Should Gannon fear for his physical safety?
With the massive response to this story, I wonder if somebody isn't gonna take it upon himself to get some revenge?

Were I Mr. Gannon, I would seriously consider the anonymity that may be found in another country.

Personally, I just want to see him jailed, not Lynched.

1. No, but the Right would like to accuse the Left of such actions.
He's a laughingstock, not a target of violence. The whole "I fear for the safety of my family and myself" is just a ruse to excuse his sudden disappearance from public view as he comes under investigation from us lefties. He's not in danger of physical violence--but he is in danger of being completely exposed...and I think there's more to this story.

2. Maddy, I *know* there is more to this story.
I wonder what distraction they will engineer?

But I hope he really *is* afraid. He has at least that coming.

3. My advice?
Gannon should make sure that he wears a condom.

6. He looks like a Bareback Bottom to me.
He'd be right at home in most bathhouses...

I don't get it either.

10. That makes sooooo little sense.
I mean, I dislike the guy for being a shill for the admin and being a general dick, but I don't want to beat the shit out of him.

11. Funny how the bullies like to become victims when their worlds get rocked.
He's not getting threats; he just wants pity.

12. It's the feeding frenzy I am detecting.
I don't think I've ever seen such a response to anything, and I know that there are some people who are on the edge, like some of the vietnam vets I know who now do not have their VA medical care...

5. Republicans are the ones who like to get violent.
I'm sure some wingnut is thinking of being violent toward Gannon so that he can say he was a "lifelong Democrat".

:eyes:

Of course there are some scary liberals too, but in this case I doubt that liberals (who even know who this guy is) are trying to hurt this guy.

13. It depends what he knows...................
the Slugs could aways 'suicide' him. And don't think they wouldn't if they thought he was going to talk.

14. Male prostitutes should always fear for their safety
He should be more concerned about what his johns will do to him than what any liberals are thinking.
