clipped from www.newsmax.com Coulter’s $1.2 million home in Palm Beach, Fla., is one of 2,674 properties in Palm Beach County whose owners are confidential in property appraiser records, according to the Palm Beach Post. Homeowners seeking anonymity must submit an affidavit stating why they believe they require it. Exemptions are made for people in occupations that could make them targets — including police officers, judges, prosecutors, and child abuse investigators — and for victims of domestic violence, stalking, or harassment. In March, harassment came in the form of a greeting card someone delivered to Coulter’s home, which read: “You self-aggrandizing — sociopath! The only thing left after a nuclear war are you and cockroaches.” In one message he said: “Hey, Ann, now that you’ve moved to Florida and you’re in your 40s, did you know that you can join the Florida National Guard?” He also stated: “You love war until you have to put your own a** on the line. I don’t call that patriotism. I call it cowardice.”

1. Absolutely nothing in these messages you cite is threatening or out of the ordinary. It sounds like Ann can dish it out but can’t take it. When you carelessly throw racial slurs around and call John Edwards a “faggot” for no apparent reason, you’re naturally going to accumulate a large number of people who don’t like you. Most political commentators routinely get letters much nastier than this.

   If you think this is bad, I dare you to do a little experiment. Write a letter to the editor in your local newspaper saying that you believe the separation of church and state is a good thing and that it is wrong to discriminate against homosexuals. You’ll get much nastier and more threatening letters than this, trust me. Or better yet, write a letter to the editor saying that atheism is good. You’ll see how brotherly and loving some of your Christian neighbors truly are.
