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?
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.”
Burning the national flag is protected free speech. On that standard, so is shooting a tee shirt. TFB, goons.
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.....

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.
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.
Maybe they were using Obama's cracker side for target practice?
To be young and stupid again instead of being old and stupid.
Whoa!! My favorite watering hole has that picture in the back of the urinal to improve the patron’s aim——I guess they had better watch out~
It’s a damn good thing none of them had a Bible!
:)
So, what would be the charge? If all they made publicly was this photo, without comments or threats, what is the charge?
Do you think they’d be charged with “Threatening the President”? Without stating what, why and how they came to be in the picture or to post this picture online?
If they can be found and identified, and also the poster of the picture, they’d no doubt be questioned by the Secret Service. But not charged. This is no illegal act per se.
Years ago, we had a FReeper here named Gonzo, who posted on a Clinton thread (when Clinton was still RIPOTUS) that the Clintons should be strung up on lamp posts. Later (some weeks or months), he posted to us all about how the Secret Service “visited” him and they all had a nice, little “chat.” I remember him say that the SS agent told him that subsequently whenever the President of the US, no matter who it was, came to vist his state (Gonzo’s, that is), the SS would pay him a visit to ensure he was “OK”.
Gonzo, if you’re still hear, did I get any of that wrong?
