Sorry, free speech does not extend to threatening the President.

No It doesnt. I imagine the secret service decides whats best in cases like this. I will not second guess their judgment. There is consequence for her words. The presidency is not just a man, it is an office that represents all of us. The death is fresh in her mind, its no excuse of course. Lets hope someday she understands.

I hope so, too. Going through life filled with hate is a horrible way to live. I hope she finds some peace.

I bet, though, if she was a man the Secret Service would be all over her.

Actually Freedom of speech does not extend to threating anybody. Elected offical or not.

Try saying this about your boss in this kind of public manner and you will get a visit from the boys in blue.
