Sorry if this is a dupe.

1. Signed. I added comments that Radical Clerics who make terrorist threats.

I signed the petition. Here is what I put in the comments section:

This statement by Pat Robertson, along with his recent televised prayer that ‘there be more vacancies on the Supreme Court' (whose justices serve lifetime appointments), unquestionably meet the criteria for the official definition of terrorism:

Terrorism is: “The unlawful use or threatened use of force or violence against people or property to coerce or intimidate governments or societies, often to achieve political, religious, or ideological objectives.” (JCS Pub 1-02)

The U.S. will not tolerate terrorist threats of this nature from Radical Clerics like Pat Robertson. Our nation is currently engaged in a Global Struggle against Extremism, and that struggle is against ALL Fundamentalist Extremists including those like Robertson who make public suggestions of violence against world leaders or petition the Deity to smite U.S. Supreme Court Justices.

Robertson’s actions are extremely serious, and should not by any means be taken lightly by the U.S. Government or by the American People.

2. Excellent! All I could come up with for a comment was

"Not very Christ-like for a supposed man of the cloth."

[NAO]

3. I had to restrain myself from suggesting capture and detainment at Gitmo

His utterance was truly, and quite literally terrorist act. If some Islamic Cleric made exactly the same statements - nothing more, nothing less - the exact same statements - the U.S Government would NOT hesitate one instant to use all necessary force, including military force to capture and detain the terrorist.

I get tremendous personal satisfaction out of just thinking about Robertson in Gitmo. I hear (from Conservatives) that the food is really great there.
