Rather than have folks wonder what happened or draw unsavory conclusions, we made the choice to share the situation with people. I don't write the content on the website, but I do think it was a wise decision to let people in on what happened.<BR/><BR/>While it was most likely just someone acting foolishly with no intent to incite violence, I felt that it was the responsible thing to do to notify the police. I would recommend that course of action to anyone.Bridgethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17739605792421798234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9074091195541549550.post-71085124882018478132007-02-24T12:49:00.000-06:002007-02-24T12:49:00.000-06:00nowadays, bomb threats are taken VERY seriously......nowadays, bomb threats are taken VERY seriously... why wasn't it reported on the news? <BR/><BR/>following stone's incident, i'm sure everyone was watching the 50th... any developing story would've been announced all over.<BR/><BR/>brewer's camp seems awfully fishy. <BR/><BR/>i wonder what they come up with in the next 3 daysAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9074091195541549550.post-7207243143914528422007-02-24T12:45:00.000-06:002007-02-24T12:45:00.000-06:00Political insiders say Dolar has the BEST CHANCE t...Political insiders say Dolar has the BEST CHANCE to beat Stone!!<BR/><BR/>http://www.nbc5.com/politics/11097460/detail.htmlAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9074091195541549550.post-1522890725128041462007-02-23T08:06:00.000-06:002007-02-23T08:06:00.000-06:00Anon @ 5:54am: there's a difference between what I...Anon @ 5:54am: there's a difference between what I'm talking about and calling the police.

Not only was the choice of coverage irrelevant to Brewer's political abilities or the campaign, it didn't even look like they reviewed the text before they published it.
