The chickenshittery of these 2nd A people is well on display as they, predictably, deny any kind of violent intent behind the "joke." These are the same fuckers who weep about the flag and their pocket copy of the Constitution and how they're prepared to shed blood to defend both. They need all those guns because of tyranny and freedom and Jesus! C'mon, big boy, don't back off now because the issue's up front. Say that you're prepared to do it, unless you're just all talk for all your buddies down at the range.

Just one observer's opinion, is all.
I don't understand how he is getting away with this. Forget ideology right now, she's a former Secretary of State, senator, and First Lady. If this isn't an example of shouting fire in a crowded theater, I don't know what is.
I doubt the Justice Dept. sees any need to fan the flames any further since seriousness of the message would fly right over his head and the heads of every small-penised gun-stroker enthralled by him, but yes...what he just did is very much prosecutable if they chose to interpret it as a real threat.
18 U.S.C. § 879 : US Code - Section 879 wrote:Threats against former Presidents and certain other persons

(a) Whoever knowingly and willfully threatens to kill, kidnap, or inflict bodily harm upon - (1) a former President or a member of the immediate family of a former President; (2) a member of the immediate family of the President, the President-elect, the Vice President, or the Vice President-elect; (3) a major candidate for the office of President or Vice President, or a member of the immediate family of such candidate; or (4) a person protected by the Secret Service under section 3056(a)(6); shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 5 years, or both.

We elected (and I voted for) a dead senate candidate. But he was running against John Ashcroft, so he was infinitely better.
Got a Rake? Sure!
