10/23   Teenager questioned for creating a My Space web site that
        says K|77 BV$H:
        http://www.cnn.com (click Secret Service finds girl behind ...)
        \_ Let's impound the MySpace servers!
           \_ We should but not because of this.
        \_ It is their job.  If they knew it was there and didn't at least
           talk to her and she later turned out to be psychotic and shot
           him then everyone would say they knew she was a threat and did
           nothing.  She wasn't kidnapped from her home at 3am by men base
           jumping from black helicopters, drugged, beaten, and tossed in
           a Turkish prison.  The idiot child got taken out of class and
           questioned at school.  Why was she taken out of class?  Because
           remarkably those are the same hours the SS guys are working.
           \_ I agree that nothing particular was done wrong, but why is she
              an idiot child?  I remember being (mildly) surprised to discover
              that it was a federal crime to say "i'm going to kill the potus"
              when I was a teenager.  It's not one of those things they teach
              in school.
              \_ It should be part of civics class.  I guess they don't bother
                 teaching anything so useless as how our government was formed,
                 how it works, or the philosophical underpinnings of our
                 nation's political system anymore.  I was quite aware of it
                 as a young teen, but Reagan was shot at the time so maybe
                 that's how I knew.  In any event, it is stupid to put your
                 name on anything, especially something easily searched like
                 your myspace page advocated *anyone's* death.  For that alone
                 she gets basic idiot credit.  For saying it about a high
                 official she get bonus idiot credit.  Next time it's black
                 helicopters, beatings, and turkish prison for her.
        \_ I can't watch the video, but I think it's funny that this sort
           of thing is still news when it's been standard procedure for
           decades.  I knew a kid who got pulled for questioning during
           the Clinton administration for sending a threatening email.
