I don't want President Obama to go to Dallas next week

I know it's irrational and emotional, but when it was announced he was going on the news, a chill when down my spine. I have worried about racist and nuts since the day he won the election in 2008. God be with him!

threatened President in modern times, but the Secret Service has kept him safe all this time. As long as he stays out of convertibles, he'll probably be fine.

The Secret Service & the local LEOs have got to be working triple time over this trip.

I am irrational and emotional right along with you, Chasstev365. I know he has to go, but I don't want him there.

I heard yesterday he was going to go to Dallas but I didn't even think of it in those terms. That really just shook me now with the realization of what you are talking about.

probably won't print a map of the route he'll take and I think they'll be very suspicious of anyone carrying "curtain rods" into their workplace. There's no doubt one or more RWNJs are thinking about how they could pull it off. Stay safe, Prez Obama.
