When are these lowlifes going to start paying the price? Every single one of them get away with it.

If this was any one of us the SS/FBI would be at our door in 20 minutes with handcuffs.

They say anything they damned well please-——and then apologize. This is getting old.

His audience should apologize also-——they thought it was funny. Shame on them.

He needs to be locked up in the same cell as Kathy Griffin.

Or would that be cruel and unusual punishment?

What’s so amusing about inciting another lunatic to try and kill the president?

These people only apologize after they realize their mouths have cost them some big bucks.

The people who put him in his last movie are obviously PISSED. Nothing like a jackass actor turning off a few ten-millions of movie-goers

Such bullchit. Johnny Heroin Depp knew what he was saying, and said it with clear intent.

Don’t ya love how these libs play the game-Make a very serious threat, then back down and apologize and always claim it was said out of amusement or jest.

Until some federal judges start issuing arrest warrants, these insane liberals will eventually motivate another lone wolf attack. An example needs to be made.
