Until we see what was said it's a nothing story really. Either he said "Wish I could kick the PM's *bleep*" vs "I'd shoot that idiot if I got the chance"

Depending on what was said action should be taken, until that is known it's all speculation. IF someone was dumb enough to make a clear threat on Facebook, well enjoy what's coming because that's plain stupid, if they are making a mountain out of a mole hill I assume you will start calling him Fuhrer like you did with Harper.

Until anything is really known no one can really make a good opinion of what happened.

Would the police charge someone for saying id spit on his burger or id like to pop a ballon near him ? I dont think so

Another crank from the prairies. Was he also calling for a kudetah?

Probably just one of the THIRTY ONE THOUSAND that lost their good paying full time jobs last month ..

I'd be a bit *bleep* too , but I doubt the threat equates to anything but a primary school yard taunt at recess.

I guess we'll just have to wait and see , but I bet we have another "home grown terrorist" if the RCMP can spin it right THIS TIME.

Canadian police don't arrest people for "primary school yard taunts."

I believe that you mean "coup d'etat"?

They might if the PM Office asked them to.

Maybe the guy threatened to muss JT's hair.

JT could just go 'Chretien' on the perp - he is a boxing star after all.

I was laid off from 4 different jobs during the last decade. I guess these were all Harper's fault!

It's been a few days now.... wonder what the threat actually was?

I'm sure if it were that bad, it'd be all over the news by now.

People shouldn't threaten others including our Prime Minister.
I hope at the very least this dumb *bleep* gets the crap scared outta him.
