I think that there were some death threats to Obama... You'd think that we were, but it seems like our Country is not yet mature enough for a black president. Freaking sad if you ask me... Though I do understand where you're coming from, in regards to that is a TOUCH overboard. What are they going to do if he WINS???
I thought you folks had a well-established precedent for that. Which is a shame - he seems to be a nice guy.

In Denver, Colorado, where Democrats assemble next week, police are spending $18 million on equipment alone and will be bolstered by National Guard troops and hundreds of officers from surrounding suburbs. In St. Paul, Minnesota, site of the September 1-4 Republican nominating convention, police are calling on 80 law- enforcement agencies to provide 3,000 officers to supplement the city's 500-person force. The federal money is being spent for security measures such as fencing and high- tech camera-surveillance systems. More than 1,000 National Guard troops will help with communication and supplies in Denver, said a spokesman for the Colorado National Guard. More than 1,000 Minnesota National Guard troops will help provide security at sites outside the Xcel Center that are being used by convention participants, said a Guard spokesman. The North American Aerospace Defense Command, based at Peterson Air Force Base in Colorado Springs, will also participate. The Federal Bureau of Investigation plans to use a new version of a computer network that lets all its branch offices build leads on cases. The Coast Guard will monitor the Mississippi River near the Xcel Energy Center." http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601070&sid=aJgx7Uji1acI&refer=ho me ====================== (quote inserted randomly by Pegasus Mailer) rslade () vcn bc ca slade () victoria tc ca rslade () computercrime org Blessed are they who have nothing to say and who cannot be persuaded to say it. - James Russell Lowell victoria.tc.ca/techrev/rms.htm blogs.securiteam.com/index.php/archives/author/p1/ _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
