From a letter to the editor: "When a political movement preaches that government itself is the enemy; when it argues that the president of the United States may not be a citizen; when it brands political adversaries as “un-American” and serving a “socialist agenda”; when it asserts that citizens may take up “Second Amendment remedies” against a “tyrannical” government, and so forth, we have gone far past the point of heated political debate. When this rhetoric is condoned and embraced by candidates and officeholders of a mainstream political party (and its media allies), it gets a national platform and an aura of legitimacy. We ought to worry about the possible consequences. We certainly don’t know what motivated the obviously disturbed individual facing charges in Arizona. But we ought not to be shocked if it turns out that somewhere, at some time, some lunatic takes this rhetoric seriously and acts on it in some unthinkable way." Jonathan F. Horn
