Vote, Don't Throw Rocks!

A politician not far from my home voted on the recent health care reform bill in a way that raised the ire of many constituents.
Some high powered political forces have joined with local activists in vowing to defeat this representative in the next election. That is an honorable way of dealing with the issue. A case can be made that we need more citizen activism. If you are making the case, I'm saying "AMEN!"
Some citizens, however, have chosen acts of vandalism, as the way to make their point. One act involving a gas-line--which could have had disastrous results. Other folk sent threatening and/or vulgar notes addressed not only to the candidate but to family members.
I've been reading the book of Judges in my devotions. Trust me. We don't want to live there.
It is understandable when people get very upset about decisions that affect them, their families, and people yet unborn (in both senses of the words), but it is utterly unacceptable to register our protest, or vent our spleen in ways illegal, dangerous, or dishonorable.
It's STTA.
