In recent days, we have become alarmed and disheartened by bullying tactics, threats of violence, and death threats by a few who disagree with the decision of Speaker Anthony Rendon to postpone the advancement of SB 562.
Well Dems, it ain't the NRA - types who are threatening you with violence. Its coming from your rabid, out of control left flank.

The campaign for universal health care has also adopted some grisly imagery, targeted at Rendon, in recent days. Over the weekend, the head of the nurses’ union, RoseAnn DeMoro, circulated on social media an illustration depicting Rendon stabbing California in the back.
Some of Rendon’s critics have gone much further.
"I pray someone checks his schedule for baseball practice,” read one ominous Monday post on Twitter in response to Rendon, referencing a shooting this month in Washington that seriously injured House Majority Whip Steve Scalise while the Republican team was practicing for the annual congressional baseball game.
Of course, the union is playing the "shift the blame game".
Chuck Idleson, a spokesman for the California Nurses Association, said “obviously, no one that we know was involved” in making any such threats. He dismissed the matter as a “coordinated campaign” by Rendon and his corporate donors to steer media coverage away from the speaker’s decision and its implications for California.
“There are real death threats out there,” he said, “for people who are facing a loss of health care.”
So, not its the Dems in Cali that are going to kill people by denying them health benefits. Where have we heard this line of BS before?
Sad state of affairs when this becomes commonplace in political discourse.
