I think because he's black (excuse me, TAN) is a big reason why he should be careful. There are some crazy raciest assassins out there. And organizations.

The Secret Service has to stay on their toes. Racist organizations and hate groups...they've been against common black people for a long time, and I doubt they're going to ignore a black president. (Not only because it's a big goal, though It'd make a big statement about them too)

Those bastards will probably think they're heroes if they succeed.

Obama's shutting down the prison at Guantanamo. I like him already! :)

They'll either be released or properly trialed, obviously.

Or sent to a different prison.

I personally think the death penalty should be resurrected. Then prisons wouldn't be so crammed and it would deter future criminals.

Didn't you use to think death penalties were bad, and shouldn't ever be used, no matter what? Cause we don't have the right to send terrible people to their death? :P

I think that cruel and unusual punishments should be implemented.

For example: being forced to listen to Barney the Dinosaur's theme music 24 hours a day for the rest of your life would be a good punishment for a child molester.

I don't like the sound of that...

I think he was kidding, but I'm not sure. It's hard to detect a sarcastic tone of voice over the internets. :|

Yeah! If you're too dumb to tell whether or not a person is joking, you might think they're an idiot! :lol: Wouldn't that be something?

He seemed pretty serious to me. There wasn't the slightest hint that he was kidding. The only emoticons he used were:

:? :|

Actually, he didn't use any emoticons.

@spiral: wtf?

I was being entirely serious and I don't see why Shawn thinks I was joking.

I believe in the 'eye for an eye' treatment.

I was just thinking. What if a person came onto a forum and started making jokes...but somehow everyone thought he was being serious? They'd all call him an idiot, wouldn't they...

This, however, is the complete opposite. Whenever I make a joke, I either use an exclamation mark or a smiley of some kind... I see no reason why anyone would think I was being sarcastic.

OK, first off, I wasn't talking about the post he made here. In this topic. You know, the one I'm posting in?

^that one. Alright?

Secondly, I never thought you (I mean Xenon. You know, the mod? His user name is in green letters? His name starts with an X? That guy.) were kidding in the "Obama will be President after January" thread about how you think death penalties should never be used ever.

Thirdly, he did use those emoticons. No, he didn't use them in this post:
Xenon wrote:I personally think the death penalty should be resurrected. Then prisons wouldn't be so crammed and it would deter future criminals.
But he did in the "Obama will be President after January" topic. You know, the one I made a while back? January is spelled wrong in the title? Several pages that have nothing to do with Obama? Off topic forum? That topic.
