Twenty-one-year-old Phillip Bailey is being investigated for suggesting President Bush being shot.
Bailey is chairman of the University of Louisville Student Non-violent Coordinating Committee. He says he posted a message on a Web site in response to someone else who suggested that looters in New Orleans should be shot. Bailey wrote that many people were simply trying to find necessities to stay alive. His posting called for shooting -- in his words --"every cop, national guard and politician who stands in your way, including George W. Bush if need be."' The Secret Service says it'll be up to the U-S attorney's office to decide if Bailey is charged with making threats against the president. That offense can carry a five-year prison term.  The Link I looked this info up and well i hope you understand...well tell me what do you think

QUOTE(mai_z @ Sep 8 2005, 9:18 PM) curious, what exactly is the topic of debate here? there isn't much to be argued.  I guess if what he said was a threat or not? But yah, that's pretty stupid about the secret service investigating it. It's not like he wrote "Hey guys, I think I'll go shoot Bush sometime this year." |
