I'm just amazed that someone would have the guts to try and piggyback a bill in on somebody else's tragedy as a backdrop. Seems to be poor taste to me unless the person who got shot consented.

Then again, we are talking politicians...

Pennsylvania Rep. Robert Brady, a Democrat from Philadelphia, told CNN that he also plans to take legislative action. He will introduce a bill that would make it a crime for anyone to use language or symbols that could be seen as threatening or violent against a federal official, including a member of Congress.

Imagine the irony of this. Rep. Giffords just read the First Amendment on the floor of the House three or four days ago, and now this bozo wants to pass an unconstitutional law that restricts speech. We have got to get the people of this country to understand that they cannot elect idiots like this. They are destroying this country.
