I figured Hoffa used a poor choice of words, but thought I understood what he meant by them. And he further inflamed later in the week by reintegrating that he said what he meant. That could now be misconstrued as advocating violence.
When I say I’m coming at ya with all guns blazing, it usually means I think I have all the cards to win the game. It’s nothing more than a metaphor.

Conservatives MAY outnumber liberals, but moderates outnumber them both...combined! And us moderates don't like the extreme left any more than the extreme right. Many of us have had enough of the hope, change, and tea already.
Four in 10 Tea Party members are either Democrats or Independents, according to a new national survey.
The findings provide one of the most detailed portraits to date of the grassroots movement that started last year.
The national breakdown of the Tea Party composition is 57 percent Republican, 28 percent Independent and 13 percent Democratic, according to three national polls by the Winston Group, a Republican-leaning firm that conducted the surveys on behalf of an education advocacy group. Two-thirds of the group call themselves conservative, 26 are

Breitbart is actually a born again Liberal who saw the errors of his liberal ways. He also realized what the liberals were trying to do to this country.
So the next american revolution wont be about overthrowing a tyrannical regime, it will be a gun battle between liberals and conservatives, geez, your founding fathers would be rolling in their graves. Taking the 2nd amendment way out of context. Good luck shooting each other, may the biggest gun win, Yee frickin ha.

See how easy to is to start a fire? Everybody is so uptight, the simplest metaphor or bit of rhetoric gets misinterpreted as threats of physical violence. Be careful... you want to give them an excuse to impose martial law and seize your guns?

They're looting this country while you argue over idiots like Moore and Breitbart.

Speaking to a Massachusetts tea party group recently, conservative blogger Andrew Breitbart made some comments that are raising eyebrows online this week, telling the small gathering of Republicans that he sometimes wants to “fire the first shot.”
Is this a threat against libs? Sounds like it. I wonder who he would target first and how would he identify them as the "enemy"?
I also wonder how many of the ATS conservatives agree with him and Michael Savage that also thinks violence is an answer.
I would assume he was referring to that thug, Hoffa who threatened to take out the Tea Partiers. Breitbart is right... conservatives are armed and outnumber liberals by about 100 to 1.
Hmmmm... but it sure was a good thing those DEMOCRAT longshoremen in Washington were so peaceful and accomodating, weren't they? Hypcrite much? Or do you reserve it for ATS?
