Wow...I can't believe that I missed this one! All that I have to say is that the Secret Service did their job in investigating a pictoral threat to The President of the United States of America. They get tons of mail threats and investigate every one...why is the internet posting any different?

As for the treatment of a 14 year old not being held accountable...let's have a reality check here. If a 14 year old commits a crime, they are punished. If the same 14 year old handed out a flyer at school with their principal in the picture instead of GW, they'd be suspended from school and if the principal wanted too, charges would be pressed.

If anything, I'd imagine that she'd be charged with conspiracy.

partial definition...

Conspiracy also resembles attempt. However, attempt, like solicitation, can be committed by a single person. On another level, conspiracy requires less than attempt. A conspiracy may exist before a crime is actually attempted, whereas no attempt charge will succeed unless the requisite attempt is made.

Another thing...it had been a long time since we had Iceman quote scripture, Sky write a huge manifest, and moderators editing content...truely an interesting topic!
