Obama Threat

Filed under: Legal Matters > Politik > Barack Obama

raymond-geisel__opt1.jpg

No matter how much progress is made in society, there's still going to be those crazy asses out there.

Raymond Hunter Geisel, of Marathon, FL was arrested Thursday and held on charges after telling classmates at a bail bondsman training seminar that he would kill Presidential hopefull Barack Obama is he was elected.

WTF!

These threats come just days before Obama is scheduled to visit Florida.

Even more disturbing is that fact that authorities say after searching his vehicle and hotel room, Geisel was found to have a 9-mm handgun, ammunition, and other weapons.

Further searching found ammunition that included armor-piercing and rifle bullets. He even had body armor, a machete, police-style emergency lights, body armor, and two canisters of tear gas, among other military-style weapons.

Shit, he had enough ammo there for a small militia!!!!!

The Secret Service filed an affidavit in the U.S. District Court claiming that Geisel threatened to "kill, kidnap and cause bodily harm upon a major candidate for president of the United States, that is, Senator Barack Obama."

According to the classmates, sometime over the last weekend of July, the 22 year-old Geisel used a racial slur towards Obama and then proceeded to say, "if he gets elected, I'll assassinate him myself."

And, according to another classmate, one day after training, she claims she heard Geisel say "that he hated George W. Bush and that he wanted to put a bullet in the president's head."

That sounds like shit-talking to us. But this douche clearly needs psychological counseling!

Then, during an interview with the Secret Service, Geisel claims he couldn't remember if he made the threats against Obama and Bush, but he did say that "if he wanted to kill Senator Obama he would simply shoot him with a sniper rifle." He then claimed it was a joke.

If the Secret Service has you under questioning for threatening to kill the President, that's not a time to try and be funny.

And according to Geisel, he suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder, which affects his memory. He added that he had even checked himself into a psychiatric institution for treatment. Though he couldn't provide the names to any facilities he had been to.

As for the weapons, his excuse was that the gun he was using for target practice during training and that he used to use a machete and a hatchet for cutting through brush when he lived in Maine.

Geisel moved to Floriday in January of this year. He's currently unemployed and lives on a sailboat.

For those reasons, the judge decided yesterday to hold Geisel in jail until his trail as he might be a flight risk.

Geisel is scheduled to appear in court later this month on August 18th.

  10. 10

    CRAZY BASTARD!



  11. 11

    Obama is not as black as people think he is…lol
    -
    His white mom raised him and he grew up in Hawaii
    -
    So as an adult he is now becoming "black"
    -
    Oh well…Still undecided with my vote..



  12. 12

    Not to sound racist or mean, but this nation is FAR from being ready to be led by a black man. Despite our many advances in society and cultural acceptance, there are still way too many anglo-based roots in this country that would not accept or tolerate a non-white heading this country. I do believe his time would be limited if he actually won the election. He'd be another JFK, another Abe Lincoln. Sad but true.



  13. 13

    WHY DO EVERYTIME AMERICA WANTS TO PROGRESS AND CHANGE SOME WHITE RACIST DUSHBAG HAS TO COME WITH A LITTLE GUN WANTING TO KILL OBAMA JUST CAUSE HES BLACK,IF WE WANT AMERICA TO CHANGE WE HAVE TO BE MORE OPEN MINDED TO CHANGE.EVERYTIME WE HAVE A GOOD CANDITATE CRAZY PEOPLE WANT TO KILL THEM,ITS LIKE THEY ALWAYS WANT TO HAVE SHITTY LAWS AND A SHITTY HEALTHCARE AND SHITTY PRESIDENTS WHATA FUCK IS WRONGS WITH THEM????????????



  14. 14

    Wow what a sick idiot. Can't we all just get along?



  15. 15

    This is unbelievable and yet totally believable at the same time. Sigh.

    Re: Metalhead – You may be right Metalhead! In fact, I'm inclined to agree with you, but as long as he looks the way he looks, he's going to have problems in America.



  17. 17

    I have heard a lot of dumb people say this.



  18. 18

    that is just so stupid and ignorant.



  19. 19

    Re: Andy27 – Hey Andy, I hear this reasoning often and wonder, "When will this country be ready?". Seriously.

    Re: Metalhead – he's black enough to be hated by A LOT of people.



  21. 21

    I was wondering when that would start. Pray for the safety of the candidates.



  22. 22

    scary… what the hell is wrong with people? and why do half of the pyschos come from my fuckin state?



  23. 23

    white trash asshole needs to go shoot himself.



  24. 24

    The world sucks, because it puts up with discriminate behaviour such as racism and homophobia. But we have to also see that racism isn't just from whites, many black, asian, hispanic and etc people can also be very racist too, it's just there is hardly portrayed in the media. Homophobia is disgusting just as much as racism, people who think that somebody should be killed because of their sexuality is disgusting.



  25. 25

    This just the beginning b/c if Obama does become president guarnatee all the racists and skin heads will be trying to take him out. It's a shame that in these days and times there are still people like that.



  26. 26

    Who didn't see something like this happening?!?
    Bet there's more of a threat than just this guy. If one person is thinking like this….there's probably thousands more thinking the same way.



  27. 27

    Dude this kid went to my high school, he's a fucker, and has tons of problems! I can totally believe he did this, and hope he goes to jail where he belongs!!



  28. 28

Are you physically or just mentally and emotionally about 10 years old? Sad pitiful thing. I'll bet you were a sad little girl, weren't you? Did the other children make fun of you and you knew one day you would get them back? I'll bet you looked a lot like you avatar, your other self: twisted and ugly and so easily laughed at. Isn't that true?



  32. 32

    what do u expect from an unemployed, no good, bible thumping, uneducated asswipe that comes from down south.

    He looks like a product of inbreeding…



  34. 34

    The world is full of haters!
    Look at some of These People comments here!



  35. 35

    I can't believe this is still happening in that country… why racism exist??? we are people!!! dammit….. we are all the same inside!!!! is just skin color



  36. 36

    as ususal a person with three two first names… it's always the way it seems… people stop naming your kids with three names please



  37. 37

    THIS just proves my point…some people shouldn't be allowed to breed!



  38. 38

    i actually despise OBama and i don't think him or McCain really will bring alot of positive changes to our country, but he should be able to speak and feel safe. Some people these days make me embarrassed to be an American. If our fore fathers that founded this country saw how politics are ran today, they would be disgraced.



  39. 39

    For some silly reason when I first saw him running I felt relief and thought wow, finally. But never did I think (assassination) (for being half black). How innocent of me, for some reason I thought America might have made it to the “next” level, but we have barely just begun and if he is elected he will have to constantly 27/7 have to watch his back and subsequently waste millions of American tax dollars on security, body guards, protection, bullet proof EVERYTHING. Ahh, America the great!

    That Racist Bastard! He probably also doesn't believe in gay marriage. Where's his Ghost Costume? $10 says he has a Nazi symbol somewhere on his body.

    Re: LettyB
    Another piece to the puzzle reveals itself each day.



  45. 45

    OMH YOU USED THE WORD "MONGO" HA HA HA HA YOU TOTALLY GOT THAT ONE FROM ME PEREZ!
    That word describes this asshole quite well
    :)



  46. 46

    Unfortunately, I have a feeling this guy isn't the only one out there. There are too many "neo nazi" types who feel the same way (of note: 1 is considered too many in my book). I will be voting for Obama and I worry even now for he and his family. If someone can reach over and slice their neighbor's head off on a bus, why is the idea of an assassination attempt just "shit-talking"?

    Where's Jack Bauer when you need him. Although the plot of the first 24 was much better than this hillbilly loser.



  50. 50

    Re: fagsrus – No THAT was innapropriate. Stop preaching about not being discriminatory. Not all Southerner's are "bible thumpers". What, it's not okay to make a comment on someone's race or choice of lifestyle, but you CAN comment on their choice of religion and where they're from? How hypocritical and, quite frankly, immature.



  51. 51

    Re: buck – ahahaha… I know, right? The "land of the educated, open-minded people". The East Coast, mind you. haha. (Sorry, I had rude friends who always used to make fun of me being from Wisconsin and not being from somewhere smart and open-minded like the East Coast, or, "Where we're from". lol.)

    On a different note, I know I've posted already, but I want to make clear the fact that I think this bastard needs to be locked up for a long time. I thought people were getting past all this, but I supposed there will always be room for the wackjobs of the world.



  52. 52

    Re: theWATCHFULeye – I HAD ON ANOTHER POST COMPLIMENTED YOU ON YOUR AVATAR AND LIKED SOME OF YOUR POSTS, BUT NOW I SEE YOU MAY JUST BE ANOTHER FUCKTARD!

    Re: M from Toronto – JACK BAUER, THATS A GOOD ONE! LOL!



  54. 54

    Hmmm… my other post about ripping on Christians got deleted. Interesting. I never said this guy doesn't deserve to rot in jail, I just replied to another commenter who said "typical, bible-thumping, inbred southern boy!" This Geisel guy should be locked up forever. But, to people who don't like Christians and will try to draw some sort of connection between us and these people, lay off. We're not all psycho fundamentalists. That's all I'm saying.

    This isn't racism, he also threatened to kill President Bush. This guy is simply a crazy psychopath.



  56. 56

    Re: buck

    Did he REALLY threaten that in regards to Bush, or did it just sound good so someone (made it up) to make it sounds less incriminating on this crazy’s behalf?? I don't think he's a threat to Bush at all.

    At the same time if we look back, bush has had TONS of death threats as well, so I think lot's of American's are just plain crazy!



  57. 57

    :shock: Omg



  58. 58

    wtf ….he lives on a sailboat? haha



  59. 59

    Re: Sensible
    I wasn't attacking Asians at all i was saying not only white people are racist and using ALL races an example.

  60. buck says – reply to this


    60

    he said he "hated bush and wanted to put a bullet in his head" according to the reports. I guess we can take it for what its worth, just like "if he gets elected i'll put a bullet in him myself". This is a crazy lunatic and should be locked up…threatening the president of the U.S. is a crime.



  61. 61

    NO SURPRISE; we can all see this coming.

    So can McCain. In fact, I am surprised that Obama hasn't been asked by Chenney to go hunting!



  62. 62

    if he wins he better be ready cause there are lots of dumb fucks out there who are gonna wanna kill him.



  63. 63

    Re: LettyB

    Wow, that explains alot about you and your antics. Chip on your shoulder much?



  64. 64

    This guy's eyes are too close 2gether!!! I feel the need to draw him… I Love Obamarama!



  65. 65

    Okay, I'm not trying to hate on Obama here or anything, or say this guy isn't an IDIOT for saying what he did…
    but come on people! he was at a bail bondsman training seminar, what else do the people who do that for a living carry around w/ them? they can't all be "Dog" and carry only pepper spray. Some of these guys actually go after real bad guys…
    So I'm just saying. Just because the man was packing a small arsenal doesn't mean he was going to start a war.



  66. 66

    Re: Sensible – Asians play their cards right when they enter to this country. They look to marry any American, then they can get their immigration papers and leave their lives like any American. Next time you know they wil conquear this country. If you don't believe me just travel to San Francisco, Seattle & San Diego !



  67. 67

    Re: fill.in.the.blank – BULLETS THAT CAN PIERCE THROUGH BODY ARMOUR ARE ILLEGAL, SO NO NORMAL BAIL BONDSMAN WOULD BE CARRYING THEM. AS WELL THEY DON'T USUALLY NEED THAT MANY GUNS OR AMO!!!!

    So so so sad…. Yet another example why the black community feel the way they do towards some in white America. This serves as an example as to why bblacks also feel they can never reach equality in America. The US needs to catch up with the rest of the world.



  70. 70

    You can't say 'mongo'! I guess over in the US it must have a different meaning but here in the UK it's a derogatory term for someone with cerebral palsy. It's up there with words like spastic. Coming from someone like you; someone in a minority who has to put up with people using slang words for what you are to insult you, I think that's pretty harsh.

  76. 76

    Re: C-Murder

    Um, why would having black babies make any one bitter? White Americans seriously you need to get over yourselves. You're the only ones who believe you're superior. The rest of the world thinks you're collectively a bunch of simple-minded ignorant fools.

    Well the rest of the world and blacks can't sit on the sidelines waiting for America to say it's "ready" for a minority president. Fact is minorities will have to pursue their happiness despite how America may feel. America will have to get over its temper tantrum and realize that its not as homogeneous as it was in the fifties. The melting pot has given way to the tossed salad.

    Re: jilllovesperez
    but doesn't everybody have three names? Especially in the United States? A first, middle, and last name? :)

    The media puts out all three names if you attempt to assassinate a person of great influence:
    Lee Harvey Oswald (JFK…I believe he wasn't the only one. He just got blamed)
    James Earl Ray (MLK….As I said above, he wasn't alone)
    John Wilkes Booth (Lincoln…he wasn't alone. Three were hanged with him)
    Osama Bin Laden (9/11 and most likely a bunch of other sh*t we don't know about)
    Cho Sŭng-hŭi (Virginia Tech)
    Raymond Hunter Geisel (Hell, he tried to kill Bush.)

    I swear if that were to happen make no mistake in MY words like they tried to do with Miss Michelle Obama…..I will be DISGUSTED to be an American if they let this happen again…to anyone!!
