How can we call this a society when people like JFk and Lincoln are shot, but people like Bush arent? I mean what is wrong with this world? The man who shot Bobby Kennedy, who ran against Nixon before Nixon was even elected, was shot by an angry palestinian, why was he angry? He pledged to give money to Israel. What has Bush done? Again, why wasnt he assassinated, he has four years.

Obviously I'm biased because of my political views...and the fact that I guess I have a certain respect for life...but at the very least this is flamebait...let alone completely distasteful and pathetic on the part of our many-numbered friend here. Beyond the obvious flamebait, I know that suggesting harm, or death, to other posters is illegal here...what about world leaders?

Hmmm, depends on where it was posted though... if its in general, it should probably be okay(pushing it though) but if he was making a direct point to a comment you made about Bush, then maybe it was. However, it was rather evil to say that, no one deserves to be assasinated, a lot of people think that Bush is either a very good or okay president... I try not to get too political, but that post really really makes my blood boil...

No.

Ah. The system works.

It was a whole thread. Nothing really to do with me. I'm just looking out for the population in general...lol.

Hack locked it down -- it had obviously devolved into a flamefest as well.
