Threatening politicians with bodily harm was never a good idea (my wife used to have a client on her caseload who was overheard threatening George Bush Sr during his Presidency, and the Secret Service swooped in and disappeared the guy without a trace)...
Paul, Dear, when is it ever NOT dumb to threaten anyone - let alone politicians - with bodily harm? Only boorish louts would ever think it was a good idea.

Is this the same Will that always proclaims: "No one reads the Times"?
Will does.
