Well I did follow the link. Then I researched one of the people who made the tweet. She was a 16 year old girl on the cheerleading squad with trailer trash parents whose best friend works at Hooters. She colors her hair blond.
I’m sorry, but if this profile is for real, there is no way this girl could threaten the President. She lives in Texas and I don’t think there is any way she could know how to even find the President, even if her school took a trip to Washington DC.
The profile could be a fake, set up to allow someone to say shit like that . But my sense is the girl loved to say “nigger,” and somehow, in her crowd of idiot friends, it was cool to say. These are the kind of thing that if one person says it, it gives a lot of other people permission to say it. I bet all of them aren’t serious. However, there is also the possibility that someone who is serious…. naw. If you were serious and capable, you would not announce yourself. They’re just idiots.
Although I’m sure the secret service must investigate them, anyway. Ick. I just spent twenty minutes of my life tracking down one person. I don’t think it would take too much more to find out where she lives. She left enough of herself online. Did I mention that she and her best friend are both boozers and her best friend’s mother is on her friend’s case about drinking too much? Need I mention that I don’t think she’s much different from her friend?
Looking through her pictures reminded me of the Southern emphasis on beauty contests. She seemed to be all about make-up and whatnot. She changed her hair color often. They had painted their fingernails in weird pastelly lightning bolts at one point. They were Texans’ fans. They liked country music. Scary what people will put online. And yet, if they are idiots, kind of reassuring. Most of these people, I would guess, are not real threats.
