FBI: Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl's parents have received threats

[spanone]

Hailey, Idaho (CNN) -- The FBI is investigating threats against the parents of Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, the latest development in a case that has put the spotlight on the circumstances surrounding his capture in Afghanistan and release by the Taliban.

"We are working jointly with our state and local partners and taking each threat seriously," FBI Special Agent William Facer told CNN in an e-mail on Saturday.

Facer declined to detail the nature and severity of the threats, and a military spokesperson for the Bergdahls declined to comment.

Bergdahl's parents have not been seen publicly since the announcement last week that the soldier had been freed from five years in captivity at the hands of the Taliban in exchange for the release of five detainees at Guantanamo Bay Naval Base.

to enough rich and powerful old white men to be a problem for the 1%

[barbtries]

18. remember tiller the baby killer

remember the bulls eyes on candidates?

maybe when the whole damn thing just goes up in smoke. we're sick, as a nation, really sick, and i am reluctantly coming around to the belief that it will continue to get worse until it gets better, and for it to get better will take something quite radical and exceedingly painful. since we're run by cretinous psychopaths who apparently own the media along with the government.

[hrmjustin]

26. Well said!

[Terra Alta]

2. what kind of a lowlife

would threaten the parents of an American POW?

Oh, that's right, teabaggers, that's who. They have NO CLASS.

[Boomerproud]

15. No Class doesn't begin to describe these haters.

It's really become a mental illness. I am heartsick.

[warrior1]

3. The Republicans own this.

[GusBob]

4. Each. Threat. Seriously.

Federal State and Local authorities involved

THIS IS FUCKING INSANE!

[sheshe2]

7. This is now officially out of control!

Bowe and his parents do not deserve this! The haters club now sends death threats to the parents of a veteran and POW? WTF!

[spanone]

[blkmusclmachine]

9. Not surprised from a Republican Party that booed that Vet and chanted "Let him DIE! Let him DIE! Let

The GOPee has really gone off the deep end. Lunatics. Each and every one. No excuses!

[spanone]

[mopinko]

16. obama should pardon him now.

tortured and imprisoned there, lynched here.
stop the madness. close the book.

[justiceischeap]

24. How can you pardon someone who hasn't been proved to have done anything wrong?

And for that matter, do you think it would matter to 'baggers if Obama pardoned him? No, it wouldn't. I'd guess it'd make things worse.

[Phlem]

19. From one prison to another.

I wouldn't be surprised if the guy off'd himself. Great job Fux, go merica!

Seems like anyone in the news these days gets death threats. I wonder if they were less prevelant back when ya had to pay for a stamp instead of doing it via social media/internet. People can really suck.
