Airport Guard Arrested Over Obama Threats

Fellow NJ worker reportedly overheard him making remarks

Posted Oct 21, 09 2:54 PM CDT|

(AP) – A private security guard at Newark Liberty International Airport has been arrested on charges of threatening President Obama before the president was to fly there. A Continental Airlines employee reported overhearing John Brek make threatening comments at an airport coffee cart yesterday afternoon. The 55-year-old security guard was arrested several hours later.

Brek denied making the threats, said a spokesman for the Secret Service. Obama will be in New Jersey today to campaign for New Jersey Gov. Jon Corzine. Brek allowed police to search his Linden home, and officers found 43 firearms. The firearms were still being processed, but no illegal guns had been found.

Threatening the president is a crime. Even if you don't like him. Had this been Bush I would support the arrest and in case you haven't figured it out I wasn't a big Bush fan.

It doesn't matter which way you slice it, you make a threat against the president that sounds serious enough for someone to inform the authorities, you should be investigated. Doesn't matter which side of the aisle they are on. Unfortunately for you, they won't just investigate the people who threaten presidents based on YOUR support or hatred for them.

Oh that was different???...................... Yea right, more Republican b/s hypocrisy .............................." January 28, 2008 by Homeland Security NTARC News Filed under Incident Reports A man was arrested on Monday for making a verbal threat against President George W. Bush outside the fence at the White House, the Secret Service said.“We had an individual arrested for making a threat against the president on the fence line,” Malcolm Wiley, spokesman for the Secret Service, said. “He left behind a suspicious package,” he said. That prompted the area immediately outside the White House to be closed off to the public, he said. Wiley had no further details about the identity of the man who was arrested or what he was charged with."

shonagreg, 'flagging' is when a comment is hidden because it was deemed offensive. That comment was not hidden. It was given a thumbs down a bunch of times, meaning that many people disagreed with his statement. Jay does not agree with many people here and also seems to go out of his way to be rude as well. Those two things together make his post more likely to be thumbed down than if he was just one or the other.

But as I suspected Jayster couldn't document it because he sucks at the internet. Oh in case you're wondering Cheney had two incidences of having people arrested for daring to disagree with him in his presence, and unlike your laughable attempt at documentation mine comes from a real news source.

@ jay, timi , mzK – as it should be, any threat perceived to do any harm to the president of the us is taken very seriously. It matters not if you are liberal, repub, conservative, dems, independents or the common garden variety of nut case. nor does it matter if the prez is bush 1,2, reagan carter, etc. it has nothing to do about how many guns one has. what it does have to do with if you are overheard by anyone making any kind of a threat that may endanger the potus then you will be investigated, background checked and thoroughly interrogated. as it should be. if you take this lightly and take this as a joke, as it appears to be from your collective posts then i would suggest you test the waters. i would be interested in reading your comments after you have been put through the wringer. as it should be.
