Carolyn Hileman - The Voice | April 24, 2008
GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. — A Gunnison lawmaker is asking the Colorado State Patrol for extra protection due to threats she said she’s received since gaveling down on a fellow member of the House of Representatives. Gunnison Democrat Kathleen Curry said she has been bombarded with threatening e-mails and telephone messages since bringing down the gavel Monday. She was responding to a comment made by Colorado Springs Republican Rep. Douglas Bruce, who referred to Mexican immigrants as “illiterate peasants.” Curry gaveled down and said “How dare you!” after Bruce’s remark, then told him he was no longer recognized to speak at the podium.
