bush's approval rating

[Ned]

Evil, Done. You are reported.

I hope you are aware that you have committed a felony in the United States by twice threatening to assassinate the president of the United States.

[Ned]

Moderators, I think it your civic duty to also report these threats to the proper authorities.

NeOmega, do you want to join the list of felons?

Are you for real?

[Ned]

atawa, these are criminal threats in the United States. I would think the moderator should do something. They might even have a legal duty to do so.

[Sandman]

Ned, I plan to kill Bush by crushing his limo between two logs, Ewok-style.

Do I get on your list?

[Ned]

Sandman, no, because you are obviously joking. Evil's posts appear to be authentic threats.

Actually, I've dealt with USSS on related issues, of a more serious note, in a rather different context.

1 - It's not a crime for a foreign national outside the US to wish all sorts of nasty things on POTUS

2 - It's not a crime to say you'd cheer, or that all sorts of nasty things should happen to POTUS.

3 - It is a crime to actually make threats to carry out an assassination attempt.

In reality, the latter is rarely prosecuted, and then generally when someone is starting to act in that direction, on their own, or in a group, but they're caught before you can charge for an attempted assassination or conspiracy.

In other words, to paraphrase Ming: CHILL, LADIES

Have you been making funny money again?

[MichaeltheGreat]

Nah, I subcontract that work out.

Ned, you taught me that the only thing that matters is whether or not the action is manly and not womanish. So, is it manly to be a tattle-tale?

JohnC, Note that I asked first to invite Evil to tone it down. He said go ahead instead.

[Ned]

Also, JohnC, I still would like to know where you get your information on world events. It's hard to debate issues when we do not even agree on the basic facts.

[Evil Knevil]

What a weenie.

Thankfully I'm a British citizen, so I won't get prosecuted until after I plug him.

Although Lazarus is right, I should focus on domestic issues and gun-down Tony instead. I think it'll be a helluva lot more satisfying to kill that smug bastard
