Except it sounds like the Secret Service where doing exactly what they should have, they said he wasn’t a threat nor was the sign, they interviewed and left.

They should not have been called in the first place.

They “walked through” his home which was way over the line!

I guess the guy doesn’t have a dog as none were shot according to the story.

The SS overstepped their bounds. The sign itself would have been enough to squash this nonsense.

“Except it sounds like the Secret Service where [sic] doing exactly what they should have, they said he wasn’t a threat nor was the sign, they interviewed and left.”

So a search of a man’s home is now an interview? One thing for sure, the motorists of OKC won’t have to worry about seeing any more negative bumper stickers regarding Obama. Message received.

Good grief! With police state mentality like this, it’s amazing we weren’t taken over by the marxists even sooner.

They were doing exactly what THAT ONE wants them to....harrass and intimidate those who don’t lick Hussien’s boots.

Mr. Harrison now has a file....”for the children” or “for the public good” or whatever other excuses and catch phrases Obama’s thugocracy can come up with.

” . . . they interviewed and left.”

No, they didn’t. They walked through the man’s house, and that is a warrentless search. He did give permission, so probably nothing more can be said. But it is a way to intimidate him and the public.

Since the Secret Service itself had ALREADY stated that his sign was not a threat, they should not have desired a search of his premises.

"Except it sounds like the Secret Service where doing exactly what they should have, they said he wasn’t a threat nor was the sign, they interviewed and left."

In principle, you're right. But, for the rest of this guy's life he will have a file on him at the SS and the FBI. Regardless what the SS says to the man, he will forever be on a "watch" list of sorts.

I'm guess that the information they've already compiled on the man would be shocking to the average citizen. Information, by the way, which will be maintained and accessible forever.

Except, I’m sure the Secret Service knew what the sign said anyway, and still chose to “visit” the house of a private citizen expressing his political opinion. Scary stuff.

Except now he and his family are on the “enemies” list. How long before he gets audited by the IRS? Those in power now have more dirty tricks up their sleeves than we can even imagine. If you think I am kidding, just remember what happened to Joe the Plumber? or what is still happening to Palin? Years of corrupt Chicago politics are the training grounds for the Obama administration and these people know how to hold a serious grudge.

The definition of "hate group" is getting way too broad to feel in any way relieved by what the SS did. Remember the Missouri State Police "Truth Squad?"

Expect the race card to be played more than the ace of spades in Vegas.
