The Secret Service is investigating the circumstances surrounding an eye-opening Facebook poll that asked whether Obama should be assassinated, a Secret Service spokesman confirmed.
The poll, which has already been taken down, offered four possible answers to the question “should obama be killed?”: “yes,” “no,” “maybe,” and, perhaps most tellingly, “If he cuts my health care.”
The poll, of course, is only the latest example of the sort of viral incitement to violence that flares up when the sparks of anti-Obama hatred are fed oxygen by the bellows of the Internet.
