Mainly Though
by Urquhart
You just always wanted to have an excuse for a post labeled "Contacting the Secret Service". Admit it. It's OK.
no. they're not.
by catnapping

and that's the point. i'm not sure what has woolley so confused on this...

the whole point is that botf's problems have nothing to do with this. this occured before geoff even left, and has nothing to do with what geoff explained to you guys....unwarranted emails to the slate staff, and unwarranted 'reports of abuse' issues...neither of which apply to my contact with the secret service.

Now, that's the post I wanna write.

I have no clue what the hell he said but do you really think the guy was a threat? I just don't see it but I guess you never know do you?
Re: Contacting the idiot

So what you're saying then, LAM, is that if someone threatens your life you'd be totally cool if everyone around you just completely ignored it? I mean, especially if the guy was prone to making completely sexist comments that demonstrated a hatred of women? We should all just chill out and let it slide?

Good to know.

You're the Queen of stupid.


two different subjects..
by catnapping

the point is...you're claiming the slate staff's problems with bof are caused by me calling the secret service. that is not true.

the issue with doggydevil...well, too bad. i realize you like the guy, but he's a racist pig who sees nothing wrong with killing off civil servants, doctors, etc....who don't follow his narrow interpretation of the bible...

calling for the murder of anyone, let alone the president is an act of violence...but the president...well that's actually a felony, and for good reason. this nation is supposed to allow for the peacful transition of power...doggydevil and his white supremacist friends advocate the violent overthrow of our government. can you not see how dangerous that is...it's one thing to spout off in the privacy of his boat...or his home...but to take a public forum, and give instructions?

please.

In my opinion he crossed the line. Now, whether he was a serious threat or not, who can say? But that is not the point. He made what could very easily have been, and were, intrepreted as threats to Obama. Bottom line is...that is against the law. Whether you like Obama or not, which I do not, is irrelevant.

If he had been allowed to go unchecked, and then really did make an attempt to carry out his threat, and was perhaps successful, would everybody be saying....yeah, he said that but I didn't think he meant it? Just his saying the threat is illegal and should be addressed.

Cat did the right thing, I believe.

Jack

yeah. i prefer dogtags, myself...

but if you could just see the twinkle in his eye when he smiles...

swoooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooooooon thump.

I'm sorry. This is beyond my capacity to accept. It is ... unacceptable.

I don't know how to say this, but, I agree with every single thing JackDallas just said. Even the punctuation, grammar and spelling.

Clearly, the time. Has come. To. Go.

*sniff*

But wait! What idea through yonder window breaks?

Jack was just being contrarian? Perhaps even ironic?

Ok, maybe just one more day.

You're thinking right in this case, JD. I also said that many wander in here and read and never make themselves known...if one of the other nut-jobs out there like the plan he posted...

I know what you mean
by friday13
I agreed with him as well...be afraid, very afraid...
Me? LIke Doggie?
by Woolley
You have to be kidding. I have made no projections of fact on this matter at all. I just wonder why in the world you would contact the secret service for something he wrote. Sounds a bit strange to me. I think you need to chill out but then...maybe the guy is a whacko ready to go postal, who the hell knows? As for calling for the murder of Presidents, that is out of line but we just had a sitting Senator say AIG executives should commit suicide. Not that big a deal to me.
