Two men arrested for making threats against Republican congressmen
Good news: Police in New York and New Jersey have arrested two different individuals for making threats against Republican Congressmen.
- New Jersey: Man charged with making online threat against U.S. Rep. Chris Smith
- New York: Man arrested after leaving Scalise threatening voicemail
The first amendment allows you to say practically anything, except yelling “Fire!” in a theater and making direct threats of violence against another person. Both of these individuals violated the second restriction. Hopefully they will serve time for the violation.
This story however is important because, while leftist news advocates at CNN whine about being yelled at by Trump supporters, actual threats by the left against the right have been going on now for two to three years, non-stop, without anyone in those leftist news organizations apparently noticing.
Readers!
Every February I run a fund-raising drive during my birthday month. This year I celebrate my 72nd birthday, and hope and plan to continue writing and posting on Behind the Black for as long as I am able.
I hope my readers will support this effort. As I did in my November fund-raising drive, I am offering autographed copies of my books for large donations. Donate $250 and you can have a choice of the hardback of either Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8 or Conscious Choice: The origins of slavery in America and why it matters today and for our future in outer space. Donate $200 and you can get an autographed paperback copy of either. IMPORTANT! If you donate enough to get a book, please email me separately to tell me which book you want and the address to mail it to.
Please consider supporting my work here at Behind the Black. My analysis of space, politics, and culture, taken from the perspective of an historian, is almost always on the money and ahead of the game. For example, in 2020 I correctly predicted that the COVID panic was unnecessary, that the virus was apparently simply a variation of the flu, that masks were not simply pointless but if worn incorrectly were a health threat, that the lockdowns were a disaster and did nothing to stop the spread of COVID. Every one of those 2020 conclusions has turned out right.
Your help allows me to do this kind of intelligent analysis. I take no advertising or sponsors, so my reporting isn't influenced by donations by established space or drug companies. Instead, I rely entirely on donations and subscriptions from my readers, which gives me the freedom to write what I think, unencumbered by outside influences.
You can support me either by giving a one-time contribution or a regular subscription. There are four ways of doing so:
1. Zelle: This is the only internet method that charges no fees. All you have to do is use the Zelle link at your internet bank and give my name and email address (zimmerman at nasw dot org). What you donate is what I get.
2. Patreon: Go to my website there and pick one of five monthly subscription amounts, or by making a one-time donation.
3. A Paypal Donation or subscription:
4. Donate by check, payable to Robert Zimmerman and mailed to

One small step for man, one giant leap for leftists.
Hope this is a sign for the future. A return to the late 60s is not nice at all.
The same man who was arrested for threatening Scalise also made threats against Cathy McMorris Rodgers. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2018/08/02/ny-man-arrested-over-threats-to-gops-scalise-mcmorris-rodgers.html
It is rather amazing how the media treats Scalise even after he was almost assassinated, along with a bunch of other members of congress, by a Democrat. It was the largest assassination attempt in our country’s history.
To add to the examples of violence. An anti-SJW youtuber was attacked at Gen Con the other night. The Democrats feel morally obligated to engage in violence, so that is what is happening all over the country but somehow the media always says Republicans are the ones engaging in violence.
