The talking heads on ABC were laughing about this this morning. If this had been a conservative shooting the TV over something a democrat had said or done I wonder if their demeanor would have been the same.
Man Shoots TV and Holds Police at Bay All Night

According to the complaint, Cowan and his wife were watching "Dancing with the Stars" when Cowan jumped up and swore as Bristol Palin appeared, saying something about "the (expletive) politics." Cowan was upset that a political figure's daughter was on the show when he didn't think she was a good dancer, the complaint states.
Cowan went upstairs for about 20 minutes and returned, demanding his pistols, which had been taken by his daughter about a month ago for safety reasons. He was carrying a single-shot shotgun, which he loaded and fired into the television, according to the complaint.

When my GF wants to watch that show it makes me want to shoot the TV too.

If it were about the family of a prominent democrat, the Secret Service/FBI/ATF/NSA/CIA/TSB/ACORN/FNMA/HUD/FEMA/GM/SEC/CAIR/DOD/DHS/IRS/DMV would likely be investigating.

Crazy cheese heads. Probably still mad about Brett Favre.

Reportedly set off by Bristol Palin's appearance on "Dancing with the Stars," a rural Black Earth man shotgun-blasted his TV set and kept police at bay outside his home for 15 hours Monday and Tuesday before he surrendered.

Some people take tv way too seriously. It is a GAMESHOW!!! :screwy:

+1
Wife watches it

 

[CountryGun]

I only watch until Cheryl Burke gets kicked off. :yum:

 

[Melissa5]

Pardon me while I think about Maksim for a minute.

Brandy was a better dancer than Palin and she and Maks should have been in the finals. But, it didn't even occur to me to shoot the TV when they were kicked off and Palin got to stay.

I guess the daughter should have taken away his shotgun also.

 

[EJR914]

But us right-wing extremist are the dangerous ones, right?

 

[gunsmoker]

His wife said he threatened to kill her with the gun, too.
So that's why there was a SWAT standoff and why they made a big deal about this.
If all he did was shoot his TV, and he wasn't threatening people, or drunk, or crazy....


Elvis shot his TV. He didn't get arrested for it.

This fellow is no Elvis. Plus Elvis surrounded himself with people that protected him.

 

[politenessman]

just goes to show there are democrats with guns.

 

[Puffyfish]

That are apparently really pissed at the election turnouts.

 

[samman23]

The liberals are the ones I would really be afraid of with guns because they come up with some crazy scenarios about what people will do with guns which I think is self reflective.

LOS ANGELESâ€"The FBI is investigating a threatening letter containing white powder that was delivered to the "Dancing With the Stars" production office at CBS Studios on Friday.
"An initial field screening was negative for hazardous substances, but the letter will be transported to a regional lab for further testing," FBI spokeswoman Laura Eimiller said.

ABC news just reported it was addressed to Palin.
