I blame the leftist
climate of hate.
The FBI has arrested a teenager who sent threatening letters to former Alaska governor Sarah Palin, warning her to "watch her back" and claiming he had purchased a gun and a one-way ticket to Alaska.
Shawn Christy, 19, was arrested in Palin's home state of Alaska after Palin won a six-month restraining order against him in October. The order required that Christy stay a mile away from Palin's home and from a Wasilla-area high school. An order of protection was also issued for Palin's friend, Kristan Cole, who testified that Christy had been contacting her since 2009, sending her a letter with proof of a gun purchase and the claim that he had an affair with Palin.
In an interview with the Associated Press in September, Palin's attorney, Thomas Van Flien, said Christy had "risen to the top of the dozens and dozens of people" who have threatened Palin since she was tapped as the Republican vice presidential nominee in 2008.
Indeed, last fall an
order of protection against Christy was granted.
An Alaska judge has issued a six-month protective order against a Pennsylvania man accused of stalking former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin.
Judge Suzanne Cole found 18-year-old Shawn Christy stalked the 2008 GOP vice presidential candidate and ordered him to not follow or otherwise stalk Palin and to have no communication with her or her family.
The order comes after a 20-day restraining order was issued last month.
Palin and her lawyer have said the man from McAdoo, Pa., made implied threats on the phone, telling Palin he was buying a one-way ticket to Alaska and sending a receipt for a gun purchase.
Look what Shawn Christy likes on
Facebook.

Palin's parents, meanwhile,
live in fear from death threats.
Palin's father Chuck said a man recently had sent the family photocopies of a receipt for a gun he had bought, together with a photocopy of a one-way ticket to Alaska.
The family had laughed it off, but the man subsequently turned up in the state and was arrested by the FBI, Chuck said.
"We sleep with the guns," Palin's father admitted.

I would not be surprised if this gets about as much publicity as the proggie whack job that called in a bomb threat to Gov. Walker in Eu Claire, WI....
