wolfriverjoe 1,523 #51 April 19, 2012 Quote ...You posted pics of protesters during the Bush reign that showed similarly hostile posters that either did not get SS attention, or it just wasn't reported by the media. And we have plenty of the same going on now that also have not garnered much attention by either. .. The Secret Service takes most threats seriously. credible or not. Most of those investigations don't receive a lot of publicity. Nugent is receiving a lot of publicity because he's a celebrity. I'm sure there are a lot of folks saying the same thing (or similar things) as Nugent. They aren't receiving the publicity Nugent did, but I'd make a guess that they're getting some attention from the Secret Service,"There are NO situations which do not call for a French Maid outfit."

mnealtx 0 #52 April 19, 2012 Quoteone could lose his mind trying to track the nonsense you just wrote, so I'll rewrite. We got one slightly (to greatly) nuts rocker mouthing off about the current President who received SS attention for it. We have no record of a celebrity doing the same for Bush, so we can't conclude that the SS or the media play favorites. Is *THAT* what you're basing your argument on? Celebrity status? No wonder you're so lost. Celebrity status has exactly two things to do with the investigation: jack and shit. QuoteYou posted pics of protesters during the Bush reign that showed similarly hostile posters that either did not get SS attention, or it just wasn't reported by the media. *ding ding ding* No more contestants, folks - he FINALLY got an inkling of the issue!! QuoteAnd we have plenty of the same going on now that also have not garnered much attention by either. Which you know through what super-power, pray tell? QuoteYou're trying to suggest that Nugnent got biased treatment by both, but you haven't laid down a foundation for the argument. Nope. Didn't make that claim, either. Not sure what stretch of logic creates "they're picking on the Nuge" from "It gets the newsies talking about the SS investigating Nugent instead of underage Colombian prostitutes, so it's another PR 'win' for the Obama side".Mike I love you, Shannon and Jim.

popsjumper 2 #54 April 19, 2012 QuoteYeah, let's investigate Nugent and completely ignore the New Black Panther Party for putting out $10,000 bounties on American citizens. Gotta have priorities.

Not sure I agree with you here If the SS becomes aware of comments like this I would like to believe that they would investigate regardless That said, because a celb said it, the SS is more likely to become aware of it"America will never be destroyed from the outside, if we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves."

Now if they go on to post their pics on their public facebook page....well, that's just darwinism.
