NOTE: this is info from a previous thread, but I thought the phone call to the prosecutor's office was important enough for its own thread.
KMOV VIDEO - THREAT OF PROSECUTION FOR TELLING "LIES" ABOUT OBAMA
YOU ARE NOT GOING TO BELIEVE THIS!
I just called county prosecutor Bob McCulloch's office. I spoke with his secretary Cindy.
DFU: I saw the KMOV piece last night regarding the lies being told about Barack Obama. It is about time someone is doing something about this. Last night I saw a bumper sticker that said BARACK OBAMA IS A MUSLIM. I asked the guy about it and where he got it, and I think I may know the printer in St. Louis who is printing that bumper sticker. When I can verify the information, would Mr. McCulloch like to have that information?
CINDY: In light of what Mr. McCulloch has said, I would gather that would be something he would need to know.
Please tell me you are kidding? Please. . . This is terrifying.
There is no such thing as freedom of speech when it comes to being critical of 0bama.
The First Amendment has now been suspended.
McCain should ask BO at the debate tonight why a Muslim jihadist sympathizer paid BO’s way at Harvard. I’ll bet that is the first time a Muslim extremist paid for the Harvard education of a “Christian.”
I Hope (pun intended) someone gets caught just to set up a 1st ammendment showdown over this and gets to bring in all the Kooks/DUmmies and KOckSucks as material witnesses...
My father, who is from Missouri, fought against Fascism during world war 2. Little did he know his efforts would be undermined by liberal fascism in the 21st century
This garbage cannot be enforced. Political speech is absolute. You can say whatever you want about another candidate without repercussions. Political candidates are public figures and cannot be protected from speech even if it is a lie.
Hmmm... I would love to drive my car in Missouri, so if I get arrested, I’d sue the state. I would have a class action that includes BHO, too.
So, you called and told lies to the prosecutor’s office about lies being told about Obama and asked if that deserved attention?
Haven’t you heard of Caller ID?
Unbelievable. What shysters. Nice of the news to mention “the other side of the argument” isn’t it? Where was the mention and/or interview regarding the attempted chilling of free speech?
Nice to know St. Louisans are getting their money’s worth. With crime and other serious issues out the wazoo there, these partisan clowns worry about this.
Laughable.
While not a lawyer I was a Police Officer and a Correctional officer for a number of years. To make a CRIMINAL arrest, a Federal State or Local Law/ordinance needs to be violated. I am unaware except maybe under oath of an Federal or State law that criminalizes lying about another person. If arrested for “Lying” that Obama is a Muslim would not Mr Obama have to prove in a court of law that he IS NOT a Muslim for the charge to be validated. While Mr Obama may have a case for a civil claim I do not see how anyone else has anything to say about this sticker.
They wouldn’t dare prosecute anyone- they would become a laughing stock.
The point is intimidation. They are trying to make people fearful to speak out against the anointed one.
Politics, Chicago style.
So the people who say Obama is ready to be Presidnet should be prosectuted.
Clearly a LIE!
I gave them my name. Jennifer Joyce has my phone number. Let her come to California and prosecute me. I did not give the name of a printer and did not accuse anyone by name. Obviously, this was designed to smoke them out. It did.
People need to fight this.
“McCain should ask BO”...How did Hussein get into Pakistan in the early eighties?
CHILLING!
GIVE THEM THE NAME OF A COOPERATIVE FREEPER AND LET’s SEE IF THEY COME TO HIS PLACE OF BUSINESS!!!
AND HAVE VIDEO RECORDING!!!!!!!
So how would one go about getting one of these bumper stickers?
