What do you do about what seems to be a threat posted on YouTube?

Even if this is a "joke", this piece of slime (check out the profile -- warning, very offensive language) is spewing hate speech.

I'm not a YouTube member and can't navigate their site well enough to find out how to alert. (I'm so spoiled by DU!) Or is this something for the FBI or the Secret Service or am I overreacting or ???

"Kill the hated enemy" BEFORE they give us the sex slaves? What kind of back-assward thinking is that?

7. I know, it probably never leaves it's basement. I thought it was a joke at first

but it's profile seems too over-the-top to just be a joke.

Not that I am sure they don't have plenty to deal with.




I also noticed this in their Q&A:

* How long do former presidents receive Secret Service protection after they leave office?

In 1965, Congress authorized the Secret Service (Public Law 89-186) to protect a former president and his/her spouse during their lifetime, unless they decline protection. In 1997, Congress enacted legislation (Public Law 103-329) that limits Secret Service protection for former presidents to 10 years after leaving office. Under this new law, individuals who are in office before January 1, 1997, will continue to receive Secret Service protection for their lifetime. Individuals elected to office after that time will receive protection for 10 years after leaving office. Therefore, President Clinton will be the last president to receive lifetime protection.

12. I didn't realize the Clintons were the last to get lifetime protection.

And I agree, the Secret Service can't be bothered with every idle threat. That's why I asked for input here, and you all came through.
