I already repeated exactly what I said, which was that I would rather see Bush dead than me dead.
But then, you know that, because you replied to the post. I added a qualifier because there were people who were claiming I was threatening to kill the Pres. Can you see how my words could lead to that conclusion?

While I don't think they do, I do see how a reasonable person could possibly get there. I think intent plays a factor in the determination of culpability under that statute. Only based on the totality of my knowledge of you do I think the intent is missing. In the two dimensions of this board the intent of the threat could be as readily ascertained by a reasonable man as could my insanity by some of my posts. It's the risk of the two dimensional conversation. there is a lot of reality based context missing.
