It's early in this thread's life. I am sure we shall be hearing about why this person should be getting life, the death penalty, etc etc etc. Not to belittle the crime, but I don't remember anyone going to jail for theatening to kill George W. I may well be wrong- but I just don't remember it.

5. Yet a few years ago, a guy who talked about a "burning bush"
got more time. As far as I know, he's still in jail.
Don't remember that case. Does anyone here remember it?
Oh... I was wrong!
U.S. Attorney Anne M. Tompkins announced that Ronald Thomas Brim, 28, of Walnut Cove, NC, was sentenced by U.S. District Judge Frank D. Whitney in Charlotte to 20 years imprisonment, to be followed by three years of supervised release, for using the U.S. mail to threaten the lives of former President George W. Bush and Former First Lady Laura Bush, for mailing threats to destroy the White House and Pentagon by explosives, and for using the U.S. mail to threaten Billy and Franklin Graham and others
Ah... there is more to the story than just threatening the President.
On August 5, 2010, a federal jury convicted Brim on three counts of making threats against the President; one count of making threats against a family member of the President; five counts of threatening the use of explosives; and two counts of mailing a threatening communication.
So, What did this other guy do to Barry?
Nicholas Savino, 42, was indicted by a grand jury last year after he referred to the president as the "Anti-Christ" and threatened his life in a message published in August 2013, according to a statement issued by the U.S. attorney's office in Pennsylvania.

6. well
this is amerikkka.
I guess the DUmpmonkiez are saying that Barry's threatener got off lightly because of racism?
This might turn interesting later.

It didn't really grow to much, even though it's a "natural" to incite primitive indignation.
