Softec Responds to Violent, Racist Threats to Rep. Rhonda Fields

[madamesilverspurs]

Softec Solutions, Inc. just put out this statement regarding the violent and racist threats their Chief Operating Officer allegedly made against Representative Rhonda Fields:

SofTec Solutions, Inc. has been informed of allegations against our employee, Mr. Frank Sain. We are shocked to learn of these allegations and are taking this matter very seriously. If true, these actions are highly inappropriate and will not be tolerated. Pending SofTec’s investigation into this matter, Mr. Sain has been suspended immediately from further duties at SofTec. SofTec Solutions is a minority-owned, small business and we employ a large diverse workforce. We will absolutely not tolerate any racial, sexual, gender-based slurs or threats of violence by employees.

Franklin Sain, who reportedly said regarding Representative Fields, ""Hopefully somebody Giffords both of your asses", was arrested Friday for "suspicion of harassment and an attempt to influence a public servant" after threatening emails that were sent to Representative Fields were tracked back to his computer. He was later released on a $30,000 bond, according to Westword. Sain was appointed as Chief Operating Officer at Softec in 2011, according to this press release.

Sain's involvement was detailed in a story by Westword this morning. According to the arrest affidavit, numerous emails were sent using the words, "c*nt" and "n*gger" and one said, "I'm coming for you N*gger B*tch".

Sain is due in court March 8, 2013.

3. See this, "gun rights" supporters? This is who you stand with.

When you stand against meaningful gun safety legislation, you line up with guys like this.

I've said it before, I'll say it again: if you're tired of people calling you a monster for your opinions on guns, perhaps you shouldn't be standing so close to the monsters.

4. Don't lose sleep over him

he will be given a job by one of the companies run by right wing fanatics. They will be sure he is being persecuted for his opinions.

5. Sain made death threats against Rep. Fields and her daughter.

And he did this, knowing that Fields' son was killed by gun violence.

Sain ought to be horsewhipped, if you ask me. 40 lashes!
