Be sarcastic or make fun of Bush all you want, both well deserved. But when someone starts suggesting that the Secret Service is prone to shooting harmless hecklers it's not funny. Especially when you consider the views of the US around the world.

I don't think the SS would have been faulted if they did shoot him, for reasons I already stated. What if he threw a grenade?
It's also ironic that you would think its so far fetched, given the "views of the US around the world". The very country that invaded Iraq under the guise of WMD's - ie shoot first and figure it out after - also happens to employ the SS. Spin it anyway you want, but those apples dont fall too far from the tree.
