   Zerbisias is an obscure columnist and her work is not widely followed. She obviously decided that to improve upon her anemic readership, she had to do something outrageous. And what could be more outrageous than to call for the assassination of a conservative writer! To even hint at such a thing is despicable. Then she makes things even worse by lying about the unambiguous meaning of her hateful words. She said she “wished the marksmen would take @….” There is nothing ironic about those words and no dual meaning. A “marksman” is defined as a “proficient shooter of firearms”. So when Zerbisias says she wishes the “marksmen” would take aim at Michelle Malkin, she is saying in clear and plain English that she wants a skilled shooter to take aim. And her pathetic comment about Dick Cheney just shows even further what a pathetic liar Zerbisias is. Dick Cheney gained firearms lore (or infamy) by shooting his firearm and striking an elderly gentleman named Harry. So when you say you wished Cheney fired the weapon, then obviously you are referring to having a human being shot. I would almost relish the chance to have a debate with Zerbisias since it would be so easy to make minced meat out of her. Hopefully, the border control guys will keep this creep north of the border.

   Well Michelle, just another tolerant, peace-loving, kumbaya leftist wishing death on someone she disagrees with.

   Amazing how much hate-filled spittle and venom comes out of the people who claim WE are hateful.

    Strike One: She publicly wished for the murder of a blogger/political celebrity that dared to have an opinion that differed from hers and she had the gall to broadcast that on Twitter as a voice of the Toronto Star.

    Strike Two: She didn’t even have the courage to stand behind what she said, but that doesn’t necessarily surprise me. It also won’t surprise me to hear that she is somehow the victim in all of this.

    Strike Three: She’s a hypocritical Canadian.

    Hate is only attributed to an opposition of the left’s point of view.

    I will not blame Canada per-Se, but ultimately, when this hate speech is ignored, yet the hate of extremists against conservations is covered up or otherwise hidden, the responsibility lies with those who have the power to enforce the rules and do nothing.

    On a similar note, in the USA, this crime is also being perpetrated and with an even greater furor since the Liberal Democrats have seized control.

    The use of the word “seized” is intended with the literal sense due to the crimes of ACORN, Obama’s willful disregard of campaign contribution monitoring, Minnesota’s fraudulent election, continuous blatant lies against conservative politicians, extreme Media propaganda against conservatives and so forth.

    Hate speech is always hate speech and should be everyone’s right as long as violence and intimidation is not advocated. In this case, violence has been advocated, but in the case of revealing the truth that the 17 criminals were Muslim extremists, no hate was present or can be proved.

    If you disagree with the left or any of their protected deviants, you will be labeled as a hateful extremist and be subjected to criminal prosecution, especially after the Federal Hate Crimes law is passed in the US.

    Yes, ignore this woman. She is insignificant. However, her actions demonstrate the real threat to humanity and peace and therefore justice.

    I have been to Canada a couple times…both in the West (Vancouver) and the East (Montreal) I love Canada and wouldn’t judge the whole country by a few wackjobs. I would say, however, that I felt more “at home” and comfortable in Vancouver. There were a bunch of elderly “hippie” types living up there who hadn’t quite gotten over the whole drug-culture thing even though they were in their 60′s. But all in all, nice, friendly people who did not go all “elitist” on us. Montreal was a different story. Speak French? You were o.k. No French? Their noses reached for the sky. It was embarrasing…for them, not us. When we drove across the border, back into Vermont, I felt like I had just returned home from a foreign and unfriendly country. Sad, because Montreal is really a beautiful place. I live in Minnesota and we have canoed in the boundary waters which we share with Canada. The most peaceful place on earth.

    Back in the early 80′s I was working for a small company that had a client in Calgary. During one of our trips up there, this client (that had a large number of interests in the oil & gas industry) was suggesting that the Western U.S. and Western Canada should merge into one country. Both countries have people in the East telling people in the West how to manage the natural resources. Made sense at the time . . .still does.

    So has this woman been charged with a hate crime by the free speech police? I would think if Mark Steyn could be accused of hate speech by writing a book about the islamic threat, advocating that somone be shot, would qualify. Granted Mark was acquitted, so I’m sure a lefty like this would be also, but still. . . .
