"The people who have made this movie, as well as those who have green-lighted it, have all now put targets on their heads.- Jim Wilson, San Francisco, USA"From the comment section of the article. There you have it people. Pretty much proof. We've grown past this as Americans, have we?
The problem is that the President is looked at as a symbol of America when he is in power. Talking about assassinating the President has the huge impact it does for the same reason burning the flag does... symbolism.Yeah, it would be sad if he was killed... but no more than if a guy in Harlem is shot. Nobody complains that the 'Godfather' movies represented dead mobsters.The whole relying on symbolism thing is ridiculus. Realize that the flag is a piece of fabric, and the President is just a guy with a job to do. THEY ARE NOT THE USA.So, in short, assasinating the President is not a bad thing (and may in some cases be needed - if a Hitler/Stalin type scomes to power). Killing a person (whoever that happens to be) is bad.
Wow, all i can say is that so many americans are hypocrites. how and where did so many of you screw up? to those who make death threats, what makes you different than those terrorists who cut peoples throats and make a video of it? hmmmm
Whether he lives or dies is irrelevant. The only thing that is of utmost importance is the survival of the Constitution of the United States of America. We can survive and function without a president but we can not survive without a constitution. 'It's the Constitution, stupid'.
this incompetent and inept weenie we know as "W" ( and I am a fiscal republican) is by far the worst president we have ever had- I loath this man and I wish him maimed for life -as compared to assassinated- why make this a-hole a martyr. He is so out of touch w society as a whole- Iraq is a quagmire that we will never get out of- I lost my father in Nam and here we are repeating history- sending our best and brightest into harms way - why doesn't he have his daughter's enlist and go over there- what an assh**e!!. As a former para w US army,I was all for going to any of the Stans to get Osama - but the moron thought we should let Pakistan help- and Osama is still alive and well because GW cant lead nor govern- as for environment, reasons alone this assh**e should be removed from office by the short hairs.... and what about cronyism and constitutional breaches - as for the movie- I wish everyone saw it - esp that jackass - so that he can see what most really want!!

@sanmanI'm talking about the reaction from people. Perhaps you could use some common sense.
