Those peace loving civil liberals.

Another one of the left wing nutjobs has gone off the deep end yet again. I wonder if the normal rank and file lefties know just how often something like this happens?

"I would tie Mitch McConnell and John Boehner, our esteemed Republican leaders, to the back of a Chevy pickup truck and drag them around a parking lot until they saw the light on gun control," he wrote. "And if that didn’t work, I’d adopt radical measures," he continued.

• Repeal the Second Amendment, the part about guns anyway. It’s badly written, confusing and more trouble than it’s worth. It offers an absolute right to gun ownership, but it puts it in the context of the need for a “well-regulated militia.” We don’t make our militia bring their own guns to battles. And surely the Founders couldn’t have envisioned weapons like those used in the Newtown shooting when they guaranteed gun rights. Owning a gun should be a privilege, not a right.

• Declare the NRA a terrorist organization and make membership illegal. Hey! We did it to the Communist Party, and the NRA has led to the deaths of more of us than American Commies ever did. (I would also raze the organization’s headquarters, clear the rubble and salt the earth, but that’s optional.) Make ownership of unlicensed assault rifles a felony. If some people refused to give up their guns, that “prying the guns from their cold, dead hands” thing works for me."

A few weeks ago it was old crazy Harry Belafonte wanting Obama to rule like a third world dictator and jail republicans, now Donald Kaul gets into the act.

Hell, if he's that angry I am willing to meet him to discuss his position. He can bring his pry bar.

He'd have to use it to pry your boot out of his ass.

Now, Mr. Books, I just want to give him a big hug. I think his mother never did that when he was a child. She only liked him as a friend.

That oughta pi$$ off a lot of good Iowans.

Civil discourse is very important. Those who lose their cool and issue violent threats do their side great harm. I imagine that federal law enforcement officials will be knocking on his door soon.

How can one rationally respond to irrational thought?

Yeah. To offer him an Ojob as Minister of Internal Compliance maybe.

In a debate I'd say, "Surely you don't mean that. To threaten violence is a very vile thing and it weakens your case."
As I understand it the best strategy is to appear reasonable to people listening to the debate. They are the ones whose minds can be changed by our reasonable, level-headed arguments.

You ever watch one of those old movies where someone applies an open-handed horizontal strike to a hysterical subject?

Statements like this precipitate those actions.
