The two cases are unrelated.

Great spirits have always found violent opposition from mediocrities. The latter cannot understand it when a man does not thoughtlessly submit to hereditary prejudices but honestly and courageously uses his intelligence.

Actually,hate is hate.

Everything you do is based on the choices you make. It's not your parents, your past relationships, your job, the economy, the weather, an argument, or your age that is to blame. You and only you are responsible for every decision and choice you make, period ... ... Wish more people would realize this.

The bullet through the window came from a random bullet that was shot into the air and came down and hit the window. The bullet was not inteded for the congressman office.

I don't think we know what the intent was for the bullet. Someone was firing a gun into the air in that area in the middle of the night. I don't think the police have discovered a motive. Cantor was receiving a lot of violent and anti-semantic emails so there certainly is plenty of hate on both sides to go around.

Later Thursday, however, Richmond police said in a news release that the bullet had been fired into the air around 1 a.m. Tuesday. It finished its arc back to earth at a sharp downward trajectory, breaking a window pane on the bottom floor of the two-story brick building where Cantor's campaign leases the top floor.

The spent bullet hit the floor about one foot inside the shattered pane. No one was in the building at the time. A police investigation has yielded no suspects.

I am well aware of the news story and I made my post in light of that. I put myself in this congressman's shoes. If I have been receiving violent threats and emails and then someone fires a gun up in the air outside of my office building in the middle of the night, that is going to concern me quite a bit. Who was in front of my office building with a gun? I doubt the congressman's office is in the heart of gang territory. No one should have been in front of his office building with a gun shooting it up in the air. That would certainly make me feel uneasy.
