Remember yesterday when House Minority Whip Eric Cantor (R-VA) was all, Democrats need to stop talking about the violence against them because it will only beget more violence, and besides, "Just recently I have been directly threatened. A bullet was shot through the window of my campaign office in Richmond this week, and I have received threatening emails"? Turns out that bullet was "an act of random gunfire," according to the Richmond Police Department. Which happens. Especially when you've got really lax gun control laws.
Anyone who's been to Richmond can attest that random gunfire is the standard form of address in that city.
JINX.
My first reaction to Cantor trying to say HE TOO WAS A VICTIM was to ask, "Has he ever *BEEN* to Richmond?"
*fires gunshot*
Democrat bullets.
Nazi Ratzi issued a firm denial that he was even in Richmond that day and produced a receipt showing he'd dropped his red Prada pumps at the shoemaker around the corner from the Vatican to be resouled.
If I owned a newspaper, the style guide would require the use of "Nazi Ratzi" instead of whatever else they call that old queen.
He also answers to "Mr. Tibbs".
To maintain world karma, for every random act of kindness, there must be a random act of stray bulletry.
It's a good thing I don't own stock in kindness.
Eric Cantor does not see the difference between a random bullet breaking a window in a room he never uses and someone trying to burn a Democratic representative alive in his home. And he's smart! He wears glasses.
Also, a Jew. So he knows. He knows.
So the apparently-freak-coincidence of a bullet going through Cantor's window is somehow disqualifying to his complaint, but all the Democrat Congressmen whining about violence who haven't suffered anything much worse than being yelled at, they're OK?
Also, Richmond is overwhelmingly a Democrat-voting city, and the ward the bullet probably was fired from usually votes more than 90% Democrat. Not that it's Democrat plot or anything, but the idea that we're a bunch of "teabagging rednecks", to borrow from Ms. Garofalo, is off-base.
Yo, dudes, please don't misunderstand, plenty of us here in Richmond would shoot at Eric Cantor on purpose. Poster above me knows what's up.
You're kinda making Cantor's point for him, huh?
Er, at least in his second paragraph, he does. First paragraph sounds a bit too GOP-friendly for me.
