Obama Assasination Plot
Miami – Earlier today Raymond Hunter Geisel, 22, was arrested by the U.S. Secret Service. One of his classmates in a bail bondsman class apparently heard him say “If he gets elected, I’ll assassinate him myself.” in reference to Democratic Nominee Barack Obama.
According to the Secret Service he also made threats against still President Bush, saying he hated George W. Bush and that he wanted to put a bullet in the president’s head.
According to court documents obtained in a secret service interview he said if he wanted to kill Senator Obama he simply would shoot him with a sniper rifle, but then he claimed that he was just joking.
Apparently the man suffered from pshyciatric problems including PTSD or Post Tramatic Stress Disorder.
The Obama campaign did not respond.
What do you think of this? Is it the first of many or just one crazy guy?

Interesting how this guy has made statements about wanting both the SITTING president and the PRESUMPTIVE nominee of the Democratic party IF he gets elected (and he’s not even been nominated yet) and the spin the news, sounds to me that if this guy is really serious that Bush is the one who needs to be protected from him , so yeah the media is going to milk this to get more people to think it’s some kind of racial thing. I think this guy is just a nutcase, who probably does need to be put away somewhere

I WAS NOT GOING TO THINK IT WAS RACE RELATED IF HE DIDN’T MAKE DEROGATORY STATEMENTS ABOUT BARACK OBAMA TO ANOTHER STUDENT IN WHICH HE ADDRESSED HIM AS, A ” NIGGER” BEFORE UTTERING THAT HE WOULD LIKE TO ASSASSINATE HIM.
