"What I can share with you at this time is information has been referred to the Indiana State Police that alleges threatening emails have been sent to some Indiana delegates that will be participating in the Republican National Convention in Cleveland, OH," said Capt. David Bursten, a state police spokesman. "Presently the Indiana State Police is reviewing the information to determine if it may cross the line of free speech and could be considered criminal in nature."

Shouldn’t be hard to trace who sent the email. Wonder if it will be like the BLM people threatening themselves for show. Regardless if these are indeed threats someone needs punished.

If Craig posted that comment on face book he has to expect to be called out. Speech is free but hate as he quoted will get a lot of flack. I, as an Indiana voter am discussed to see this in one of our politicans and I will post his speech on my face book page. This can be handled my way too. I’ll be represented too and give my Hoosier a heads up.

Hey trick editor, you took that out of context and you knew that. He was talking about the Democrats and those two sentences are together in context with what was said before it.

But then the gravy train is coming off the tracks so ya gotta make up stuff. Maybe you can get a job with Coric, since you like editing and taking out of context so much.

That’s the way I see it...Cruz needs to be put in a ‘padded cell with Amanda Carpenter’....or ‘candy wrapper’....

Does “lobbied in person” include Trumps favorite response of getting punched in the face? When Stone made the comment he said nothing about lobbying in person. He has a history of being a henchman, so it is not surprising people would interpret his comment as intimidation.

[[”Presently the Indiana State Police is reviewing the information to determine if it may cross the line of free speech and could be considered criminal in nature.”]]

Do they also plan to review the hateful nasty remarks that sharpton, farakan, and ilk say, and email, and spout about too?

[[That made him the target of an email from an angry supporter, reading: “You sorry (expletive)! I hope the worst for you and yours!”]]

and that differs from what several anti-cruz members on FR post over and over and over again how?

Your own candidate Trump told you up front that he would be bringing 'bad people you wouldn't like" to help him......(Gosh do you people ever listen to what Trump tells you!!).... Trumps operatives aren't being called "Fixer's" and "Plumbers" for nothing.

Trumps "fixer" Crony Paul Manafort Lobbied for the Saudis - and Specifically against Israel. These characters are worse than underworlds...and you Trump supporters haven't a clue the beast you've loosened by supporting him....

Just who do you think Trumps "our side" is???

Stone just wants to be able to “properly intimidate” those not predisposed to vote for his sugar daddy, Donald Trump.

True, Stoner isn’t “officially” on Donnie’s payroll. But you have to admit he sure is spending a lot of time and energy stirring the pot for Trump for it to be gratis.

Do you believe this? Folks going to Trump rallies have to endure thugs violating their access and free speech on a daily basis. And a few verbal threats (maybe) and authorities have to investigate.

“Craig Dunn, Chairman of the Republican Party in Howard County who’s running for Indiana’s 4th Congressional District, said that he’s been getting threatening messages on Facebook and elsewhere.”

Hell, I get "threatening messages" on Facebook and elsewhere just because I'm a conservative and not afraid to express my opinion, do I get worked up about it? Nope, I just read them and laugh as I clean my guns...

Threatening how? Did they just suggest that a delegate should do the right thing?

Police said they are investigating to see if they are threatening. That tells me they are not overtly so

This isn’t jury duty. Nothing wrong with delegates being reminded that voters want their voices heard

I’ll bet that in a few days, we’ll see the Indiana state police report that the threats were falsified.

False flag alert. I could think of a few freepers that I think are doing this... the Cruzbots.
