As union violence escalates, Mich. House Dems delete tweet promising 'there will be blood'

Earlier today, The Michigan House Dems proudly quoted state Rep. Douglas Geiss’ oh-so-civil promise of “blood” over Michigan becoming a right-to-work state. Then they thought better of the tweet:

The tweet was deleted shortly after union goons followed through on that threat by Geiss.

While the tweet is gone from the @MIHouseDems feed, it’s definitely not forgotten.

@MIHouseDems you can delete tweets all you want. We have screenshots.

Dear @MIHouseDems: Deleting a tweet doesn't make the problem go away. Once something's on the net, it lives for forever.

@MIHouseDems All the cowards who delete tweets are always Liberals. Amazing lack of balls. And forethought, of course. Typical.

Is an apology forthcoming? We won’t hold our breath.

Update:

Conservative radio host Dana Loesch wonders if the Michigan House Democrats are OK with the violence taking place in Lansing today.

Hi, @mihousedems . Do you feel bad about the violence now after you were suggesting it on the floor and online?

Hi @mihousedems , is this what you were talking about with your "there will be blood" Tweet? http://t.co/y0VdTprf

Hi @MIHouseDems , are you OK that a violent mob attacked a tent with people inside and shredded it? http://t.co/y0VdTprf

Good questions.
