Wingnuts Gone Wild

In the aftermath of the murder of Dr. George Tiller, it's good to see some officials are taking right-wing hate speech seriously. Crooks and Liars has the story of right-wing nutbag radio mouth Hal "Heil" Turner, an anti-Semite and white supremacist who was taken into custody by authorities for inciting violence against State of Connecticut officials on his website. In his website rant, he called for "direct action against these individuals personally. . .obey the Constitution or die." That was over the line of free speech, and the Connecticut State Capitol police executed a warrant for the nutbag's arrest.

One hopes that he'll spend some meaningful time behind bars, preferably as the girlfriend of the baddest dudes in the jail.
