(CNN) -- The U.S. Secret Service said Wednesday it was following up after a California man used Facebook to make a profane threat against President Barack Obama.
"Assassinate the f------ n----- and his monkey children," Jules Manson, 48, a onetime candidate for the Carson, California, City Council, wrote on Facebook Sunday, according to CNN affiliate KTLA.
Manson told the station he was angry when he wrote the post, "and I just wanted to spew out the most vile, hateful things toward him. That's all I was doing."
"We are aware of this matter and are taking appropriate follow-up," Secret Service spokesman Max Milien told CNN. He would not comment on the investigation.

(579 posts)If it's said about a Dem president or congress member it's "haha can't you take a joke?" or "I was angry and just wanted to spew the most vile hatred towards him and his entire family" or if it came from Fox news then it would be considered commentary.
