1. If he had small hard objects Bush would be injured now.

If the guy has dinner plates he's injured, or threw a camera.
Hit by a shoe, my ex threw a shoe at me once, hit me in the back of the head, it was so funny we stopped fighting and made up.

11. Don't we already have to do that?
I remember having to put my shoes in a bin and walk in my stockinged feet to pick them up the last time I flew, a year ago.

16. In this case the shows are a different kind of weapon: propaganda weapon.
I hope someone makes a good poster out of this video. And this may very well become a *ss tradition with Americans throwing out shows at him and chainy.

7. Is suspect the Secret Service was well aware
that there were no weapons in there.

Shoes they were less confident about. But yeah, meetings are coming.

15. Without wishing any harm to our departing president,
doesn't it make you sick to think someday he'll be getting a state funeral? Reagan was bad enough. I can't imagine trying to conjure up one nice thing to say when the time comes.

19. Yes but the shoes in this case are more of a symbol of contempt
that actually intended to hurt someone.

I sincerely believe that if they wanted him dead, he would be.

But the SS can only do so much. At some point the president has to take responsibility for himself and not do stupid shit that makes people want to do things like throw shoes.

36. I guess my problem is I don't watch enough TV
So I rarely know what the talking heads are blathering about.

I can't believe the extent to which many DUers take those clowns seriously.

34. Forget the Secret Service.
I'm surprised he hasn't killed himself just tying his shoelaces.
