My friend Tuck over at Miscellany Blue finds that NH State Rep. JR Hoell is mightily miffed at the idea of Scott Brown as NH's next US Senator. Ole JR and the freedumb/libertea crowd aren't peeved that Brown is a carpetbagger from out of state, who has never lived in NH, and seems to be something of a lightweight. No, they're annoyed because he's not a gibbering gun nut, like them.
Hoell, in an interview with the mighty intellects at Granite Grok, had this to say:
We’re not here to threaten anybody. We’re here standing on our soapbox as opposed to standing with our ammo box in hand to make a point politically. The message needs to get out that Scott Brown does not represent New Hampshire.
If things continue the way they are, there may be a day or a time where firearms and ammo are necessary. It happened in the Revolutionary War. I’d like to think we’re not there yet, but as things continue to unravel, that may be the next step.
Allow me to translate: "we aren't here to threaten anybody - BUT - unless the small crowd of pinheads I hang out with get their way on every issue, you bet we're gonna start shooting. For your own good, of course."
Big h/to to Tuck for listening to that interview so that the rest of us don't have to.

I can't wait to see John DiStaso's breaking news update and Drew Cline's huffy editorial condemning Hoell.
"as things begin to unravel"
Sir, the only thing unraveling is your sanity, a moderate Republican who does not share your views 100% is not a reasonable basis for an armed revolt.
