Texas man tweets New Year resolution to "Assassinate Obama".

"One of my favorite sites on the Internet is Vile Tweets. If you can stomach the stupidity, it’s interesting to see the sorts of things people will write when they think they are hidden behind the wall… or, if you will, under a rock.

This clown, for instance.

New years resolution= assassinate obama
from Corral City, TX

It only took a little while, but I know his real name. I know where he goes to school. And I’ve tweeted him to give him a chance to say if the guy in the Twitter picture is the same guy in the other pictures. They look pretty similar. They all have the same name. They’re all the same age, they all go to the same college in Texas.

We’ll wait awhile before pulling back the curtain. Give him a chance to reply.

The thing I don't understand is that people actually think this way. Would they actually say these things in public?? I'm so disgusted by that site.

And he's got people replying to him that they will help.

Looks like TBone's going to get some help on his New Year's resolution making from the Secret Service and/or the FBI.

I wonder if he was so drunk that he won't remember having tweeted it when he gets his secret service visit and his opportunity to share his fingerprints with the government?

Unless this guy does some fancy talking or has a really, really good lawyer, I think he might just get to see Huntsville, from the inside.

INSANITY.

Now we could certainly have a discussion about how Christianity may be a form of insanity, but really, do you wanna go there?
