About this Petition Petition Letter Petition Updates

On Tuesday, Feb. 22nd 2011, Rep. Paul Broun of the 10th District in GA did nothing but encourage an audience member of his meet & greet who asked him "Who is going to shoot Obama?" According to reports, Broun allowed about a minute of laughter then responded with sympathy to questioner & audience at large by claiming he understands how frustrated people are with Obama's governing style. I was taught in US History that any verbal, written or perceived physical threat to the President was illegal. Why is nothing being done about Broun & his actions or the questioner? These kind of threats should not be laughed off-put yourself in the shoes of the Arizona families after last month's shooting at Rep. Giffords' meet & greet! If you agree this SHOULD NOT be laughed off please sign this petition!

A Congressman who seemingly tolerates with a chuckle the assassination of our sitting head of state should be condemned for it across the political spectrum.

Let's all help to make this a more peaceful world by not tolerating violence to anyone, we can agree to disagree without resorting to bullying escalated to death threats against President Obama!
Thank you
