Rapist get less than that:2 cents:

and all this time i haven't been raping? :(

I heard he had a 15yr old niece in the States that also likes to throw shoes.. Anyone hear anything about this?

Durka durka Alla Akbar!

:1orglaugh

What's the obsession with Arabs and their shoes?

he'll do less than a year

They're filthy, that's why throwing shoes is a huge insult.

too bad he missed

He deserves to serve every fucking day of it too.

If he'd done that over here he would have gotten alot longer, and deserved it.

its a shoe, not a bomb

Better than the 20 or so they initially proposed.

3 years? They didn't kill him?

It doesn't matter. He attempted to physically harm the President of the United States. It's no different than taking a swing at him if you were close enough.

That is a serious offense and he should be dealt with harshly.

A bomb, btw, would get him the electric chair. (Over here anyways, over there probably a noose)

I wonder if anyone ever threw shoes at Saddam...

Good for him.

Nobody that lived to tell about it.

The funny part is that under Saddam him and his entire family would have never been seen or heard from again.

Sorry, I think this is tasteless. I don't care who is throwing, why they are throwing it, or at whom they are throwing. Fucking Ahmad(insert flem here)inejad comes to the US and no one throws their fucking shoes at him....

Whats the worst thing that would have happened if the shoe connected? A black eye?

I think a few months would have been sufficent. Maybe a year. :)

So if I threw a shoe at Obama you think I should get a few months locked up? :1orglaugh

Anything more than a year would be excessive IMO. You aren't going to seriously injure someone with a shoe. Its more disrespectful than it is dangerous.

Thankfully you dont make the laws in this country. :1orglaugh

no you'd be a hero...


but we'd have every afro having idiot ignorant brova on our ass everywhere we walked....

but you'd still be a hero in my eyes....

Yeah, he got off pretty light didn't he? I'm wondering if he will make it out alive though.

I don't think he wanted to hurt Bush.

He deserves to be punished, not for hurting Bush, but for being so disrespectful.

This wasn't about insulting Bush the person, it was an insult to America because Bush represents America. It's like he threw shoes at every single American.

You don't like Bush you can voice your concerns. There is freedom of speech now. Throwing a shoe at him is not going to solve any problems.

Having said that, he should get probation. None of the shoes hit. And since we aren't charging him with terrorism or attempted murder, the punishment should fit the crime/consequences of the crime.

Fuck George Bush. I wish that fucking shoe would have smacked him right in his fucking head.

I think assault on the president regardless of it being a shoe and the president being Bush is pretty serious. What if it was a grenade thrown? It's pretty scary he got ANY projectile that close to the president.

i thought everyone was equal in a democracy? who gives a fuck if he's president or not, the sentence should not depend on the who the victim is.

Iraq isnt a Democracy. :error

Don't think he got the shoes back either...

Finally, some sanity.

democracy!

too bad for him

The opinions expressed in this thread illustrate a much bigger problem in our society, IMO.

People's opinions of whether this guy should be punished, and how severely he should be punished, are based almost entirely on their political affiliation.
We also have people here claiming you'd be a hero if you physically harmed Obama, and others saying it's a shame the President didn't get hurt when this happened.

Bush's policies made my blood boil. His incompetence frustrated me beyond description. Yet I never, ever, wished him physical harm.
He was still my President. Even if you don't like the man, you should respect the office.

How can you be "proud to be an American" and hope that someone physically harms or possibly kills your President?

Do you realize how democracy works? It means that about half of the time, the other guys win and are in charge. Do you only like America when the guy you voted for is President?

It's a really fucked up situation IMO.

too bad didn't hit bush

GOOD! Fucking animals... you may not like that man but have a little fucking respect for the position, this is why america rocks and they still have dirt floors

And what about more then million people dead because of that same president?

President Saddam Hussein is dead.

Sadam
 

Few hours ago, I saw older guy driving car,looking completely same like Sadam Hussein. There were three people in my car and we were all amazed. Very specific feeling :)

if that was true in their country then throwing a shoe at his neighbor would get him a year too which isnt true Im sure

so no democracy there I guess

Several hundreds of thousands of Iraqi people died because of the war.

Personally, I can see how someone who probably lost family and friends because of it would want to do rather more than say, "hey, I don't like what you did!"

You can say the same thing about almost any President we've had in the past 100 years. People die because they send troops, and people die because they don't send troops.

Civilized countries can't allow foreign heads of state to be attacked when visiting, AND civilized countries can't allow attacks on their head of state at home either.

That's the whole fucking essence of what I've been trying to say, we all disagree on certain things but at the end of the day, we're supposed to be civilized.
If you can only be civil with people that agree with you, then what does that say about you?

1,5 years per shoe

That's so stupid and fucked up. 3 years for throwing a shoe

Much as I disliked Bush, you cant go chucking shit at the President of the United States.

Imagine there is a country more powerful than America and it starts a war against you based on complete lies. Millions of Americans are killed and then the leader of that county goes for a visit to America, what would happen?
