The tried and true method employed when the left would rather an issue either die down or go away is to change the subject.  The aftermath of the Obamacare debacle foisted on an unwilling population was dealt with in typical big D Democrat fashion, triumphalism, lack of decorum, and talking smack.  The dudes got all kinds of style but no kind of class.

Now rather than carping about how violence was visited on our constitution we are supposed get all concerned by a bunch of rednecks in a double-wide.  Really?  I for one hope those yahoos get all the punishment dealt to William Ayres who actually took violence on police beyond the planning stage.  People died, privileged Billy went to grad school.

I am not one to agitate for violence but had these jerks, Obama and Democrats not the rednecks, pulled a stunt like this in an earlier period the reaction would have been more along these lines ..

So all this pseudo concern over the "heightened rhetoric" means nothing beyond how it successfully diverts attention away from the reason people are so pissed off in the first place.  When you can't win the argument on it's merits demonize opponents and change the subject.  Classic lefty tactics. 

That said, should a random brick find it's way through any Democrats campaign office window it's not as though the reaction is disproportionate to the reason behind the toss - - call it the physics of politics.  Just consider it the natural gag reflex of when you jam a piece of socialist shit down capitalist peoples throat and deal with it.  And please, spare me the righteous indignation.  (I, after all, live in the district where GOP get-out-the-vote vans tires were slashed by the son of the victorious congresswoman, so around these parts a flying brick ain't that big of a deal, so long as you are not white and are Democrat)

In the end what I find most intriguing about the negative reaction to this constitutional assault is it's restraint - - so far.  The shelf life of a brick is pretty much infinite however.
