Yankee Racist
ARTICLE
Jackson, Mississippi - A Wisconsin man was arrested on Friday in Mississippi after authorities said he threatened on the internet to kill president-elect Barack Obama.
Steven Joseph Christopher, 42, was taken into custody by the Secret Service in Brookhaven, Mississippi, and charged with threatening to assassinate Obama for what he claimed was "the country's own good", federal prosecutors said. The criminal complaint was sealed until Christopher's appearance in federal court.
Why did this asshole have to come to Mississippi to threaten to kill the first black president? It would've been a lot better for our image if "Jackson, Mississippi" wasn't tacked onto the front of this article. Did he think he'd find supporters here? Or do the racists of the world just think that all hate crimes have to be born in Mississippi?
How long until the media stops mentioning that he was from Wisconsin and just starts referring to "the big fat black-people-hating-racist who was arrested in Mississippi"?
I hope that nobody kills Obama, or tries to kill Obama. You know why? I have two reasons, and neither of them has anything to do with me giving a damn about Obama.
1. Things are bad enough right now, and if this hoohah can deliver on a fraction of what he's promised, we'll all be better off. If he gets killed, we're effed.
2. It would start a race war. I live in a state that is 40% black, so I really don't want any part of that.
I haven't seen all the coverage on this incident, but from what Tim says he saw, this guy was mentally ill, yelling about the end of the world and how everyone had to move to Florida to survive. Nobody has explained why he was in Mississippi.
I don't know what's had me on a warpath about this kind of thing lately, but I'm letting it go. For now.

It is all about sensationalism. I too am sick of the games the media plays on us - they think we are stupid.... sad thing is a lot of people do buy it...
I stay sane by choosing to believe in Kharma :)
The catfish sounds good - I'll have to try some now that I am a Southerner.

One of the women I work with said her daughter came home talking about some guy who "speaks in tongues" passing out a list of things he declared "God told me" at his church - one of them was that Obama was the anti-Christ and that the beginning of the end of the world would be Tuesday when he is sworn in. Really.
I, too, hope he isn't assassinated. If he IS, God help us all.
