Woman says she hopes Obama is assassinated
How stupid can people get? This dumb woman wrote on her Facebook calling the President the N word and saying she hopes he is assassinated.
She goes on to say that she's not racist because she has black friends.

Nope, there are "restrictions" that come with the freedom of speech. And especially in this case since it's AIMED at the PRESIDENT.
This would be considered treason against the United States and an act of violating public safety.
There have been numerous court cases which have defined the legal boundaries with use of the speech, and death threats [even if they may not be serious] are one of the restrictions.

The US Secret Service takes ANY talk of killing the President of the United States seriously. ANY President of the United States.
It's not something you joke about without consequences.
How does she not know what she did wrong? Any hinting toward assassination of a president is crime, and if it is not a crime, the secret service will find some way to get you in jail. People like this make me want to move to Canada, and honestly the pastures are looking pretty good over there.

[quote=abundance269]I like how thousands of people will volunteer to murder Romney and openly make plans to do so, yet when one person speaks against Obama it's a horrible crime.[/quote]
I haven't seen a single death threat against Romney..
Also, Romney is a nobody, Obama is the President of The United States, that's why it's taken more seriously.
@metaghost4: I seem them all over facebook, and quite a few a month or two ago. How could you not have seen it on Basil?

i like how people are over reacting so much to what someone of no importance said
I love the sighed "I guess..."
The fact that her FB friends most likely spread this around is pretty funny.
America is so violent o.o
[quote=PcPls123]lol Do you know how many ppl said this about bush when he was in office. Maybe not the N word, but White trash etc. I guess posting it on Fb was her downfall though.

I live under a pretty big rock called the internet, that shields me from anything important like that.
Assassins Creed 4!
[quote=zoneflare2]Ive heard at least 15 people say that the president should be assasinated many times during his first term[/quote]
They didn't post it publicly or they'd have been visited by the Secret Service.
Threatening the President is taken seriously by men in black suits with guns.

There were actually multiple attempts made during the race, but they were all prevented as soon as word got out.
Same for Romney.
^ nice basil name
Well technically it's not a threat. It's freedom of speech. There is nothing really they can do about it.
Don't worry, I'll get my level 168 Night Lord and assassinate her.
ugh... that has to be one of the worst excuses people make when being racist
worse yet, some people think it's a valid excuse
