6. Send him back, we have a whole prison just for him. We'll charge the feds 6K a night.
Brewer will take her cut and use the rest to build another.

17. Don't worry! He's not a terrorist, just charged with "unregistered" guns.
Even though he threatened to kill Obama and brought guns to DC?

2. Damn....
I was hoping it was Joe Arpaio. So they could finally put that bastard behind bars. Or in pink underwear in a tent in the middle of the desert in August, as he does to his prisoners.

8. Tell me about it... I live in NoSco right now to be close to work (nice, small apartment)
with my fiancee. We've both had our Obama 08 stickers scratched off, "Dump Mitchell: Obama's Socialist Tool" bumper stickers placed in our windshield wipers, and my fiancee's NEW Obama sticker had coffee/soda/something thrown on it. I left my Obama 08 sticker on, and put my Obama 2012 sticker beneath it (INSIDE my back window, so it was conserva-monkey proofed). In other words, FUCK these intimidation tactics. BRING IT ON, MOTHER FUCKERS.

<snip>

12 News has learned Patock threatened to kill President Barack Obama, according to one of Patock's neighbors.

"He talked a lot about government, how hated this president that was in here now, and how he'd like to dispose of him," Jimmy McFarland told 12 News reporter William Pitts.

When asked how Patock said he would do that, McFarland said, "He said he'd like to shoot him."

19. I imagine we'll see more of this since Tan Man is 3rd in line.
Obama and Biden need super, super security at this point.
