Thank you to the writer of the last post. I am very unclear on the legality of statements like Mr. Baker's in this Post 9/11 (TM), post Columbine, post Virginia Tech world. I did not inform law enforcement authorities because I would like to maintain my belief (possibly fantasy) that the Constitution is still the rule book on this.
My thought was that the power of free speech was the best defense against some whacko picking up Mr. Baker's repugnant suggestion and acting on it. By broadcasting his words to our local legislators, the City Council and the School Committee I thought that they could make the decision whether or not any police involvement was called for. I also thought they should be informed as to the writings of the former School Committee candidate and member of the Cambridge Republican City Committee elected by the citizens in last February's election.
And Ms, Imrie, as for your contention that I am full of crap, I am Looking forward (NOT) to a colonoscopy as part of my 50 year 500,000 mile check-up. That should answer that question once and for all.
