MANCHESTER – Former Alderman Keith Hirschmann says he was just being "sarcastic" when he threatened to maim Alderman Peter Sullivan in a message on an online discussion board.

Does this sound like a joke?

"if you could please jay walk near the corner of pearl and elm, i'll do you the favor of not having to kill yourself."

"let's see @ 25mph how far an (unstable) would splatter ... 260pds of sullivan @ 25mph = velocity of 2x2, well that (would) put part of you near bridge st."

1. Jeez! It sure isn't a funny joke.
Surely this is embarrassing to him. Good!

3. I'm reminded of the old saying
Better to be silent and thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.

The more Hirschmann talks, the more foolish he sounds.
