On Nov. 1, Castillo wrote the following on Facebook, apparently in response to Obama's views on health care:
That’s the last straw, if he gets re-elected I’m going to hunt him down and kill him watch the life disappear from his eyes.
Threatening the U.S. president's life is never taken lightly. After a tip-off from a concerned citizen, Secret Service agents arrived at Castillo's Melbourne home on Nov. 8 to investigate his intentions behind the Facebook post.

According to the felony complaint report filed by the Secret Service, an agent asked Castillo what his actions would be "if the President was standing here right now?" The angry man didn't hold back his opinions, replying he would “bitch slap him, and beat the shit out of him.” He also stated he would scream and call Obama a terrorist.

Florida Today spoke with Castillo's father, who is arguing that there isn't anything behind the allegations against his son.

“A lot of people say things on Facebook that they don’t mean, and I understand the Secret Service has to do what they have to do, it’s their job,”

37. Better Yet

when he gets to jail, a big strong guy named Bubba wants to be his "special" friend......

50. Do you think that RAPE is an appropriate punishment?

Do you think RAPE is funny?

[seabeyond]

58. you are new. rape jokes are rejected on du. they are not funny cute or clever.

can you edit or self delete your post, please.

[Ptah]

62. Hey Dave, you are not welcome in my community.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

2. The Secret Service is doing its highly appropriate job in arresting this idiot.

[DCKit]

3. They're going to HAVE to stop arresting pot smokers if we're ever going to have enough room...

to house all these nutbags in Federal prison.

There's going to be a tidal wave of 'em over the next two years.

[sheshe2]

6. What an Incredibly Sick Mind

"if he gets re-elected I’m going to hunt him down and kill him watch the life disappear from his eyes."

For this line alone he should be serving time not a monitoring device!
That just SICK

4. Nothing coming out of Melbourne, FL surprises me any longer.

[RomneyLies]

5. If a man could be put behind bars for making a burning Bush joke

this guy deserves to do hard time.

[Rider3]

7. Florida. Enough said.

[Quantess]

8. Keep an eye on this weirdo.

He sounds dangerous, in general.

[snort]

9. Latka?

Latka Gravas? After all these years is that really you? I just love Facebook.

[graywarrior]

10. First impression I got, too

The lights are on, but there's no one home.

[calico1]

13. LOL.

Reminded me a little of Berkowitz.

[montana_hazeleyes]

23. He does look like him. n/t

[grandpamike1]

12. Oh if we

could only say "just kidding"after a threat, life would be so much easier. Hope he is prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

[Buns_of_Fire]

59. ...and then the dumbass kept it up -- TO AN AGENT!!!

The spirit of self-preservation is not strong in this one...

[Chorophyll]

14. Glad this one has been removed from society.

Wow.

[Amonester]

15. That stupid f**kstick isn't a "Man"...

May "look" like one but a "Man" he isn't. So I object to the headline.

He is just a criminal-minded "boy" and an ignoramus to boot.

Too bad he's going to have to "learn" how to become a "man" in jail.

[griloco]

16. wouldn't he have to fight Tagg b4 he gets a title shot? nt

[DavidDvorkin]

17. I'll make my threat on Facebook! They'll never find me!

[Name Unpronounceable]

18. Used to be you could fume,

write out a letter, then come to your senses and rip it up before you did something crazy like slap a stamp on it and slide it into the mailbox.

But this genius not only "mailed" out his threat on Facebook, he was still in form when the Secret Service was interviewing him. It seems to me that he isn't one of those people who write things they don't mean. He meant his threat and should locked away for a long time.

[lpbk2713]

19. Aww, he was only trying to make El Rushbo proud of him.

It must really hurt to be that fuggen stupid.

[russspeakeasy]

20. I live in Florida. I make up 1/3 of all of the sane people.

[Ineeda]

24. Okay -- that's enough BS about the people of Florida.

Although I agree that there are way too many nuts and lowlifes here, there are a lot more than three sane people. Don't forget that four million two hundred thirty-five thousand, two hundred seventy people voted for Obama/Biden. That's 4,235,270 people, of which at least half are sane.
And back on topic - this dope should be locked up for a long time.

[Fuddnik]

27. I'm one of the other two.

[russspeakeasy]

46. Howdy..

[quaker bill]

44. And I make 3

[russspeakeasy]

47. Wow ! What are the chances that all three of us would show up here ?

[quaker bill]

60. better than you might think

[loyalkydem]

21. I for one

am glad the SS is making arrest. They need to make more of these types of arrest.

[BainsBane]

22. SS has got to be incredibly busy

with the amount of lunatics out there. Hate media, I'm sure, has no remorse over what they've created.

[Lucinda]

25. Gee...he's got two kids and another on the way? (as per FB)

Idiot.

[superpatriotman]

34. 'Idiocracy' to be more precise

The most prophetic movie of our time.

[marions ghost]

55. The most prophetic movie of our time = Idiocracy

absolutely.

[hrmjustin]

26. Hope he likes jail.

[msanthrope]

28. I wonder what his freeper name is. nt

[lpbk2713]

30. Does Mommy know you're using her computer?

[arcane1]

31. Does that mean we have to paint it some other color?

[silverweb]

33. Okay, NOW this is spam.

[font color="navy" face="Verdana"]You're not winning any supporters OR helping your cause this way, friend.

[WinkyDink]

32. Punk doesn't look so cocky there.

[MrDiaz]

35. great news

but i seen alot of threats against Rmoney as well, and i think those people should also be arrested.

[ret5hd]

38. on DU? point them out.

somewhere else? call the SS.

[brokechris]

51. I saw threats too

on Twitter during the election season.

There are a lot of nuts out there.

[MrDiaz]

54. yea

those are the ones i'm talking about. Of course i have not seen any on DU, we are civil here!

[heaven05]

36. vacant eyes

LIV. keep arresting them. Handcuffs should bring them back to reality.

[patrice]

39. mean? Guy seemed real clear on that. Thinking in VERY specific detail. Getting his jollies by

imagining something in a very specific way.

[geckosfeet]

40. they get cranky when they are going through cheeto's withdrawl

[justiceischeap]

41. Sorta looks like the love child of Andy Kaufman and Son of Sam. nt

[Island Blue]

53. Son of Sam

was exactly my thought as soon as I saw the photo.

[Norrin Radd]

42. Looks a little like Andy Kaufman.

[laserhaas]

43. You can't publicly threaten our institutions - even with good cause

We are a nation based on the Code & Rule of law.

Even if the bad guys pervert it - we MUST preserve it.

[calimary]

45. Did anyone notice one of the posts here?

Is this for real? Sheesh, what a world...

The amazing coincidence here is that same shirtless, FBI agent from the Petraeus affair has been exchanging a lot of emails with Christopher Castillo for some months.

Flirty, but nothing overt. Stay tuned for more details as they break.

48. Adding on: these goons are the only "products" hate-radio millionnaires "produce"

These stupid extremist ignoramusses are the only products FAUX $NOOZE is "good" at "creating" it's pathetic.

[Shilo]

49. looks like a relative of George Zimmerman

[outsideworld]

52. THE NEEDS to be a law to ban foxnews

its not healthy for the country

[marions ghost]

56. If we could get more effective laws

about what constitutes "hate speech" it might work.

Would have to be prosecuted, but at least it would give us a chance to ratchet it down.

"Free speech" can't be the cover for relentless hate-mongering. Nothing promotes violence more. Duh.

[riverwalker]

57. he's got Paul Ryan's eyes

sanpaku

[jillan]

61. And his father makes excuses for him. If that was my kid - I would apologize to the President,

and then do some serious soul-searching where I f-ed up as a parent, and then where to get my kid some help.


Yes, I know, the kid probably feels this way in part because of the way he was raised.

Sick.
