Police locked down the Tucson congressional office of Rep. Raul Grijalva (D-Ariz.) on Thursday afternoon after staffers received a package containing a "confirmed" toxic substance, a Grijalva spokesman said.

A suspicious package with swastikas written on the envelope was mailed Thursday to the Tucson office, where about a dozen staffers work. Upon inspection, it was found the package contained a white powder authorities later determined to be toxic, said Grijalva campaign spokesman Adam Sarvana.

This democratic congressman has been threatened before now, apparently soon after condemning the new illegal immigration law in the state of AZ. A disgruntled right-winger out there went to the trouble of sending him a swastika-plastered container with a toxic substance inside. When the right-wingnuts don't get their way, they resort to violence; terrorism, if you will.

Voting for the GOP this November? The perpetrator of this crime will be doing the same.
