    Trump is simply a reaction to 30+ years of Democratic nastiness. He’s the first Republican to give it back, which shocks a lot of people.

    Have you ever watched “A Christmas Story” where Ralphie finally has had enough and he beats up the bully? Trump is Ralphie for the Republicans.

    "per law enforcement"?

    Which EXACT Agencies have verified whether these threats were "credible"?

    Please link me to Specific Law Enforcement Agencies.

    It should be an easy task, if what you are posting is true

    (Press Releases, etc.)

    Because if CAN'T, you are posting MISINFORMATION.

    Every article on this contains (virtually) the same paragraph:

    Republican Sen. Susan Collins says she’s getting death threats after her vote to acquit President Donald Trump at his impeachment trial, saying three of them were deemed “credible” and are being investigated.

    Thus, are you basing your claim on anything other than Collins' HEARSAY?

    Please link me to the statement of any Official Law Enforcement Agency that has Independently Verified the "Credibility" of these "Claimed Threats".

    You can't. Because no agency has verified Collins' Hearsay.

    Nice try, though.

    Carry on.:salute:

    Law enforcement is not required to verify anything with the public on these matters.

    Drop the conspiracy theories.

    Wow.

    So, you are admitting that you posted Misinformation (based on Collins' Unverified HEARSAY)?

    Cool. That is all that I wanted to know.

    (Thanks for manning up, and admitting that NO Independent Confirmation Exists).

    And, back to the larger issue of Collins and Maine:

    Does Collins actually think that these Fantastical (Unverified Hearsay) Reports of "Death Threats" are actually going to help her in November?

    Politically, the best thing she could've done was to have voted like Romney.

    Hitching herself to Trump's Wagon seems like a sure way to LOSE Her Seat.

    Law enforcement is under no obligation to verify anything publicly.

    Indeed. But I find conservative parties call out and disown the extreme views while the left are moving as a block towrds then. In fact, crazy is woven right through left wing politics these days.

    Can't find any... I guess that means it's not happening....

    :eekeyes:

    P.S. Nowhere in your link does it say Former Senator Collins currently requires law enforcement at her home..

    I think Australians have a much more inhumane record then we do.. At least we armed our competition. On the other hand the Uerapeon settlers preferred theirs as fish in a barrel "So to speak" and chucking spears, rock and running while they took a round in the back :roll:

    It is weird how you draw some distinction between those who settled Australia and those who settled the US which was also a British Colony and destination for convicts of England.

    Well we have covered that before, I just didn't want to make the Eurapeons out to be real monsters is all! But since you brought it out to the table of truth, you certainly are right ;) :thumbsup::rock_slayer::roflol::wierdface:
