Frank Sain's lawyer releases statement:

[El Supremo]

"We are deeply concerned about the government's retaliation against Mr. Sain for his protected First Amendment political speech. We appreciate Representative Rhonda Fields's service to our community; however, we remind you that Mr. Sain valiantly served his country as a decorated Iraqi war veteran. Representative Fields appears to be furthering her political agenda by trampling on Mr. Sain's constitutionally protected free speech in order to infringe on all Coloradans' Second Amendment rights."

Threatening someone's life is protected free speech? These are some really fucked-up dudes.

[Drale]

1. Why do people think "decorated Iraqi war veteran" automatically make someone a good person

and their racism or lack of apathy for mankind should be ignored?

2. Its just lawyer bullshit.

Every defendant is a fine upstanding citizen being mistakenly accused and malisciously prosecuted, according to their defense attorney.

3. What a fucking douchebag. I assume that he is a "responsible gun owner".

Or at least until he isn't.

[meow2u3]

4. Teabagger logic: terroristic threats are free speech*

*as long as the person making threats is white, male, batshit crazy fascist, and the threat is directed against women, minorities, and/or liberals/progressives/Democrats.
