Wishing bad on other humans is a sign of mental unwellness though. IMO I never liked Bush but I never wished anything bad on him. Because it shines badly on me to do so. indeed it is and karma also has a way of bringing to us what we wish for others another reason to be kind |

Thats California For ya! wasn't california's constitution that guaranteed his right to free speech. was the first amendment. I mean if you had the same conversation and someone happens to overhear you it's no big deal either, but he blasts it on you tube..did he say, "I am going to shoot Obama?" doesn't matter who it was as long as he wasn't president at the time. I think the significant part of the story was 'reasonable person' many people arent there have been many cases decided differently though where people WERE convicted for threats of this nature against public officials who were able to testify that they 'did feel threatened',,,, If OBama wasnt sweating it,,then there wasnt much of a prosecution,,, |

"the statute doesn't criminalize "predictions or exhortations to others to injure or kill the president," said the majority opinion written by Judge Stephen Reinhardt." Based on this it doesn't matter if he was president or not. |

You can't even kick someone off your front lawn if they are threatening you, You have to drag them into your home in order to protect yourself.....SO if a man makes a "verbal" comment online from a different state, How would they prosecute that when no physical harm has actually been done?

Your statement makes more sense than mine, i admit, i am just saying that with laws like that in place how can they enforce a free speech law? |

Easy.... Incitement to violence! Racial hatred!(in this case)
and if you give me a lil time, I can conjure up a few more LOL Didn't one of your congresswomen get shot in the head because of Palin's redneck insinuations and incitement to violence with weapons? EDIT* No one should broadly threaten a group or a person... Much less your elected leader... No matter what you think of him? |
