Wait, “Threats against our public servants (Politicians) are against our democracy”? Didn’t Thomas Jefferson say “When tyranny becomes law, it is the duty to overthrow the government?”

[@ryan3630]

Not a threat at the Politicians, but more of a "promise" of actuality, of what will transpire against the body of government itself. If certain Politicians feel it's a threat against them, then that is proof that they no longer represent the people that elected them, and feel they are "the law", and are probably guilty of some misdoings. I know several senators that do not "fear" such "threats". Those that fear, clearly have something to hide, that they do not want people to see what they've actually been doing. Even more funny, is how certain Politicians are on video/record calling for the harassment of other politicians, simply because of their views differ from the one making such calls to action from their supporters. Why have these politicians been held accountable for their actions? To which, if it was a civilian making the exact same statement, would probably be fully prosecuted in any fashion they could, and have their lives destroyed as a result of it. Is it becoming clear for anyone else yet?

[@Bancheis]

They can't force her to incriminate herself. Answering the questions could lead to perjury charges. Also, she probably thinks she did nothing wrong. It's like in D&D when you have a Lawful Good Paladin and a Chaotic Good Rogue. The Paladin will stick to the law and tell the truth, even if he has to admit he was wrong about something in the past. He would go as far as to turn himself in to face the consequences. The Rogue on the other hand might break the law, steal something or kill someone, then argue that he did it to prevent an even greater evil, and can do more good outside of prison thus avoiding the consequences. It's the "For the greater good" argument that makes these people dangerous. Especially when they THINK they are doing good, and they might be, but they end up committing twice as much Evil to accomplish it.
