Rightwing terror in Missouri

Adam Peck of ThinkProgress stated:

Five Democratic State Senators in Missouri discovered large, orange crosshair stickers over their office nameplates on Tuesday in the Capitol Building in Jefferson. The targets included all four Democratic women in the state senate, as well as the Democratic minority leader. One Republican state representative also found a similar sticker outside his office.

It is ironic that these acts were likely committed in order to coerce the targeted Senators into voting to block the implementation of the Obama health care reform legislation. It is ironic because the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) is health care reform a Republican ought to love. But these facts do not impress America’s reactionary element. They just hate Obama.
