It is a threat.

Show me where it directly threatened anyone. Where did they say they were going to kill anyone? You can't because it didn't happen. You know it; I know so get off your high horse because you know you are full of it.

Yeah. Right.

As posted earlier in this thread, go into an airport, make a few bomb jokes, and then argue:

I doubt that will take you very far.

To law enforcement officials, especially those in the branch that got severely burned back in '63, your objections will be met with cold silence - and not a single laugh.

And she has what political power in NZ again?

Her representative, the Governor-General, (appointed not by her) can dismiss the government in certain extreme circumstances, but is usually confined to hosting luncheons and cutting ribbons at openings.

I think Air America did it to drum up free publicity. How else does one explain us talking about a radio station with as many listeners as a college radio station.

I think it is clear who the spoiled brats really are. It is the jokers who suggest it is ok to assassinate the president of the United States. These people are beyond the pale and should be prosecuted and thrown in jail for as long as it take for them to learn the meaning of citizenship.

Prosecuted and thrown in jail for making a joke about killing the President

Don't they have to be found guilty of something?

Frankly, I don't care if the Secret Service are looking into it. It's their job to investigate every threat, even if joking. But, if it was obviously meant to be joking (which it was), the Secret Service will clear them of any wrong doing.

Kennedy was a 'good' man imo, in that he was a beloved pres. He screwed up the bay of pigs and should have stood his legal ground when the East German and their Rooskie owners started putting up the Berlin wall, and also got us started in VietNam, but wtf, my mom really thought he was cute...

Also he gave great conservative sounding economic speeches and his brother was a typical democrat rabid anti commie cronie of McCarthy...

Still, they did great things for blacks in this country and that makes up for alot.
