2. I WOULD report him to the Secret Service.
Crap like that has to be nipped in the bud.

11. Yes. Either the Secret Service or the FBI.
And every time you hear one of thoses despicable remarks, tell that person you're reporting him/her. This shit needs to be stopped. Now.

19. Absolutely
A call or a visit from an agent may make him grow up and realize what he said is seriously deranged - or at least keep him from spewing his hate around you and your family.

If it were my family member I would feel compelled to send a copy of the e-mail to authorities.

4. A couple of people have said they heard these assholes saying "he'll die anyway."
Edited on Wed Nov-05-08 01:47 PM by Lilyeye
Anyone saying crap like that should be reported.

5. The nice people with the Ray-Bans need to have a talk with him.
Sad to say it sounds an awful lot like some of my relatives.

8. We should not take talk like this lightly,
and idiots should not be allowed to get away with it.

Here's the link to the Secret Service website: http://www.ustreas.gov/usss/faq.shtml

Scroll down to "How can I report a threat towards a protectee?"

This is America, and you do NOT make idle cracks about killing our President-elect.

Good luck.

9. An important illustration
Edited on Wed Nov-05-08 01:51 PM by FirstTimeVoterAt37
of something I think people need to remain aware of. Panicked animals are dangerous.

10. There will be plenty of genuine threats over the next four (eight) years. The SS will be busy
enough with the serious ones.

Someone predicting or even wishing for an assassination does not warrant siccing (sp.) the authorities on them.

Now, letting your family know what Uncle Crazy has said is another thing - and totally appropriate.

13. His talk is cheap, but I will certainly keep my ears opened.
I honestly am not sure what to do. I kinda agree with you on the serious threat thing. But, if he doesn't pipe down I won't hesitate. I am not going to maybe cause some one to lose anything because of stupid things said. I have heard people say some pretty nasty things in the las t 8 years about *. Just because the motive is different, doesn't make it any better.(legally, that is)

14. Goodness, so consumed by anger
In order to stay true to his ideals, I'm sure your uncle will not accept one dime more than he's currently making for the next four years, and refuse any tax breaks. Tell him to photocopy his last paycheck and be 100% sure that he doesn't accept any tax break. I'll even spring for the quarter to pay for the copy.

17. So he shouldn't accept any COLAs
I mean, what with the socialism of it all. I'll sharpen a stick for him so he'll feel safer in his cave. He can jab it at shadows that frighten him.

15. Report him IMMEDIATELY to the Secret Service. If nothing else, they need
to be keeping a list of the haters and threateners and violence-prone TERRORISTS.
