Man arrested outside Obama's home sentenced to five years
Sun-Times ^

The South Side man arrested outside President Obama’s Kenwood home with a gun last fall was sentenced to five years in prison today for his aggravated unlawful use of a weapon conviction.

Omhari Sengstacke, grandson of late Chicago Defender publisher John Sengstacke, pleaded guilty to a Class 2 felony before Cook County Judge Nicholas Ford last month.

The convicted felon, 31, didn’t make any threats against Obama in the Sept. 23 incident but repeatedly approached officers stationed near the then-Illinois senator’s home, saying he wanted to speak with Obama about getting a job, according to prosecutors.

In Sengstacke’s BMW, police found a .40-caliber semiautomatic weapon, a bulletproof vest and ammunition.

Five years in a prison means the guy will be lucky to be alive at that time....most prisons are filled with Obamaniacs, all having voted for him, I’m sure....he won’t be amongst conservatives, I’m sure.

WHAT?????/ for THAT he got FIVE YEARS????
Apparently the Sengstackes have no more political pull/
The name is very familiar to me, having living on the South Side for a few years, and in Chi most of my adult life.

I don’t think that unfortunately deluded woman’s grammar was quite as bad as you put it in your tagline. We strive for accuracy on FR.

Ummmmmm. I'm a conservative McCain voter with a goatee, a BMW and guns. He had a gun, a BMW and a goatee -- so I guess he must have been a conservative McCain voter?

The last man to kill a President was the Vice President.

Now you would have to admit having to be around Joe Biden could be a health hazard.

“wanted to speak with Obama about getting a job” maybe in prison he can be a community organizer.
