A Johns Island man faces felony charges after he called Charleston County 911 threatening to shoot President Barack Obama.
Kevin Daryl Salvo faces a single count of improper use of 911 for calling authorities twice early Wednesday morning with threats against the President and disparaging remarks against Democrats, according to a sheriff's incident report.
Salvo, 51, is not charged for the threats, according to Maj. Jim Brady, the sheriff's spokesman.
"Charleston County Sheriff's Office arrested Salvo on a charge of improper (or) illegal use of 911 as noted in the report," Brady said in a statement to local media. "He was not arrested for threatening to shoot the President."
In the calls, which came in sometime before 1:30 a.m. Wednesday, Savlo is alleged to have disparaged all Democrats and then made the threats. President Obama gave his victory speech at 1:00 a.m. Wednesday.
"**** all Democrats... The South will rise again," he reportedly told a 911 operator. "I will shoot the President."
Deputies responded to Salvo's Anglers Pond Road and placed him under arrest. He'll appear before a judge in December on the charge. The report also indicates he had been drinking at the time of the arrest.
re: eliminate all government programs surely you jest...or you just destroyed any creditibility you may have had for common sense solutions to america's problems... but perhaps you can restore some with an example of one gov program you would eliminate and what you would replace it with...FEMA maybe...social security, medicare...
weel, i wouldn't have...but may have enjoyed a beer w/W...NOT MITT...he was/is clueless as to how many of the 47% live from paychk to paychk...and the lives of benign neglect those w/ disabilities live...
You lucked out Kermit, somebody more stupid than you showed up.
Granted, they did it by shedding all those racist notions that are holding back the rest of the South. Good example: Birmingham was the south's industrial hub before Civil Rights. Then George Wallace turned on his water hoses, and every major business moved to Atlanta. And then there's Mississippi... The more racist and backward the state, the less likely it is to see economic and social prosperity. Thankfully folks such as this guy are getting pushed to the fringe of society.
win some,lose some, some rained out, as they say in the old country...but; i would have had a HISSY if MITTens had won...BO is a good, maybe great, president. history will rank BO in the top ten...nobel prize! 1st Black pres (two terms)! major healthcare reform! 2008 recession recovery!... oh/BTW: the country (ALL the people) does (do) better under DEM than GOP economic policies...and progressive DEM programs for students, po, old, and disabled folks (ie, all except rich white folks, the 1%ers) are better than failed, status quo, GOP programs. that said; very few presidents have much effect on most individual lives...unless they do something really dumb...like lying us into an iraq war...ie, friends and i would/will probably do just boot as well under either BO, W, or MITTens 11:03 am on Friday, November 9, 2012 I would be disappointed if Romney won, but throwing an anti government HISSY FIT wouldn't do anything to change the outcome. Life would go on and you have to adjust accordingly. In the larger scheme of things- a presidential term is really not all that long. Holding on to all that bitterness and resentment will only make a person miserable. You win some and you lose some- mature and decent people gracefully adapt to the outcomes and move forward.

SOUTH CAROLINA 1) First shots of the Civil War 2) Had the oldest senator...Strom Thurmond 3) The LAST state to remove the rebel flag from the State House....in 2002 4) The only state to publicly yell, "You lie", when the president addressed Congress
Way to go SC, better than expected. Sources http://www.floatingsheep.org/2012/11/mapping-racist-tweets-in-response-to.html?m=1 http://natmonitor.com/2012/11/12/geographers-create-map-of-which-states-sent-the-most-racist-post-election-tweets/
i don’t tweet and don’t fully understand derivation of the LQ number [racist tweets quotient]...but assume it factors in population and/or total tweets. LQ does provide a state comparison. if interested in specifics pls goto josch’s links. Tweets range from n-word to calling for BO’s assassination...to wouldn’t care if he was...etc. [CLIPS] ‘Mississippi and Alabama have the highest LQ measures with scores of 7.4 and 8.1, respectively. ‘The prevalence of post-election racist tweets is not strictly a southern phenomenon as North Dakota (3.5), Utah (3.5) and Missouri (3) have very high LQs. ‘SC 1.4; CA 0.5
