Updated: Now WCBS 2 reports says it was a Newark Liberty International worker (not a former NJ state trooper) who was arrested last night for making threats against President Obama. "The nature of the threat is unknown. According to sources, the employee was arrested in his New Jersey home after a co-worker alerted authorities that the suspect made threatening remarks about President Obama. At some point after learning of the threat, law enforcement officials searched the home and found several weapons." It's unclear whether the threats were related to Obama's visit to NYC yesterday and NJ today.





the pig should have just worn his gun to the fundraiser last night.
Some of those who are in forces, are the same who burn crosses.
That's why nobody trusts cops that much anymore, and also why cops should undergo five-year training courses, with the fourth and fifth year devoted to humanities and social work-maybe then we'll get a better class of cop.
Not surprising. New Jersey state troopers are known for being over the top racists. Not saying all of them are, but that's their defining feature.
Have you been watching Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle again?
Sadly, the Secret Service probably has their hands full. Can you imagine how many threats against Obama they're investigating?
Please edit this article to reflect the changes to the original article. The man in question is a Newark Liberty International Airport employee not a state trooper and the quoted text in your post is no longer accurate.
It's so good to see that some American's will wait for the WHOLE story before passing judgment...not on this site, other sites. It is truly amazing how in love the White bourgeoisie are with the word "racist";they are probably the most (with the exception of the so called elitest left)sanctimonious and shallow people around. The most significant point in this whole story is the total violation of this guy's, and by extention,all of our civil rights! Mental midgets so intent on calling names, have once again chosen to surrender their rights in order to "go along,to get along" with the rest of the mob. Bottom line: Based solely on the word of some un-named "source",these Feds went into an American citizen's home and performed a search and confiscated his personal property! No PROBABLE cause nor REASONABLE suspicion, simply the word of someone in the dark.You drones love to throw the Nazi word around so much,second only to the "R" word,this is the way the Nazis and/or the Commies do things. At most, the authorities should have chosen to question the man at his job...(Airports are Federal land leased to the states)simply to let him know that he was being surveilled(watched). Good luck citizens; you best hope someone with a personal gripe against you doesn't inform on you...remember, it doesn't have to be true, it just has to be said!! Big brother loves us all!!!Suckers!
Thank you for updating this article!
smertypants has a good point.
what was the threat? word for word?
what is the meaning of early reporting stating "found several weapons" when later reporting confirms they are legally registered.
