I do not have search capabilities yet so I apologize if this has been posted elsewhere.

"At 9:45 last night, the Secret Service showed up on my mother's front door to talk to me about what I said about the President, as what I said could apparently be misconstrued as a threat to his life. After about ten minutes of talking to me and my family, they quickly came to the conclusion that I was not a threat to national security (mostly because we are the least threatening people in the entire world) and told me that they would not recommend that any further action be taken with my case. However, I do now have a file with the FBI that includes my photograph, my e-mail address, and the location of my LJ. This will follow me around for the rest of my life, regardless of the fact that the Secret Service knows that I am not a threat."

3. The lesson in this
is that some humorless tightbritches can bring down some grief on your head. The SS has no choice, they must investigate reported threats against the President, it's always been that way. So, if you're thinking about posting something intemperate, consider a bit of restraint.

4. So some freeper type reported her journal to the FBI...
I bet that whatever she said, one could probably take 2 minutes on freerepublic.com and find something more threatening...
