The same liberals who demanded Sarah Palin be arrested for inciting violence seem to be silent about the conviction of Norman LeBoon, a Philadelphia man who posted an online video in which he threatened to kill Rep. Eric Cantor.
LeBoon donated to Barack Obama after Obama traveled to Phildelphia and told local Dems assembled at a June 14, 2008 rally "If they (Republicans) bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun...Because from what I understand folks in Philly like a good brawl."
Six days later LeBoon donated $250 to Obama, followed by a $255 contribution the next day.
Did Obama incite LeBoon to violence?
No. Obama is in no way responsible or related. Additionally free speech is unalienable in this country, a protection from government aggression with its roots in political expression.
But the connection is notable, as liberals exploited the tragic shooting of Rep. Danielle Giffords to demand those with differing political opinions be rounded up and arrested. They could at least be intellectually honest and consistent.
