Thanks to U.S. Reps. Scott Rigell (VA-2), J. Randy Forbes (VA-4), Robert Hurt (VA-5), Bob Goodlatte (VA-6), and Morgan Griffith (VA-9) for standing with 87 Congressman in sending a letter to Attorney General Eric Holder over the growing concern of SWAT-ting to intimidate and silence political speech.
“Differences of opinion should enrich our lives, not divide us. Each American has the right to freely express his or her ideas and should not be subject to fear tactics like SWAT-ting, which run counter to the liberty that forms the bedrock of our great nation. These crimes are not to be tolerated and necessitate thorough examination at every level.”
Bearing Drift observed a National Bloggers Day of Silence Friday to raise awareness of the issue.
