email can be traced in some cases...”

It wasn’t reported becaue the emails were probably traced back to:

1.) The White House
2.) DNC headquarters
or
3.) Public union HQ

According to the left stream media there can be no crimes committed by any of these.

The reason the death threats were not properly investigated and prosecuted is, the District Attny of Dane County is a former Gov.Doyle appointee and was hand picked as the lefty-ist of the leftys. He does not prosecute death threats against any conservatives, even our Governor.

He is also the DA that DOES let the bogus lawsuits go forward in Madison, that have suspended our Voter ID Law (just in time for our recall election!) and he also let suits go forward that delayed ACT 10 (collective public union bargaining) from being implemented when it was passed. This gave union thugs time to quickly pass extended contracts with school districts with the old under the table sweetheart deals before the law could go through the courts and take effect.

The Dane DA and Dane judges are tyrants ruling against the will of the people, and they nullify every law with a few strokes of the pen.

WI Supreme Court Justice Prosser is once again under attack in the courts because of this tyranny too. He already proved he was the one attacked,not unJustice Bradley, but he is again facing charges because the judicial review board or some such commie controlled board wants to harrass him some more.

The left stacked the courts and DA’s office, so if and when conservatives took power they would be able to delay or stop us.

Conservative talk radio hosts are also under death threats (Vicki McKenna for one). Nothing is being done by “authorities”. Even when the thug is located, nothing is done.

Conservatives have no protections other than what we provide ourselves with the 2nd Amendment.

If Ron Johnson were making this stuff up, the Leftist media would demand proof so they could embarrass Johnson. But, of course, the Leftist media knows that this went on and will say nothing. So maybe you should carefully watch the WI news this week and see if the Leftist media challenges Johnson. If they do not challenge Johnson, you will have real time and very overt evidence of media bias, as if we need more evidence at this point.

Not even sure I believe this.

ABC, CBS, MSNBC, NBC and NPR Ignore Death Threats to Wisconsin Republicans

AP Treats Arrest of Wis. Woman Issuing Death Threats to Legislators As Local Story

Wisconsin vote spurs death threat, protests, legal questions

Google or Bing is your friend.

Btw, you're kinda mouthy for a n00b. Just saying.
