Update: Pardon our ramblings: Gabrielle Giffords & the tone of our discourse

Travis Corcoran was partially the subject of a recent blog post regarding the shooting of Gabrielle Giffords.  He even took the time to post a comment to my post - for which I thank him.

He was, however, in the news again today for trouble that his blog post brought upon him...
Bongiorno said police found the comment reposted on ComicsAlliance.com in a story that said Corcoran first made the comment in a blog. Bongiorno said Corcoran has since redacted the comments, but police consider the threat to be credible until they can prove otherwise. Police have also contacted federal law enforcement agencies about the comment.
From ComicsAlliance.com post - which goes on to quote the Boston Herald "that Corcoran has not been charged with a crime, although his firearms license has been suspended and a "large amount" of weaponry seized while police investigate his comments and whether they constitute a threat to U.S. members of Congress."

Many people should not express their private thoughts publicly.
