Sharron Angle, the Tea Party candidate turned Republican primary winner in Nevada, has taken heat for a number of extreme affiliations and policy positions. One of the more outlandish was a statement she made during a radio interview last January in which she floated the idea that the public would bring down an out-of-control Congress with "Second Amendment remedies."

Angle: I feel that the Second Amendment is the right to keep and bear arms for our citizenry. This not for someone who's in the military. This not for law enforcement. This is for us. And in fact when you read that Constitution and the founding fathers, they intended this to stop tyranny. This is for us when our government becomes tyrannical...

Manders: If we needed it at any time in history, it might be right now.

Angle: Well it's to defend ourselves. And you know, I'm hoping that we're not getting to Second Amendment remedies. I hope the vote will be the cure for the Harry Reid problems.

3. if it turns out to be a bagger -- this isn't different from mcveigh or the abortion doctor shootings

the right wing delivers it's message forcibly - knowing it will be picked up by the random person and acted upon.

with enough room to allow for distancing.

5. How Many of Angle's Party

ever came out and disapproved of that rhetoric.

If it turns out to be a rightwingnut shooting, I can just hear the other side talking about the violent left. After all, we go out shooting all the time. An that is because we so believe there shouldn't be gun laws.:sarcasm:
