How about "I don't know". I am guessing he's not. Whatever situation in whatever book he wrote, I am not familiar. Was it as utterly explicit as the cartoon currently under discussion?

You seem to be so intent on argument that you are missing the fact that I am in agreement with some of your points, and at the same time purposefully ignoring mine. If you think that such a graphic depiction as this cartoon portrays will not give some borderline crazies out there some bad ideas, you are kidding yourself.

And as I previously stated, the Secret Service does not play games. Have you ever worked with them as I have? They can not and will not ignore such a graphic statement of violence against the President, however it was intended.

I know, and he's most definitely not in prison. I would think writing about planes crashing into the White House, killing the President, Cabinet, and most of Congress, is fairly explicit enough.

So does TV make people violent? What happened to personal responsibility? I don't agree that it will make crazies out there want to kill the President any more than they already did.

I can honestly say I've never worked with the Secret Service. It doesn't suprise me at all that the cartoonist would be investigated, but I highly, HIGHLY doubt anything would come of it, especially when they discover the intent of the cartoon.

Also, it's early in the morning, and I haven't had my coffee yet. So if I come off argumentative or bitchy, deal.
