27 months in prison for saying "Obama must die". I guess the First Amendment is null and void!
Man who threatened Obama gets prison time Nov. 1, 2010 04:26 PM Associated Press DALLAS - A judge has sentenced a Dallas man to more than two years in federal prison for threatening President Barack Obama. A statement from the U.S. Attorney's Office in Dallas on Monday says Brian Dean Miller got a 27-month sentence without parole. He could have received a prison sentence of up to five years in federal prison for pleading guilty to posting a threat to kill the president on the Craigslist website in March 2010. He posted the message "Obama must die" the night Congress passed a health care overhaul bill. The posting said Miller was following through on a vow to become a terrorist if the bill passed. Authorities were able to track Miller through his e-mail address.
