Should the 10% that responded on Facebook that Obama should be killed be put in jail?

[racists(dot)us]

When some nut from our side said that Ann Coulter should be killed, she took it as a threat.

Yes. Just as the people that made the moveis and bought the tickets about killing Bush.

Cannot have it both ways.

Who thinks we should never pay taxes again ?

it would be considered by the fbi to be threat enough to investigate, and rightly so.
facebook has been in trouble in the past for not policing their site. they should have taken the "poll" down as soon as someone saw it and reported it.

I think they meant to say he should be "billed" it sounds like killed but is more accurate for the money they are spending these days.

Jailed? They should be given a medal of honor

[vertical and dangerous]

No.

I can't get my mind around the question or what kind of twisted mind would respond!

But put in jail, No.

I will admit to not being a fan of Obama's in any-way-shape-or-form, but to advocate 'assignation'!

We, America, will get through his administration without blood-shed in the White House!

And it's usually something raised by people who claim to support a constitutional document of rights. There are few crimes in which capital punishment is used and Obama has not committed them.

Wackadoodles.

I'd rather them medicated (under the mental health act) than incarcerated.
