So if someone had a dart board with Obama's picture on it would the Secret Service investigate the threat that someone was going to throw darts at the president?

The U.S. Secret Service is investigating the origins of a photo on an Arizona police officer's Facebook page that shows a group of armed youths posing in the desert with what appears to be a bullet-ridden image of President Barack Obama on a T-shirt. Max Milien, a Secret Service spokesman, said on Friday that the agency was looking into the picture taken of seven youths, four of them toting guns, that turned up on the Facebook page of Sergeant Pat Shearer of the Peoria, Arizona, police department. 'Any time information is brought to our attention where an individual or a group of individuals expresses unusual direction of interest in one of our protectees, we conduct appropriate follow-up,' said Milien.

Idiots.
This president? Yes.
“..was looking into the picture taken of seven youths, four of them toting guns,..”
Some people do not understand the consequences of posting online.
And a black T-shirt at that!
There was nary a word from the press or the left when Bush was done the same way over and over. I guess if I passed flatulence upon his picture a SS agent would be sent to examine the source of the offense.
White cop, white kids, likely one or more of the boys is/are son(s) of the cop. Obama’s racist hunt for “whitey.”
Yes, their groupings are all over the map.
Burning the national flag is protected free speech. On that standard, so is shooting a tee shirt. TFB, goons.
I do ask about my solution to saving money by storing gasoline
I do not store gasoline !!!!!
I won’t say what I really think.
Does that shirt say hope or nope?
Bullet holes? Looks like a bad case of closet moths to me.....

The idiocy here is wasting time on something so trivial. There may be real threats against Obamalini, and the SS (pun intended) needs to focus on those. The worst thing that could happen would be for Obamalini to become a martyr. He needs to be humiliated electorally like Jimmy Carter, and then live a long, long life being reminded that he was an evil failure.
It’s amazing how stupid people can be when Facebook is around.
Why the hell would you post this on the internet? Especially if you’re a LEO???
If it were a picture of Bush....no problem. But the Thin-Skinned One? They’ll probably all get 30 years.
Wussy stuff. When someone posts a picture of teens with scoped rifles and the riddled T-shirt, then the SS can start to look for a problem. At least to this stage, it is still not against the law to call little barry bassturd a scum sucking, lying all the time, commie devil. But with Eric ‘the Red’ Holder running the unJustice department, that right may soon dissolve also, so I’m getting in my jibes now, while it’s still legal.
And the TV programs, books, articles and editorials pining for the assassination of George W. Bush were meritless? They sell these things as targets everywhere, along with Osama Bin Laden’s.....the SS should grow the hell up and understand there are feelings out there that they cannot control with intimidation.
Were there any faces shown? If not, then no harm no foul.
