A SCHOOLGIRL was quizzed by Secret Service agents after posting anti-George W. Bush comments on a popular Internet chat room, a US newspaper has reported.
Julia Wilson, described as a freckle-nosed 14-year-old who wears braces and has a love heart on her school backpack, was yanked out of a biology class at her school in Sacramento, California to answer agents' questions.
The Sacramento Bee newspaper reported that she posted a cartoon photo collage of a knife stabbing President George W. Bush's hand beneath the words "Kill Bush" on MySpace, which is hugely popular amongst teens.
It was one of several images the teenager had used to decorate an anti-Bush page on the website and prompted a visit to McClatchy High School by agents from the Secret Service and the Department of Homeland Security.
"I told them I just really don't agree with Bush's politics," the schoolgirl told the newspaper.

....said security services had over-reacted.
They don't overeact, they have to investigate any threat made to the president.
The sort that should receive a sound spanking and loss of privleges for a very, very long time. (But probably has parents who think it's "cool".)
Ain't it the truth!!!
she looks like a current model of squeaky fromm. our secret service takes threats like this seriously.
what also needs to be brought out, is the movie made of Pres W. being assasinated. Not only is it in poor taste, it should not be allowed. It makes that kind of thing ok, and makes the ss, have to work that much harder.
the 'school girl', teenager needs to be taught you do not go around making terrorist threats against the president of the U.S., no matter who or which party they are from.
I know this article has been posted before, and one indicated that was true. I haven't been able to find the other thread - YET. I'll continue to search for the other thread.
U.S. agents question teen - Girl ran anti-Bush page on MySpace
The girl committed a federal crime.
We have kids now going in a blowing each other to bits in the schools; how do we know this wouldn't happen to the President?
How do we know who/what her influences are? Sure some here dismiss it as MSM related, but what if her 'daddy' is actually planning to assinate the President. If not her 'daddy' maybe some of her friends etc.
I know the world has changed since I was a kid, but at 14 thinking about how to kill the President is serious stuff.
There is a violent streak in this chickie and more than the SS should be looking into the matter.
I found the other thread. See this reply showing political donations by her dad.

Notice how she is repeatedly referred to as a "schoolgirl". Usually it's "student" or "teenager" etc.
Australian press - I think it's just a difference of preferred terms between our media and theirs.
Yeah I bet..... I'd bet she was scared to death, crying like a baby, and begging them not to throw her in jail.
My thoughts exactly. I'm sure they didn't "yank" her anywhere, but the lib press could not resist painting the picture they want the sheeple to imagine it. Its called propaganda.

Lynette Alice Fromme was born on October 22, 1948 in Santa Monica, California. Her mother, Helen Benzinger Fromme, was a homemaker and her father, William Millar Fromme, was an aeronautical engineer and a graduate of New York University. All of the Fromme children (Lyn, as she has often been called, had two younger siblings) showed great promise as youngsters, but perhaps the one who stood out the most was little, red-haired Lynette. As a child she was one of the star performers in the Westchester Lariats, a local children's dance group led by Dr. J. Tillman Hall. The Lariats became so popular that they were eventually traveling all over the country to give Americans a taste of their singing and dancing routine, performing at such venues as the Lawrence Welk show and even the White House.
Has little to do with "free speech". Instead, it's a "threat to harm". She can say it as many times as she wants, of course, but we need jail her only once to protect the President.
And you know why?
The librat enemedia need another Sheehan victim to parade around for the election.
This girl and her family are being made to look like heroes.
If that's the same guy he's a total whackjob himself making those kind of donations ~ a Charlie Manson type if I ever saw one ~ no wonder I thought of ol' Squeaky.
Bosses hate to get involved on any kind of "personal" level - no matter how awful. They'd rather wait until the guy commits some heinous crime and then say, "But nobody warned me!"
This is nothing more than a 14 year old, with a child's brain doing what she hears and learns at home.
they both are democrats.
It just goes to show ya.. they think going into Iraq to future deaths is bad...
But they have no problem wanting to kill a few of our Republican leaders to stop future deaths...
Save American lives at the cost of a few foreign ones?
Or save foreign lives at the cost of a few domestic ones?
It's the same thing.. it's just they really would rather kill us first.
From another article:
"They yelled at me a lot," she said. "They were unnecessarily mean."
OK....
"Kill Bush" vs. Being yelled at by Secret Service
Who is the "mean" one?
