To call a liberal, or a conservative, “scum” is usually something which arises from a disordered mind.

I wouldn’t call a Trump supporter “scum.”

Threatening to go to someone’s residence to take pictures is sort of.....threatening....

The woman didn’t rob someone. Or sell drugs.

She just went topless in her yard, playing frisbee. People who rat people out like that don’t have better things to do.

The homeless woman probably should have been taken to the hospital for observation.

What if someone's neighbor is playing music out in their yard way too loud, would making a noise complaint be ratting them out?

But all she was doing was playing frisbee. She wasn’t playing her music too loud.

I put those two things in totally different categories.

I just don’t think the woman did something that was so egregious.

That’s just my opinion.

Not enough, especially, to deserve those comments on the Internet.

I think that the person asking for the address was trying to be more sarcastic than threatening. If they really wanted to weird her out they would have gotten her address from the courthouse and set up a camera near her house without saying anything.

What I figure person's pov could be that their neighbor was doing something they thought was visually and or morally offensive and against the law. I think it was an understandable knee jerk reaction. The woman did say that sometime later she sunbathed topless and the neighbors didn't say anything about it.

And hey she got to laugh her way to the bank to deposit $50,000.

Personally if I saw the same thing I might be a little surprised at first, but then my thoughts would quickly shift to meh whatever.

Certainly not cool. But also not something that should be blown way out of proportion.

It seems like the politicized crux of this is, 'those violent psycho conservatives were threatening to beat her up kill her, just for playing frisbee'.

You know like the 16 year old boy that people made threats of psychical violence against and threatened to bomb his school because he wore a hat they didn't like. Except those kinds of threats actually took place.

Total lie.

Making death threats against some person in a MAGA hat is just as egregious as some conservative making death threats against a liberal.

I think his point is more about how no actual violent threat was made in this case more than comparing liberals to conservatives.

Any threat over the Internet is alarming to me.

I posted this article because right wing nutjobs threatened her with harm and called her liberal scum playing frisbee on her own property.

It's funny because right wingers are the ones who claim American freedom is being taken away yet they don't seem to mind curtailing other people's personal freedom...hypocrisy on display

No one threatened her with harm and no one made death threats as the title of your article claims. Stop lying.

She specified the threats that were made which I posted. None had anything to do with harming her or threatening her life.

I'm going to have to conclude that you didn't read your own thread.

Who is lying? You are lying. Saying death threats were made is a lie, it is something that you made up.

This is why I am trying to get the hell out of Texas. Gov. Abbott wants to ban anything he considers to be "un-Christian."

Example:

https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2019/9/3/20847447/unsolicited-dick-pics-texas-law-harassment

This law was never about combating harassment. It was entirely about legislating morality.

He won't legalize marijuana, and would bring back Prohibition if he could.
