David Sirota receives death threat after CNN appearance..
Edited on Sun Sep-13-09 10:24 PM by Wetzelbill
From Twitter: David Sirota just received a death threat. I hope the GOP stops eliminationist rhetoric. It's frightening. We aren't all enemies, you know? I will also keep posting on it if more info comes out. http://twitter.com/billthebutcher2 -WB


davidsirota Just received a full-on death threat for my CNN appearance discussing racial undertones of the tea party protests. Not cool.

Thanks for all the supportive tweets post-death-threat. These are dark times - but we cannot let extremists back us down.

Police just came after I reported the death threat. They responded very quickly - and were helpful. Really appreciated it.

On edit:

Not 100 percent sure but I think this is the appearance he's referring to: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YVZPlFdPwIQ

Thanks Eleny for posting it: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=385x370796

15. No they're not. DUers have said over and over that it's not about race...
And they would never lie.

9. Please be careful
The GOP has created this, and it's fed by a festering hate. I have been watching my back a little more these days. Steering clear of politics. One word or gesture could spark a shit storm. Everyone is riding on their last nerve.

The GOP has a death-grip control of this shit, and it's straining the leash.

17. The meek shall inherit the world. That said, the fundamentalist have
spun themselves into anything but.... The driving force behind this spinning is a well orchestrated group of investors who cannot afford to have peace among the working people. "money trumps peace"-GWB
